I have Nellie now and she is a great little dog, shes great with my little boy, and has settled in quickly, sleeps in the kitchen and there isnt a peep out of her, she is extremely intelligent, sociable and very loving, and would fit into any home (without a cat) easily, she is a little pet

November 16, 2009 at 12:35 pm #89967geordieMemberthose pics are of nellie/abi with my husband who totally adores her she is gentle pretty sleeps at night toilet trained. only for our cat we would have her back today.
November 19, 2009 at 5:53 pm #90113trishafMembernellie is with me and my massive lab now (well she’s massive compared to wee nellie!)
nellie is quite a character! she will jump up and down like tigger when she see’s her leash or when she wants to go out to the toilet. everyone who meets nellie falls in love with her! show her any small amount of kindness and you have a friend for life in nellie! loves lots of love and affection but she will certainly return it.i am currently crate training nellie which she seems to have taken to quite well. she is fully toilet trained. (she had a couple of accidents the day she arrived but that was down to nervousness) she doesnt like complete darkness (it reminds her of the pound) so i leave a nightlight on for her and she sleeps like a little angel.
she grumbles a bit at cats but loves other dogs. is very calm with them and great with kids. she pulls a little on the leash but thats just because she is just so nosey, she wants to take everything in!!! i have gotten her to stop jumping up on the couches (she learns very quickly)
a great dog for any family (just as long as you dont have a cat lol)November 23, 2009 at 3:50 pm #90260trishafMembernellie is doing great. she now knows she is not allowed to jump up on the couch and is eating much better. she is sleeping very well and plays very well with my lab. she is also not in heat anymore!
November 23, 2009 at 4:44 pm #90280IndiannaMemberWell done Nellie, we may well meet quite soon!
November 23, 2009 at 4:46 pm #90281IndiannaMemberWell done Nellie, good girl.
November 27, 2009 at 10:56 am #90461IndiannaMemberHas Nellie got a busy weekend planned? Puddles to run through? Wildlife to hunt down? Home and family to keep a check on? Resting, maybe with a bone and a nice bowl of water? Whatever you are up to Nellie, have a good time.
November 27, 2009 at 9:29 pm #90491trishafMembernellie had a great day today! we went for a really long walk and she totally ignored a cat, which is great progress for her!
she has learned the ‘up to the kerb’ command and ‘wait’ then ‘forward’! so she is doing wonders! she still pulls on the leash but thats just her natural puppy curiousity.
she had a play date with my lab and my friends lab and golden ret. there was a bit of a kerfuffle with the other lab over a toy but they soon became fast friends!
she is eating very well now, practically licks the bowl clean now in one go as opposed to in the beginning when it would take a good 20 minutes to get her to eat about half of her food.
she still jumps up on new people when she meets them but settles after a few minutes and potters about her business of sniffing out anything of interest!December 1, 2009 at 6:24 pm #89863trishafMemberhey i was wondering how nellie was getting on? is she loving her new home? isnt she just a dote?
December 1, 2009 at 6:55 pm #90605geordieMemberhi indianna sent me a email saying she is good indianna brought her to work and she said all the vets loved her there
