About Nora

Meet Nora! Nora, a beautiful 5-year-old lab and German Shepherd mix weighing 60 lbs, is known for her loyalty and warm-hearted nature. She craves companionship and will be your shadow—whether you’re on an adventure or just relaxing at home. This attentive girl is housebroken, crate trained, and has undergone obedience training. Leash walking is one of her strong suits, and she enjoys being involved in family activities. Nora's early life was challenging; she and her siblings were discovered abandoned in a box as puppies. With the nurturing care from a dedicated rescue mom, they blossomed into healthy dogs. Although her first family couldn’t provide the right environment, Nora is eager to find her true forever home. She would thrive best as an only dog or with a calm male companion, since she doesn’t get along well with female dogs. Supervision is also needed around cats. Nora is spayed, fully vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, and heartworm negative. If you're in search of a loving, loyal companion who comes with excellent manners, Nora is ready to be your girl!
