This handsome older gentleman is NELSON, a 10 year old male husky mix that was surrendered to HOPE along with 9 others following a neglect situation. NELSON came to us in very poor condition, worse than all of the others so we quickly found him a wonderful foster home and he has since been doing very well! He is currently being treated for a pretty bad UTI. NELSON is still a little timid but he’s coming out of his shell and even has some doggy friends to play with now! He is a really sweet senior guy and just needs a home that will spoil him rotten, give him all kinds of special snacks, get him active and also just let him snooze away on a big comfy bed! He really likes his naps and has been very appreciative to be in a warm home where he can take as many as he wants. Despite what he’s been through, he has nothing but love to give.
