Nela
shy but wants to trust
Nela
đŸ Meet Nela
This sweet girl has been through a lot in her short life.
Nela is about 5 to 6 months old, and we rescued her from terrible  situation.
Her mom and one of her siblings were killed in a way thatâs too awful to describe â but she made it out, along with four of her siblings, and has been safe with us ever since.
Nela is still a shy pup â especially around new people â but sheâs playful and relaxed around other dogs. She absolutely lights up when sheâs with her furry friends, and once you have her in your arms, she kind of melts. She wants to trust, and you can feel it.
Sheâs a gorgeous, gentle soul who just needs someone patient and kind to help her feel secure and loved. Sheâll thrive in a calm home, ideally with another confident dog to show her the ropes.
Still finding her confidence, this quiet girl is looking for someone who understands that trust takes time. Once itâs earned, itâs forever.
Weâre so proud of how far sheâs come â and now itâs time to find her the right person to help her keep blooming.
Could it be you?

FAQ
Where are you located / Is there a shelter I can visit?
We are a foster-based rescue, which means we operate without a shelter or office. Every animal we help is cared for in a foster home. Most of our fosters and volunteers are located in and around San Isidro de El General, PĂ©rez ZeledĂłn, in the Southern Zone of Costa Rica.
Can I visit the animals available for adoption?
Yes! Once your application is approved, weâll coordinate a meet-and-greet with the foster home. Â
