Nellie

REHOMED
progress update: 18/9/12

Nellie in her new home with Staffy cross new best friend

Nellie has now found a home !!

Born 08/03/11

Nellie is spayed, microchipped and has up to date health check and
vaccinations. She has a healthy heart and has no health issues.
She eats twice a day once in the morning and once early evening.

She is a lovely, lively and energetic dog. She is not food orientated
but toys and play are her favourite. She will need some further
training as she is housetrained and will ‘go pee pee’ on command but
hates being left alone so if left for more than a couple of hours
alone may pee inside.

She is friendly and non aggressive, she adores children and other dogs
but may need some supervision on first introduction so she doesn’t get
too excited. She has a tendency as all boxers do to jump up to say
hello.

Her favourite treat is pigs ears, she loves water but is not a great
swimmer, long walks and an enclosed garden for her to run around in
would make her a very happy boxer.

She responds to sit, go down and bed but is not great at coming back
on a walk unless she is exhausted and then will come back for a toy.
She doesn’t like being on the lead if she knows that means she’s going
home. Her perfect world would to be outside all day with interaction.

She sleeps and rests in her own bed and knows not to get on the sofa (
don’t let her kid you she doesn’t). If the postman visits she has a
tendency if your not looking to eat the post, but usually she just
mouths it and will ‘leave it’ if you are home. She likes tummy rubs
and when relaxed sleeps upside down with her legs in the air with her
tongue out …..don’t worry this is normal.

 

One thought on “Nellie”

  1. I thought I’d give a quick update on how Nellie has settled in. Her and Rufus are now firm friends and would spend the whole day playing given half a chance, however they are both pretty rough in their play and I’m sure the neighbours think that they are killing each other as they are also very vocal. Nellie’s training is coming on really well,her recall is now very good and she can be let off the lead. I put this down to liver cake which she loves. She adores the beach where she can run around being as loud as she likes and be a complete nutcase. We love her to pieces, Thanks for letting us take her home Lorna, Tony, Fin and Rufus XXX
