My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Posted 11/21/23. Alda came to The Nest together with her canine sister Pippi, a 6 lb. super cute Min Pin. (see more info about Pippi on this site) from a local animal shelter. Alda is between 3-4 years old, very energetic and playful as well as super snuggly and laid back whenever her human is. Alda definitely is a Yorkie, perhaps mixed with a chihuahua. She weighs about 10 lbs. and seems very big next to Pippi. She is very bonded with her sister Pippi, therefore the two must go to a home together. Alda loves Pippi and looks for her when she is not in sight. The two love to play and wrestle with each other and go for walks together with their human or run around in the yard. Both Alda and Pippi do well in the car. They are always ready for an adventure! Alda is house trained and does really well when on a regular schedule. However we cannot guarantee that there won't be an accident while she get acclimated in her new home. Alda and Pippi can be loud when a visitor comes to their home (barkbarkyapyap!) but once they warm up (TREATS!) they are fine and want to be everyone's friend! Alda just like her sister Pippi is just stinkin' cute and a lot of fun to have around. Alda and Pippi need a home with a securely fenced in yard and no children under the age of 12. We have not seen how they behave around cats but don't anticipate problems. Alda is fine with other small dogs. Alda is current on vaccinations including Rabies, she is spayed, she is micro chipped, she tested negative for heartworm and she is on heartworm/flea/tick preventative. If you are interested in adopting Alda and Pippi please fill out an adoption application on our web site. If you don't hear from us within 48 hours of submitting the form please contact us via email at inthenest@gmail.com If we think it is a promising fit we will contact you via e-mail or phone.
Alda's adoption fee is $200

More about this rescue

The Nest,is a 501(c)(3) not for profit organization. Our mission is to rescue, restore, and re-home animals that come from local animal shelters or from individuals who contact us directly.

We are guided by the following ideals:

We will always place the physical and mental well-being of our animals above our own and that of other individuals, making a constant effort to act as an advocate for the animals we serve.

We will to the best of our ability assist in the care and placement of animals that require our assistance, regardless of age, demeanor, physical or behavioral health, because we believe that all animals at any stage in life and health have inherent value and an important place in the world in which we all live.

We will provide educational support for those individuals who seek our assistance, believing that educating the public is one of the keys to keeping animals in their homes and preventing senseless euthanasia.

We will provide ongoing care and homes for animals we cannot place in adoptive homes, because we believe that animals that make their way to The Nest should be cared for until their last days.
