ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:
ADOPTION FEE: WAIVED! I'M PART OF THE REWARDS PROGRAM AND MY ADOPTION FEE HAS ALREADY BEEN PAID. WE WILL ALSO PAY MY FOSTER OR ADOPTER $500.
HT has a number of dogs that need very special homes. These dogs have been failed by humans along the way, leaving them homeless and with issues from their treatment. We'll be honest. Some of them are real jerks. But not always. And not to everyone. Not everyone can be charming ALL the time, right? Others are just fearful and don't like other animals because they have had a bad interaction at some point. Some of them love other dogs but are just plain scared of everything. But all of them are good on the inside. And we believe that ALL of them deserve a chance at life and love. And we're looking to find the right human out there to make that happen. But competition is tough. And they're up against small, well-behaved doggies...so we are offering incentives for special humans willing to give these pooches a chance. WE WANT YOU!
***We are paying $500 to any approved foster or adopter of our REWARDS dogs.***
The human will also get ongoing training support, all supplies covered and a $25 Amazon gift card each month for 6 months. You will learn and grow. You will be doing a world of good for a dog who has really had it rough in life.
After living in one home her whole life, Nala's owners lost their housing and she unfortunately came back to Homeward Trails. Nala initially felt stressed being back at the shelter after living her whole life with one family, but she's already won over our staff and showed just how smart she is and how cuddly she can be when she gets to know new pals. Help Nala take the next step in her journey and stop by to meet her this weekend!
