She’s now safe and sound, eagerly anticipating her forever home, and this girl deserves every ounce of love and laughter that life can offer. Natalia is around 1–2 years old, but with her youthful spirit, she’s still very much a puppy at heart! Weighing in at a delightful 40 lbs, she’s the perfect size for cozy cuddles and spirited adventures. Who wouldn’t want to take her on weekend hikes or snuggle up for movie nights? ✨ Why is everyone falling under Natalia's spell? Let’s break this down: 🐶 **Dog-Friendly Queen!** This girl plays so beautifully with her furry friends. She knows how to take turns and has the utmost respect for her dog buddies’ boundaries. No food hoarding here, she’s polite at mealtimes like a true lady! ⚡ **Happy, Playful Energy!** Natalia is a toy aficionado who gets pure joy from her playtime. She would absolutely thrive with a playful dog sibling or a family that enjoys an active lifestyle. Despite her rough past, she exudes enthusiasm for life, ready to run, play, and soak in every moment! 🎉 💞 **Super Sweet & Affectionate!** This girl is all about love! Natalia adores people and has an endless supply of sweetness for both adults and children alike. Just imagine her snuggling up for some downtime after a fun day of play—precious, right? 🧠 **Smart Girl in the Making!** While she hasn’t yet mastered formal commands, this clever lady eagerly listens and responds when corrected. With your guidance, she’ll absolutely blossom. And, while she may express excitement with gentle “puppy nips,” they’re all just part of her playful charm! 🚪 **Potty & Crate Progress – Amazing Start!** Guess what? Natalia has navigated 8 hours overnight in her crate without any accidents! 🙌 She’s already getting the hang of potty training and is quick to signal when it’s time to step outside. Impressive, right? 🛁 **Easy to Handle!** Bath time? Piece of cake! Paw wiping? She's all about it! Natalia is calm during handling, showing her trusting nature, and making life so much easier for her future family. However, because she’s still learning her own excitement levels, she might do best in a household with kids who understand a playful, exuberant puppy’s energy. Natalia has faced hardships, but through it all, her spirit remains loving, joyful, and vibrant. She is ready to find a loving home where she can continue learning, playing, and becoming someone’s heart dog. Who’s ready to bring this beautiful girl into their life?
