Nala - Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Columbus, Ohio

Nala is a young, friendly girl who came to Stop the Suffering through no fault of her own. Her owner was facing homelessness and moving to a place that did not allow dogs, and begged us to help keep Nala safe.

Nala is a wonderful dog with a sweet, social personality. She does well with other dogs and is reportedly good with cats. She currently lives in a home with four children under the age of six and loves them.

She is looking for a family who can give her the stability, love, and forever home she deserves.
