Nina! is a small terrier mix with a quirky spirit and an independent streak. While not the cuddly type, she is loyal in her own unique way, preferring affection at a comfortable distance. She enjoys brief patting sessions and appreciates a gentle touch, but can feel overwhelmed by too much fuss—being picked up is not her thing. Give her a spot near you on the floor, and she’ll be content to keep you company without climbing into your lap. Nina loves romping with other friendly dogs and finds confidence in their companionship. She thrives in a home with a secure fenced yard where she can play and explore. Her favorite activities include chasing her dog friends, exploring the outdoors, and chewing on bully sticks, though toys aren’t really her jam. She is crate trained and housebroken, and she gets along well with dog-savvy cats but might chase if they run. Walks are a treat for her, and she’s polite on leash. Shy with new people and in unfamiliar situations, Nina needs slow, patient introductions and lots of understanding. She won’t suit a home with children or anyone looking for a snuggler, but if you offer time, patience, and respect her space, she’ll reward you with her happy, playful side. Her ideal setup is an adult-only home, confident canine buddies, and people willing to take things at her pace. No apartments for this alert barker, and daily long hours alone won’t suit her well. She’s one of those dogs you really have to meet more than once to appreciate, but once you do, her character shines through. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
