About Nala

Nala is a 3-year-old Yorkie mix weighing about 8 pounds. This small dog is both playful and affectionate—she enjoys toys, loves cuddling, and gets along well with other dogs and kids. Nala is not friendly with cats. She’s housebroken and used to having access to a secure fenced yard but will need some training to feel comfortable walking with a harness and leash. Nala thrives in a home where someone is around most of the day. Her foster requires that adopters can provide a lot of attention and let her cuddle on the furniture—and Benebones are a favorite. Nala should not be left alone for long periods, so homes with people who work from home, are retired, or have flexible schedules are preferred. If your lifestyle doesn't allow for these things, it's best not to apply. Nala’s foster prioritizes local adopters to Maple Shade, NJ due to the need for home checks and meet-and-greets with all family members—both human and animal. A two-week adjustment period is needed in her new home without guests. Nala has epilepsy that is managed with lifelong medication, and her condition is mainly triggered by stress, so a stable, low-stress home is crucial. She is vaccinated, spayed, microchipped, and heartworm negative. If you meet all of her needs, Nala could be a wonderful companion. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
