About NALA

Nala is a sweet, playful, and affectionate 11-month-old German Shepherd mix who was rescued from a kill shelter. She was born with Megaesophagus, which means she needs to sit upright for 30 minutes after eating to help her food digest properly. This "snuggle time" is a wonderful bonding opportunity for her and her humans. Despite her special needs, Nala is a happy and active puppy who loves playing with her siblings and toys. She's incredibly friendly with everyone, including dogs, kids, and all humans, and has a low to medium energy level. Nala is vaccinated, microchipped, spayed, and fully house-trained.

Ideal Home

Nala would thrive in a loving home where she can get the special attention she needs during her post-meal snuggle time. She enjoys the company of other dogs and children.

Ongoing Health

Nala has Megaesophagus and requires upright positioning for 30 minutes after each meal.

Training & Support

Nala is already fully house-trained and is described as being incredibly sweet and friendly.
