Adopt Nekoosa From AWLA For Lifetime Of Cuddles, Belly Rubs

ARLINGTON, VA — Meet Nekoosa, an adult, female mixed breed dog who loves cuddles and belly rubs. This girl is living with a foster family, and her adoption fee is covered by an anonymous donor, according to the Animal Welfare League of Arlington.

Nekoosa weighs about 44 pounds, and is chocolate in color. She has been spayed. If you adopt her, she also comes with four weeks of training through GoodPup.

Nekoosa’s foster says:

“Meet Nekoosa, a sweet and spirited lady with an adorable powdered sugar nose. She is a loyal companion whose expressive eyes reflect her desire to be with her people. She loves to get cuddles and belly rubs!

Nekoosa’s spirit and energy are that of a younger pup. Her playful nature shines through as she loves to engage with toys, eagerly wrestling and running after them. Tail-chasing is another one of her favorite pastimes. Nekoosa is not just adorable, but also smart, understanding boundaries and cues well. She is working on her leash manners, and her motivation to learn and please makes her a promising student!

Nekoosa’s loving personality has won the hearts of everyone she encounters. Whether playing or relaxing, this sweet pup is sure to bring joy and love to her forever family."

If you are interested in adopting Nekoosa, send an email to adoptions@awla.org to arrange an initial virtual meet & greet with the pet’s foster parent or a staff member. They will reply to you within 24 to 48 hours.
