Nala

Nala is an 8-year-old, spayed female Shepherd/Retriever mix who weighs about 52 pounds. She was found abandoned in an area known for dog dumping near Houston, Texas. Luckily, a kind person spotted her and brought her into their home. Nala is one of the sweetest dogs you'll ever meet, with a tail that's always wagging, showing her joyful and easygoing nature. She has a peaceful presence that makes her a delight to have around, offering a wonderful balance of calm and playful energy.

Ideal Home

Nala would thrive in a home that appreciates her calm, loving nature. She's adaptable and would do well in a family with children, a home with another friendly dog (especially larger breeds), or as a cherished solo companion.

Ongoing Health

Nala is up-to-date on vaccinations and is spayed. No specific health concerns are noted in her description.

Training & Support

Nala is house-trained and crate-trained, resting comfortably in her crate for extended periods. She walks nicely on a leash and is generally manageable, though she may occasionally need a gentle nudge to keep moving. While she has good manners around people, she may prefer some space while eating, especially around unfamiliar dogs. She has not shown any guarding behaviors with food or toys.
