Story
*We will not be hosting an adoption event on Saturday, October 3. Instead, we are offering private adoption appointments to pre-approved applicants from September 28-October 4. Contact us to learn more!*
Meet Nala! This gentle girl is still learning that the world isn’t quite as intimidating as it sometimes seems. She can be timid in new situations, but with patience, consistency, and a little encouragement, her confidence is steadily beginning to grow. Nala is making great progress on leash walks and has even started offering playful invitations to the younger (and very playful) resident dog. She would benefit from having a confident canine companion in her new home—someone who can help show her the ropes and remind her that new experiences aren’t so scary.
At home, Nala has some important skills already mastered. She is potty trained and genuinely enjoys the peace and quiet of her crate, giving her a comfortable place to relax and decompress. She is also gentle with older children, though a quieter home with kids ages 12+ would be the best fit for her.
Nala isn’t looking for someone to rush her. She’s looking for a patient, steady family willing to give her clear expectations, positive experiences, and the time she needs to settle in. With the right support—and ideally a confident canine friend by her side—we think there’s a wonderfully sweet, playful dog waiting to show more and more of herself.
Nala is a 4-year-old mixed breed rescued from a high-intake shelter. This dog's adoption fee is $100 and includes up-to-date vaccinations, microchip, 4DX testing, dental, and spay. Nala is also tested with other dogs, children, and potty and kennel trained. She is not tested with cats. We would love for you to meet this dog and see if she might be a good fit for your home.
The first step to adoption is completing an adoption application on our website at www.bounceanimalrescue.org. Pending approval, your application is valid for 1 year, and you will be eligible to request a hold on an individual animal for the Saturday adoption event. The hold does not require that you take the animal home, but ensures you get to meet and make an adoption decision prior to other applicants. Also pending approval, you will be able to acquire foster home contact information, so you inquire on personalities of specific animals.
We do offer midweek private adoption appointments for approved applicants pending staff, foster home, and vetting schedules. Because we are 100% foster-based, private adoption appointments are only offered for individual animals. (If interested in viewing multiple animals at one time, we encourage you to attend our adoption events!)
Please note, adoption applications are processed within 1–2 business days. Adoption applications cannot be processed onsite at adoption events.
Our adoption events take place every Saturday from 10am-Noon at Pet Supplies Plus (Front Range Village, 2912 Council Tree Ave #100, Fort Collins, 80525).
For additional questions regarding meeting this dog please contact us via text/email at 970.699.6772 or contact@bounceanimalrescue.org. We apologize for any inconvenience, but due to a high volume of inquiries, calls and voicemails regarding adoption will not be returned.
Thank you for choosing adoption! If you would like more information on our organization please visit our website at www.bounceanimalrescue.org.
