Santa left an early present for us. His name is Nebula.

This adorable, cheerful little boy found his way to us late at night. His heartbroken mom was in a horrible situation and had no way to keep him safe. It’s easy to judge until you find yourself in another’s shoes. She asked us to find him a loving home, and we are determined to do that to give her the peace she needs. Neb or Nebbie is a two-year-old King Charles Cavalier, Cocker Spaniel, and Beagle mix.

A small thing, he was raised well. He loves other dogs, lived with a dog-savvy cat, is good with kids, and absolutely adores humans. He is house-trained, easy to handle, great in the car, and greets strangers with a wagging tail. He will leap into your lap for cuddles as quickly as he has leapt into and won all our hearts. He may not be a Golden Retriever, but he has a true golden heart. Nebbie is going to need a little extra help to get home from a Golden rescue.

Please share. If you’re someone in need of a loving companion (or have a fun dog that needs wearing down!), you have found your match! Please give us a call at (916) 655-1410 or email [email protected]. Nebbie is ready for home!
