About Nia
🐶❤️ MEET NIA – OUR BEAUTIFUL GOLDEN GIRL LOOKING FOR HER FOREVER HOME! ❤️🐶
Nia is a beautiful 25kg Golden Retriever girl with the most gorgeous nature and a heart full of love.
Calm, placid and incredibly affectionate, Nia may be a little shy when meeting new faces in an unfamiliar environment. But once she warms up to you, she will show you just how loving she truly is. Her sweet face and those soulful eyes will have you falling head over heels in love with her!
Nia is an intelligent and loyal girl who loves people and gets along wonderfully with other canine friends. She has a playful side and enjoys running around and having fun, but she is also a wonderfully chilled girl who is happy to relax by your side.
More than anything, Nia loves being around people, receiving pats, cuddles and attention. She is a gentle soul with so much love to give, and she isn’t bothered by cats either.
As Nia enjoys the company of other dogs and gets along well with them, we would love to find her a home with another gentle, like-minded dog of a similar age. Having a canine companion to share her days with would be lovely for her.
Nia isn’t underweight, but she is currently on the slimmer side and would benefit from gaining another couple of kilograms. Thankfully, she loves her food, so helping her reach a healthy weight shouldn’t be too difficult!
She is currently enjoying:
🐾 Royal Canin kibbles
🐾 Raw chicken necks
🐾 Healthy home-cooked meals
🐾 Occasional raw meat
As a Golden Retriever, Nia will need regular brushing to help manage shedding, along with professional grooming every 5–6 weeks.
Although she has a calm and easygoing nature, Nia will still need regular walks, exercise and mental stimulation to keep her happy, healthy and fulfilled.
Nia would make a wonderful family companion. She is loving, gentle, intelligent and loyal, and she deserves a family who will cherish her, appreciate her beautiful nature and make her feel truly loved.
We are hoping to find Nia a home where she can enjoy the companionship of another friendly dog, receive plenty of love and attention, and finally experience what it means to be a cherished family member.
If you believe Nia would be the perfect addition to your family and can offer her the loving home she deserves, with an existing canine companion of a similar age and gentle nature, please kindly complete our pre-adoption questionnaire below:

Adoption details
PFPRI Adoption Process
Please read our adoption process carefully before submitting an enquiry.
1. Pre-Adoption Screening
All applicants are required to complete our pre-adoption screening questionnaire when submitting an enquiry. This helps us understand your household, lifestyle and suitability for the animal you are interested in adopting.
2. Meet & Greet
After reviewing the responses, the most suitable candidates will be contacted to arrange a meet & greet with the animal.
3. Adoption Application
Following a successful meet & greet, shortlisted applicants will be invited to complete our formal application to adopt.
4. Adoption Approval & Payment
Once the adoption application has been approved, the full adoption fee must be paid within 24 hours to secure the adoption.
5. Adoption & Pick-Up
Pick-up of the adopted animal can be arranged once the adoption fee has been received and the adoption has been confirmed.
6. 14-Day Trial Period
We offer a 14-day trial period to help ensure the adoption is the right fit for both the animal and the family.
If the adoption proves unsuitable during the trial period, the animal may be returned to PFPRI and the adoption fee will be fully refunded, provided the animal is returned in healthy condition.
Our priority is always to ensure that every rescued animal is placed into a safe, loving and suitable forever home.
The rescue group is no longer taking adoption applications for this pet.
