Meet NALA
I'd like to introduce you to Nala, but if you've been to the Shelter, she's probably already introduced herself to you personally and you're already in love. Nala just might be the happiest, tail-waggiest, sweetest squishy face in the whole building. She is a ray of sunshine, wrapped in a rainbow, ready to explode into glitter. We've called her an American Bulldog mixed with a Pittie, but all we really know if that she is happiness- personified. This lovebug was with us for a month before being made available, which means all of the Volunteers have been getting her all to ourselves for quite awhile (which we have LOVED!), but now we are reluctantly ready to share her with you, the lucky member of the public that is going to get to bring her into your home and wonder how you ever lived without her ! She has a bunch of skin-tag-looking masses on her belly, but we just got biopsy results and thank goodness...no bad news ! Nala's tail never stops wagging, she loves affection and kisses, toys, brain-games, treats... the only thing she is NOT down for are long walks in the heat (we can tell you all about bracycephalic/smoosh-nose dogs, if you don't already know, and how to take care of them). PLEASE take her home soon, so the Volunteers don't have to squeeze another dog into our already crowded houses. I promise, it will be the best decision you ever make ! :)
