Nelson - Spaniel and Flat Coated Retriever Dog for Adoption in Boerne, Texas

NELSON - SOMEHOW, I GOT LUCKY!

Nelson is 4 months old, 15 lbs, and our best guess is a Spaniel / Flat-Coated Retriever blend.

Somehow, I ended up a stray.
Somehow, I landed at a shelter.
Somehow, no one came looking for me.
And then... somehow, I got lucky!

Apparently, my adorable face and ridiculously waggly tail worked their magic, because now I'm safe and ready for the good stuff!

I am happy, social, friendly, playful, affectionate, and absolutely LOVING being alive! I'm the kind of puppy who wakes up thinking, "This is going to be the BEST DAY EVER!" And honestly, most days are when you're Nelson.

I love people, I love making friends, I love attention, and I have plenty of puppy enthusiasm for whatever adventure comes next. My tail seems to have its own motor, and I'm pretty sure I could convince just about anyone that life is better when you wag your way through it.

Now there's just one more "somehow" I'm waiting for...

Somehow, I'd love to find my very own family.

A family I can grow up with, love with my whole heart, and remind every single day that sometimes the best things in life happen... somehow.
