Nelly

Beagle Β· Unknown

Meet Nelly Nelly is a pretty, tri-coloured Beagle girl, aged four, weighing approximately 13kg. She is a friendly, affectionate and sociable girl who enjoys being around people and other dogs. She loves her walks, playing games and spending time with her family. Training and Behaviour Nelly is lead trained and wears a harness. She can sometimes pull when she is excited or eager to get out for a walk. She has not attended formal training classes but goes to doggy daycare, where she also receives some training. She is housetrained, although there have been occasional overnight accidents. Nelly has not needed to be crate trained. Nelly can generally be left alone. She has an established routine: when her owners play a particular Alexa sound, she understands that it is time to go to her bed while they leave the house. She usually settles on her bed, although on rare occasions she may become anxious, howl or chew objects. She is used to travelling by car, making regular 30-minute journeys to and from doggy day care twice a week. Nelly has been off lead in the enclosed environment of doggy daycare and a secure playing field. She has always been fine in the garden and has not escaped from it, although she did once get out through the front of the house when she was younger. Other Dogs Nelly is very sociable with other dogs and loves to play. She attends doggy daycare, where she enjoys interacting with her canine friends. When approaching dogs on lead, she may stop and wait to play, or simply walk past and have a sniff. Her owners report no aggression towards other dogs. Nelly could potentially live with another friendly, compatible dog, subject to successful introductions. Cats and Other Animals Nelly is not suitable for a home with cats. She strongly dislikes them and will stop and stare when she sees one out on a walk. Her owners say she does not usually chase, attack or approach the cat, but will remain focused on it until it moves away. She also dislikes foxes and may bark at sheep and horses if they are nearby. Food and Feeding Nelly is very food motivated and will happily eat almost anything! She can be tempted to jump up to reach food on kitchen worktops or dining tables, and will eat food left within reach when home alone. She may sit around the dining table while the family are eating, but will go to her bed when asked Nelly is particularly fond of food-based enrichment and interactive treat games. Home Life and Things Nelly Enjoys Nelly sleeps on her own bed, which is on a chair in the living room, although she does enjoy sleeping on her owners’ bed if allowed. She loves tennis balls, cuddly toys and interactive games that involve finding or working for treats. She also enjoys zoomies, long walks, trips to the beach and having space to run around in a good-sized garden. Above all, Nelly loves being with her people. She enjoys cuddles, relaxing on the sofa, following her owners around the house and watching the world go by through the windows. She is also partial to the occasional puppuccino! She will tolerate having a bath at home, although it is not something she particularly enjoys.

About Nelly

What life with Nelly looks like

Nelly is an adult beagle dog waiting at The Beagle Welfare Scheme in United Kingdom.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" β€” quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures β€” to let them settle.

πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nelly, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Nelly?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. The Beagle Welfare Scheme handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Nelly on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Nelly if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad β€” The Beagle Welfare Scheme will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Nelly already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported β€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Nelly isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work β€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with The Beagle Welfare Scheme early rather than rehoming privately; they know Nelly and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect β€” names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
