Nala‘s Story

❤️Nala is Available❤️

Please READ the bio and adoption requirements first to make sure you are a perfect fit BEFORE APPLYING.

Hi there future furever family! My name is Nala! I am a female, one-year-old, Shih-Poo that could be best described as your best friend, shadow, and cuddle-bug. Right now I am only 12lbs, but I hope once I settle in with you, I will put on some weight.

I want to tell you up front I am VERY shy. My first impression might not be up to par with others, but I will be the sweetest, most loyal companion you will ever have. I love having my person within eyesight and next to me whenever possible. I love to cuddle! If you let me, I love to snuggle in bed with you at night and I only take up a little space!

Some of my favorite things are going for walks, chewing on bones, playing with tennis balls, belly rubs, and sitting outside on the balcony, watching everything around me. I’m crate trained, potty trained, and excellent on a leash!

I do have some things I am still working on. Sit and stay are difficult because I am so excited for whatever is coming next. Once I am in my crate, I am a perfect lady; however, you are going to have to help me because all I want is to be with you. I am also getting better when friends come to visit. I am still too shy to sit with them, but I will check them out to make sure they are safe. The one thing you should know, I never bite or nip. At least I haven’t had a reason to at this point.

My daily routine requires at least 3 walks a day. I am looking forward to the weather cooling down so I can go make new friends at the dog park.

Here’s what I’m looking for:
- 1 or 2 adults who want to hang out me all the time.
- No children.
- Dog-free home preferred. I like to have ALL the attention.
- I do like to socialize, so take me to the dog park or introduce me to the neighbor pups!
- I enjoy apartment living. If you have a small space, that is just fine! I just want some room on the couch next to you.
