Helping Labs Find Their Fur-Ever Homes
Remi  (now Nelly)
Hi! My name is Nelly (my old name is Remi, but we decided to change it
because it turns out there was another dog named Remi in the
neighborhood! ) and I have finally found a home that is just perfect for
me! I am two years old and I am ready to settle in for good!

I was happy with my new family from the start. Right when I met them I
was jumping for joy—literally! I’ve gotten better about not jumping, but I
still do sometimes. I have also gotten a lot better at sitting, laying down,
and walking on a leash. I am still learning how to stay, but that takes
time, and I know I’ll get it soon!

I have two brothers. They are cats! I think that they are really fun to be
around, although they don’t seem to feel the same way. I like to play with
them, but they don’t put up with that and run away. We will all be friends
eventually.  
I go for lots of walks everyday. I have a great neighborhood and town to walk in! I love it! Not even rainy days stop me from going for
walks; I have a pink raincoat! I also have a tie out in the backyard that I run around on and play fetch with a tennis ball. I love it, and it
really tires me out! Then I can come in and relax on my chair or my bed. I also love to play tug. I’m really good at it too! I never give up. I
have tons of other fun toys too, and I love my treats.  

I am very affectionate and I love cuddling. Belly rubs are my absolute favorite! I also like getting brushed and groomed, and I’ve even
had a couple baths. Those were a lot of fun! I behave very well at home and I rarely get into trouble. My family leaves the radio on to
keep me company. That makes me feel like I’m not alone. But when they get home, I am always waiting at the door! I just can’t wait to
see them!  

I am having a great time and I couldn’t be happier to be here! I have so much fun and I love my family! We all love each other very
much! Well, all of us except the cats… oh well! They will come around!

Xoxo,

Nelly
