Story
Nala is loyal, smart and loving. She has severe anxiety and needs that need to be met without other dogs. She is great around our toddlers and always has been. We are just unable to give her the divided attention she needs without having our other dogs/children around. We want to make sure she goes to a loving home and will help with rehoming process whether it’s buying her food or toys for the next few months!

Story
Hi there, my name is Buddy! I'm a sweet and friendly mix-breed pup who was recently rescued by Uncaged Paws in Roswell, New Mexico. I was originally left abandoned after my owner went to jail, but now I'm part of their Prison Training Program and I'm ready for my forever home. I'm a very loving and affectionate dog who loves spending time with people. I'm great with kids and also get along well with other animals- so if you have a furry friend at home, we'll be best buddies in no time! I'm also very obedient and eager to learn, making me the perfect companion for a family that wants to train me. I'm not sure what my future holds, but I'm hoping it involves a loving home with a family who will give me all the love and attention I deserve. If you think that could be you, please come meet me today. I promise I won't disappoint! ##1591772##
