A little about me...My name is Nellie. My mom calls me her Dapple Apple. I’ve been with my mom since my other owners passed away. Me and my bonded mate, we’re headed to the pound, but my mom heard about us and adopted us both. I’m a little love bug! I love to snuggle, burrow and stretch out on the deck in the sun. I’m a “momma dog” to the three other canines in the house—even though two are older than me! I’m a natural caretaker. I’ve survived Pancreatitis 3 times. My doctor said I have a medical issue that makes it hard to lose weight and effects my pancreas and liver. Mom tries to feed me “diet food” but I hate it!!! I do love Frozen green beans! I love my walks with mom. She lets me sniff EVERYTHING!! I love to bark at birds, and stray leaves falling in our yard! I’m a great protector!!!
