Nellie came to me from an Australian Shepherd Rescue League. She was not quite 2 years old and had already been through two not so nice homes. One home turned her into the pound because her nails scratched the floor. another home, whipped her when she left their unfenced yard. She was afraid of most people, but still very obviously full of love to give. I had just found myself alone for the first time and needed a cuddlebug. Didn't take us long to connect. She has been/is the most loving pet I have ever had, such a joy and definitely my favorite photo subject.
