Not only is Nestle handsome—he has a brain and he knows how to use it! He demonstrated his focus and problem-solving abilities by working for four minutes to find treats hidden in a puzzle! He is spot-on with positive-reinforcement dog training, as well. And, he wants so hard to please humans, but has not had an opportunity to do much of that. He needs a human of his own and we hope that might be your family. He learned some basic training in a matter of minutes, and learned to be happy in a crate at his temporary short-term adoptive home. He needs someone very special! 

Handsome NESTLE, four years old, neutered, and definitely looking happy and healthy, came back to the shelter after a short trial adoption period. We are devastated for him that it wasn’t the perfect match, and will continue trying! It takes at least two weeks (and many times longer) for a dog to adapt and adjust to be what his family wants to be. We are grateful to Nestle’s person for trying. He is an available bachelor again, ready to try at another home! Will you give him a chance? Go to friendsofcampbellcounty.org to find an application.
