Meet Nellie. She’s a Black Labrador/ Australian Shepard mix. She loves people and she loves the snow. She also recently had a StoryCorps session dedicated entirely to her.

Nellie was given up for adoption by her former owner Kim (the lady in yellow) and for the past six years she’s made a home with Kim’s friend, Mike (the man holding the leash). Kim and Mike came to the StoryCorps booth to tell the story of Nellie’s life. In the photo above, the three are standing in front of Flagstaff’s City Hall which is a stone’s throw away from the booth.
