Meet the delightful Nala, a lovely girl who's just over a year old! This sweet soul has had quite an adventure. Her previous life meant spending her formative months stuck in a backyard with little socialization—can you imagine that? 😢 But now, she’s ready to embrace the world and all the love it has to offer with open paws. Nala's personality is as warm as her heart. She adores being close to her human friends and loves to roll on her back, just waiting for those belly rubs! 🐾 Her gentle nature shines through in every interaction. However, she's a bit of a bodyguard when it comes to people she doesn't know; she's got a protective streak that makes her a loyal companion! 💖 Now, let’s talk about her special needs. Nala has a skin autoimmune disorder called Pemphigus, which means she has to be treated with steroids and weekly medicated baths. It’s a journey we’re committed to together, and she’s such a trooper! 💪 So, if you’re ready to shower this brave girl with love, patience, and some strong toys to chew on, Nala would thrive in your home. Fun fact: Nala is believed to be an Asian Shepherd Dog, also known as Alabay or Alabai, a breed known for its protective instincts and loyalty to its family. 🐕 Isn't that something? Nala is looking for a loving forever home that understands her quirks and will provide the care she needs. Adopters must apply through the Buddy App, and please keep in mind that she needs to meet her new family in person.
