Wonderful Nilly Needs A Loving Home and Family!

Looking for a new, furry best friend? Then, look no further - we have just the buddy for you!

(Submitted by Julie O'Bryant, Angels Publications)

Sometimes, change is a blessing.  Nilly has had a number of changes in her life.  She is a Boxer/Bassett  mix, sturdy and strong.  Her heart has had to be strong as well.   She was found wandering in the neighborhood, over this past cold winter.  As neighbors sighted her multiple times, over the weeks, Angels were alerted, and she was rescued from a life on the streets.

Her story became more apparent as our vets examined her.  She looked like she may have recently had puppies, although none were ever found.  She has been purposefully altered with clipping her ears and tail to make her look more like a fighting dog.  What was hardest of all forus to see was that she has scars…possibly from that same environment.

What never changed was Nilly’s heart and temperament.  She is a mellow soul who loves cuddling with her people, her tail constantly wagging.  She loves humans both small and large and is gentle with them.  We are not sure what she would think of other fur covered friend (cats).  She shows no unprovoked aggression, but is assertive with other dogs.

Nilly is perfect at 41 pounds, and only 4-5 years.  Angels made sure that she is forever home ready as she is spayed, chipped and has all shots completed.  This precious girl longs for a home with people who will love and adore her.  She would most likely be best as an only dog, so that she might receive all the love and attention from her family.  She may have had a rough start to life, but since being “Angelfied”, we see perfect behavior from her.  None of that pesky barking,no chewing, no inside accidents; she is a lady at heart.

Nilly remind me of Eliza in “My Fair Lady” - a true lady underneath a painful past.  Don’t delay,  if you have room in your in your heart to welcome her.  She is a treasure and is waiting for you.
