About Miss Nellybelle

Adoption Fee: $100
American Staffordshire Terrier mix
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female

Alias: 'Nellybelly' Miss Nellybelle ('Nelly') is a very lean, athletic 2-yr-old Staffordshire Terrier mix who loves to play fetch with tennis balls and glow-in-the-dark rubber balls! She will fetch without fail! She is 40 lbs, loves to snuggle, and has the softest coat. She is a crate training champion and excellent on a leash. She is looking for a soulmate, someone who will take her on woods and trail adventures, and be kind to her for the rest of her life. Her ideal home would have a steady routine and fenced yard. We would prefer to place her with a mature adult female who is often home (works from home, homemaker, retired). She is at times anxious around adult men and will bark-she prefers females. Her natural pack position is lookout ('omega' as Cesar Millan calls it); she is submissive with other dogs both male and female of any age or size. She prefers to sleep indoors in her crate near her people. We think she would be fine as an only dog, but we have watched her confidence grow around other more dominant dogs. During her time with us, she has peacefully coexisted with an array of other rescue dogs and cats, as well as small children. When she came into our care in June 2019, she was starving, very sick, and fearful. We have worked with her gently due to her past abusive experiences, and she is ready for the next chapter of her life! She is currently at the tail end of heartworm treatment and should test negative this summer. She has some chipped teeth (canines) and will need a dental exam and possibly repair work. We will cover the cost of any dental work. We can transport within NC. Miss Nellybelle is spayed and microchipped.
