Nellie – Lucky Dog Animal Rescue

Nellie is a gorgeous, two to three year-old shepherd/hound mix from Lucky Dog Animal Rescue.  This sweet girl is crate-trained, has good recall, and while shy at first, bonds to her people quickly.  This girl is loves to play with her fellow canine friends and would be over the moon to join a canine sibling in her forever home.  She also gets along with cats!  Though she likes to play, she is not a high energy dog and is happy to chill in her crate or a couch – the best of both worlds!  If you think Nellie would be a good forever fit for your home, please contact Sheila.  We have many adoptable animals, so feel free come check us out at one of our events!

More great pets after the jump.

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!

Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.

Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
