About Nala

Nala is a beautiful and sweet one-year-old female ready to find her forever home. This mixed breed dog combines the traits of a Catahoula Leopard Dog and an Australian Shepherd, showcasing a powerhouse personality. She thrives on daily exercise and mental challenges, making her perfect for an active lifestyle—whether that's farm work or sports. While she is highly energetic, Nala knows how to switch off when playtime is over. Despite her potential, she may not be the best fit for first-time dog owners due to her working dog qualities. Enthusiastic and playful, she does best in homes without small children but enjoys the company of larger dogs that can keep up with her energetic play style. A fenced yard is essential for her exercise needs. Nala is eager to please, already crate trained, and on her way to being fully house trained. She is spayed, microchipped, heartworm negative, dewormed, and up to date on all vaccines. With the right leader who can provide structure and continue her training, Nala will be a loyal and protective companion. If you're looking for a smart and dedicated partner, Nala could be the perfect match for you! Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
