Nala Mae is a 6-year-old, spayed female Rottweiler mix weighing about 46 pounds. She's a sweet, gentle, and well-mannered companion who settles into family life with ease. Nala has an easygoing personality and a heart full of love to give. She enjoys spending time with other dogs, is playful, and also happy to relax. She's been friendly and respectful around smaller dogs, reads social cues well, and knows when to give them space. Nala is non-reactive on walks and has excellent leash manners. She is incredibly gentle, patient, and loving with children, and would be a wonderful addition to a home with kids of any age. Nala is fully house-trained and does well in her crate, though she may bark or cry for a few minutes when first crated or left alone. She is smart, eager to please, and responds beautifully to verbal cues like "go lay down." Nala loves playing with balls, enjoys car rides, navigates stairs with no trouble, and greets everyone with kindness. Her foster describes her as a "turnkey pup" – affectionate, intelligent, gentle, and ready to be a loyal best friend.
