About Nyla

Meet Nyla, the girl who just wants to be someone's everything. Some dogs come into rescue due to abandonment, while others, like Nyla, were loved but found themselves in an unfortunate situation when their person's life changed dramatically. When she needed help, we were there for her. Nyla is a stunning, icy gray and white beauty, probably around 3 years old. She’s a mix of Labrador Retriever, Pit Bull Terrier, and maybe even Greyhound. With her looks come an even more beautiful heart. Nyla is incredibly sweet and loyal, always wanting to be near her person. She has an uncanny way of making you feel like you've been meant for each other forever. This sweet girl thrives with small children and absolutely adores cats. She enjoys playing with her toys and thinks fetch is the best game ever. Surprisingly, Nyla can even swim! She’s a dream on a leash and a fantastic car companion, making her the ideal partner for walks, errands, or road trips. However, Nyla does need her future family to understand that she prefers to be the sole canine. Having spent most of her life as an apartment dog, she didn’t receive the proper socialization with other dogs and feels uncomfortable around them. Nyla deserves to be someone's whole world, not just part of a pack. She didn’t come to us from a shelter out of desolation; her previous owner made the hard choice to ensure Nyla's safety as she pursued her dreams of becoming a Marine. Now, instead of displacement, Nyla is waiting for a forever home where she can feel wholly safe and loved. This is not a moving away from her past; it's stepping into a brighter future. Nyla is fully vetted and ready to go home. She just needs someone to take a chance on her and say, 'You're home now, baby.' Click apply to start the adoption process.
