About Nala

Nala is a young, adoptable hound mix who arrived from RACC and is currently in training at Fluvanna Correctional Center thanks to the Pixie's Pen Pals program.

Every day brings new discoveries about her personality and talents as she works toward completing her Canine Good Citizen test and learning essential skills alongside her handlers. Nala is house trained and gets along with other dogs. Her short coat makes care simple, and she will be ready for her forever home later this summer when her training is complete. Keep an eye out for updates as she finishes the program and prepares to find a family of her own. Make her next chapter a great one! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
