Nala's Story

MEET NALA - BEAUTIFUL, BRILLIANT & READY FOR HER FOREVER HOME! <br/><br/>Nala is a beautiful Poodle mix who is approximately 1 years old and weighs 28.6 pounds. She's a slender girl who could stand to gain a few pounds, but some good-quality food and plenty of love should have her filling out in no time.<br/><br/>And did we mention this girl is SMART?! <br/><br/>Nala has fantastic house manners. She is house trained AND crate trained and already knows an impressive list of commands, including sit, down, paw, wait, leave it, outside, and potty. Her recall is excellent, too!<br/><br/>At mealtime, Nala politely waits for permission before eating. She'll sit looking at her bowl until she's given the "eat" command and hand signal. Yep... she's that clever. <br/><br/>Right now, Nala is sporting a very short haircut because she came to us severely matted. Once that beautiful Poodle coat grows back, she'll need regular grooming to keep her comfortable and looking her best.<br/><br/> Nala likes other dogs and loves people.<br/> Cats are unknown, although she has shown very little interest in rabbits or squirrels in the yard.<br/> She's generally quiet and rarely barks - and when she does, she listens when told to stop.<br/> She LOVES children, but because she can jump when excited, we're recommending a home without toddlers or very young children.<br/><br/>Like many Poodles and Poodle mixes, Nala is an energetic girl who loves to PLAY - and she plays hard! Because of her play style, she would do best as the only dog or with a larger canine companion who appreciates her enthusiasm.<br/><br/>Nala is incredibly responsive to training. She initially jumped up when excited, but after learning "off" and "no," she stopped jumping on her foster within just a day. She genuinely seems to enjoy learning and making her people happy.<br/><br/>We think this girl could be an amazing agility dog or running companion for someone looking for an active best friend. But after the fun is over? She's perfectly happy settling down and lying at your feet. <br/><br/> Approximately 1 years old<br/> 28.6 pounds<br/> Spayed<br/> Microchipped<br/> Vaccinated, including current rabies and boosters<br/> Heartworm negative<br/> On preventatives<br/> House trained<br/> Crate trained<br/><br/>Nala has the brains, beauty, personality, and manners - now she just needs someone to give her the forever she deserves.

Save Monroe Strays's Adoption Policy
Thank you for your interest in adopting from us! We are an all volunteer, 501c3 animal rescue in southeast Michigan. Our mission is to place all of our animals in loving, permanent homes. You are not purchasing a pet from us; you are adopting a living, breathing, creature that deserves safety, love and care. Your answers on the application are assurance to us that the animals we care for are going to good, permanent homes. All of the information on the application is confidential. Feline adoption fees - $125 for kittens under 8 months, $100 if over 8 months, and $60 if over 9 years old. Canine adoption fees - $350 for puppies under 1 year, $300 if over 1 year, and $200 if over 7 years old. Foster-to-adopt and Adoption fees are non-refundable. We do not use a first-come, first-serve process when adopting out our animals. Instead, we focus on best fit for each individual animal. The process is intended to ensure a long-term successful adoption for both the family and pet. Dogs can live 10-15 years, and cats can live 15-20 years, so please make sure your lifestyle allows the time, patience, and ability to cover expenses your new pet will need over the years. Will you be travelling frequently, moving soon, or having children? Responsible pet ownership includes as-needed and routine veterinary care, quality food, preventatives, and other supplies. You must be at least 21 years old to adopt. All of our adoptable animals have had a complete veterinarian checkup. Our dogs and puppies are heartworm tested. All of our animals are spayed/neutered, dewormed, and have received age-appropriate vaccines before going to their forever homes.
