Alexandria Pet Of The Week: This Hound Mix Will Sniff You Out

ALEXANDRIA, VA — If you're in the market for a new pet, consider starting your search at the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria, which runs Alexandria's animal shelter.

One of the available pets is Nala, a hound mix eager to sniff out a new family. She's an ideal pet for a family who wants a dog in between small and large. You'll have to bear with her on walks, because she loves to investigate all the smells. But she'll make up for it in snuggles at home.

Here's more information on Nala from the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria:

Nala, 4-Year-Old Female White and Tan Hound Mix

Nala is ready to sniff out a new best friend! 4-year-old Nala is a sweet and petite hound mix who is on the prowl for her new family. In typical hound fashion, her nose is usually planted firmly on the ground when she is out and about. She loves to investigate every smell she comes across! Around 40 pounds, she's a great size for a dog who is not too big, but not too small either. She's a very affectionate girl who loves to be close to her favorite people. And just so you know, cuddles and snuggles are her specialty! She's also had dog friends in the past and would be open to another canine companion. So if you think Nala sounds like the hound for you, schedule time to meet her by emailing Adopt@AlexandriaAnimals.org or calling 703.746.4774 (opt. 2).
