Meet Nelly
Welcome Nelly from Bradshaw Animal Services. Nelly hit the jackpot just in the nick of time with her foster and savior. This senior was almost out of time when her foster stepped in. Nelly is a 13 year old cattle dog mix. She is about 45 pounds. Nelly got to sleep in a human bed and eat a soft home cooked meal. She’s found a companion in the resident cat - the two enjoy going for walks together. Nelly is happy to meet everyone. She is just a lovely girl. Sweetheart to the max! Nelly is being scheduled for a much needed dental procedure. Volunteers raised money to help cover the surgery so it will be taken care of before she is adopted out. Nelly is chipped, spayed and up to date on vaccines. Nelly is in Amador City, CA More photos and updates: https://www.facebook.com/www.cchdrescue.org/ search in posts and photo albums.
