Nala

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

I’m a four-year-old pocket bully, and I’m what you’d call a proper little pocket rocket. I’m small, but I’ve got a whole lot of personality packed in, and I’m always up for being part of whatever’s going on. The thing I love most in the world is people. I want to be wherever you are — pottering about while you do the boring stuff, following you from room to room, and curling up next to you on the sofa when the day’s done. I do like my toys too, and I’ll happily entertain myself for a bit with a good one, but honestly, a cuddle with my person is my favourite thing. There’s one thing I need you to know about me: I get a bit worried when I’m left home alone for too long. It’s not my favourite feeling in the world. So I’m looking for someone who’ll help me build up my leaving hours gently, at my pace. To start with, that means someone who’s around most of the time — I’d love a home where someone’s in during the day while I find my feet. I’m a friendly girl and I’d be happy living with sensible children aged 11 and over. I haven’t had much socialising in my life so far, but I’d love to make some doggy walking friends — we’d just need to take it nice and slowly, with small introductions to begin with. I’d also like to be the only pet in the home, so I can soak up all the attention (and give it right back). My new home needs a secure garden with 6ft fencing — I’m small, but I can be quick, and I’d like somewhere safe to potter about. I should mention I’ve got a heart condition, so my exercise needs to be little and often rather than long and tiring. That suits me fine — a few short, happy strolls and plenty of sofa time is just my style, and it keeps me feeling good. Underneath all that, I’m a happy girl full of life, and what I really want is a forever home where I’m loved and part of the family. If that sounds like you, I’d love to meet you.

About Nala

What life with Nala looks like

Nala is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Jerry Green Dog Rescue in Lincoln.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nala, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Nala?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Jerry Green Dog Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Nala on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Nala if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Jerry Green Dog Rescue whether they will for Nala, what they require (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Nala already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for Nala. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Jerry Green Dog Rescue, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Nala isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Jerry Green Dog Rescue about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Nala and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?: TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
