Meet Nala, your Sweet, Silly Little Shadow! Nala is a 20lb Chihuahua mix with an estimated birthday of February 12, 2023. She spent weeks wandering the streets, creating a little home out of a cardboard box and blankets, and following people, especially kids, just hoping someone would finally choose her. Now safe and thriving in foster care, she's ready to find the forever home she's always deserved. Nala is full of personality, playful, affectionate, and just the right amount of goofy. She loves her toys and will even toss them in the air to play fetch all by herself! She can be a little shy at first, but if you give her about 30 minutes to warm up on her own terms, she will quickly become your loyal little shadow, following you everywhere and soaking up all the love. Nala is the perfect mix of sweet, spunky, and snuggly, and she's ready to bring so much joy, laughter, and love into the lucky home that finally chooses her.
Ideal Home
Nala would thrive in a home that enjoys a fun, affectionate companion and will continue building her confidence. Another dog would be a bonus but isn't required.
Ongoing Health
Nala is fully vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed.
Training & Support
Nala is 95% potty trained and fully crate trained. She knows "sit" and "crate," and is currently working on "stay/wait." She walks on a leash but is still learning to stay focused because everything around her is just so exciting.
