NELLIE
This beautiful girl is currently in local council pound kennels awaiting a rescue space ... we have NO kennels available and she needs a foster offer to help us get her into a home.
We believe she is around 3 to 4 yrs old and she has what appears to be a large hernia which will need surgery as soon as possible so local foster ideally please.
She is not showing reactivity to other dogs but we feel she would be best as an only dog in Foster or better still a view to forever to allow further assessment and to enable her to have the surgery and recover in a quiet home please.
If you think you might be able to offer this absolutely GORGEOUS girl a calm home for her to recover after her surgery (we bet you won't ever let her go if you do!) then please do complete the application form on this website, thank you.
