Nessie

Nessie thinks she’s a Lab. She would rather chase a ball than anything else. But she’s actually a very sweet purebred German shorthaired pointer, who is perhaps 10 years old with lots of energy.

Being mature, she is house trained and has good manners. She is able to put down the ball and play with other well-mannered dogs and she is happy to hang out with her people, also.

Nessie is spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated. She is at the El Dorado County Animal Services shelter in Meyers, along with many other dogs and cats who are waiting for their new homes.
