NELLIE* - PIT BULL TERRIER / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Meet Nellie! Nellie was initially found in a good samaritan’s yard eating his cat’s food. Unable to find her guardian or keep the pup himself, he brought Nellie to the Shelter for safety. Since her arrival, Nellie has been very social – full body wags, jumping up for attention and giving kisses. Staff report that she is easy to leash up for walks and even walks nicely on leash. Nellie has done a meet and greet at the Shelter and was interested in playing. A resident canine may be a fit but are recommended to meet at the Shelter prior to adoption. We do not have any history of Nelly with children or cats (beyond enjoying snacking on their food). The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering “Pawsitivity Bucks” with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw! Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.
