Nala is a sweet, gentle, and well-mannered 6-year-old Rottweiler mix who weighs around 46 pounds. She's an easygoing companion with a heart full of love to give, settling into family life with ease. Nala enjoys playing with other dogs and is known for being respectful and gentle, especially with smaller pups. She's also a dream on walks, showing excellent leash manners and no reactivity. Nala is incredibly gentle, patient, and loving with children and would be a wonderful addition to a family with kids of any age. She's fully house-trained and does well in her crate, though she may bark or cry for a few minutes when first left alone, a mild separation anxiety that is expected to improve with a consistent routine. Nala is smart and eager to please, already knowing several commands and responding beautifully to verbal cues. She loves playing with balls, enjoys car rides, and navigates stairs with no trouble. Her foster describes her as a "turnkey pup" who is affectionate, intelligent, and ready to be someone's loyal best friend.
Ideal Home
Nala would thrive in a home with a moderate activity level where she can enjoy a daily walk and plenty of time with her people. While she'd likely enjoy having another friendly dog in the home, she doesn't require one.
