Meet Nala

Nala first came to us as a young puppy alongside her sisters, Storm A048826 and Raven A048827. A rescue had already agreed to take all three through our transport program, but the person who found them decided to adopt all three pups instead. Nearly a year later, all three girls were sadly surrendered back to the shelter through no fault of their own. When Nala first returned to us, she was scared and skittish. But you’d never know that to meet her now! Nala greets you happily, with a wagging tail. She’s blossomed into the happy girl we always knew she could be! She walks well on a leash without pulling, and already knows how to sit on command. It also seems like she knows exactly what a leash means, because she trots up and sits by your side as soon as she sees you grab it. She’s also quickly learned how to go up and down the ramp in our play yard, and happily shows off now without being asked. Nala hasn’t just grown in smarts, but in confidence as well. She enjoys being around people and getting attention from them now – especially if they bring her treats! She always takes them gently from your hand. While she’s friendly, she’s also perfectly happy to do her own thing when you’re busy. When you move though, she comes right back by your side just incase you want to pet her again. She has a calm, lower energy level and doesn’t’ need constant attention. Nala has already been through so much and come so far. Now she just needs someone willing to give her the chance to keep blossoming - and to show her that this time, she's home for good!
