Meet Nala

Months and months ago, we made a last-ditch effort and saved this dog from euthanasia. We’ve been working hard with her since then to help her overcome a terrible past, and now…her fosters and trainer agree…she’s ready!! Here she is! Meet Nala, who is now officially up for adoption. ??
Hi, there! My name is Nala.
I am a 60+ pound mixed mystery mutt, but my parents think I have some lab in me.
I came to Purple PAWS from a not so great life where I was abused and neglected. This has made me fearful of new people, but once you earn my trust you’ll be my favorite hooo-man!
My foster parents have been working with a trainer to help me learn how to be loved the way I deserve and behave with proper doggie manners.
Because of my past, I sometimes get scared and that makes me loud. I try to sound tough because I’m scared. I hope to find a home that is going to be patient with me, kind to me and willing to make a slow, consistent transition to my new home.
I would really love for my new family to keep working with me and my best friend/trainer, Julie. She understands me and is helping me learn how to be loved by hoo-mans. I never knew what petting was before and now I can’t get enough pets and belly rubs! I’m pretty good walking on-leash until I see a distraction, but love treats and am easily persuaded to redirect my attention.
I love to play fetch, but mom calls it keep away, cause I like to pretend I’m bringing it back. HeHe! I also loved stuffed kongs, playing tug-o-war, and car rides.
I am a high energy girl that needs lots of exercise, discipline both physically and mentally. I’m almost too smart! I would love my own back yard and prefer not to live with other animals or children.
I tend to feel more comfortable around women, than men.
If you think you could be the special home I need to make the best of this second change at life, apply at purple-paws.org
