Nala - ältere Lady aus unserem

Kangal · Female · Senior · 9 years

Nala (born May 1, 2014) has been in the shelter far too long. She recently lost her best friend Yaman, with whom she shared a kennel for years. Initially skeptical of strangers, once she trusts someone she becomes affectionate and playful. Nala walks well on leash and enjoys short walks or activities in the dog yard with her caregiver. Due to her age, she's been included in the Nori project to improve adoption chances. She needs a ground-floor home without children, other dogs, or small animals, ideally with a garden. This wonderful female deserves to finally leave the shelter.

Unsere Nala (geboren 01.05.2014) ist schon viel zu lange im Tierheim. Nun hat sie auch noch ihren besten Freund Yaman verloren, mit dem sie die letzten Jahre den Zwinger teilte. Fremden Menschen gegenüber ist Nala erst einmal etwas skeptisch, wenn sie dann aber Vertrauen gefasst hat ist sie verschmust und (wie man auf den Fotos sehen kann) durchaus auch noch albern. Nala geht ordentlich an der Leine und macht mit ihrer Bezugsperson auch gerne kleinere Spaziergänge oder Beschäftigungen auf der Hundewiese. Aufgrund ihres Alters und um die Vermittlungschancen zu erhöhen, haben wir Nala in unser Nori-Projekt aufgenommen und wünschen uns sehr, dass sie auf diesem Weg noch einmal ein Zuhause finden. Das sollte ebenerdig sein, ohne Kinder, andere Hunde oder Kleintiere, und im Idealfall mit einem Garten. Diese tolle Hündin hätte es so sehr verdient, das Tierheim endlich verlassen zu dürfen.

How do I contact the shelter about Nala - ältere Lady aus unserem?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page.

Can I adopt Nala - ältere Lady aus unserem if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Düsseldorf will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner.

What happens if Nala - ältere Lady aus unserem isn't the right fit?: Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?: TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
