About Nola
Introducing sweet Nola, a small Maltese female with a heart full of love waiting to be shared with a family who will treasure her. This delicate little girl, just over 4kg, has spent her previous life as a breeding dog. She's now experiencing the warmth and affection she has always deserved, and her journey is only just beginning.
Nola is a calm, gentle soul who, with time and reassurance, is showing her true loving personality. She gets along wonderfully with other small dogs and is not fussy, although she adores her meals. Her ideal home is a cozy environment where she can relax and enjoy gentle cuddles at her own pace. She would make a perfect companion for someone who enjoys a quieter lifestyle and has time to spend with her, perhaps a retiree or homebody.
In terms of her health, Nola has Grade 3 luxating patellas in both hind legs. Although she is not currently in pain, her future family should be prepared for possible veterinary care should her condition progress.
For those looking to provide Nola with a nurturing home where she can flourish, you'll be offering her a chance to finally experience the life of a cherished pet. If you believe you can shower her with the love and patience she needs to thrive, Nola will surely blossom as your loyal companion.
