Nala - Chihuahua and Rat Terrier Dog for Adoption in Austin, Texas

Nala was found wandering alone in a rural town we help. Someone contacted us to see if we could rescue her. Thankfully, one of our fosters agreed to bring Nala into her home, so we were able to save her. She has been in our care for 1 month, and she has completed her veterinary care. We hope Nala will get adopted soon and be loved forever!

Nala is a sweet little girl, and she loves any affection she gets. She does great with other dogs of any age and size. She loves kids and has been with children as young as 7. She is also cat friendly.

Nala is 4 months old and only weighs 8 pounds. We think she is a Terrier mix and will be a small adult. She is spayed, vaccinated for rabies, DHPP and Bordetella. She is also microchipped, heartworm negative and is current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention.
