Story
She is a great dog! Wonderful with kids and other pets. We have an older lab that just has never gotten along. Our older Daisy corners her frequently and terrorizes her. Nala gets along great with our Dane mix. She wants to play with our cats and is gentle with all people. She loves snuggles and attention. She survived parvo as a pup. She was in a group of dumped pups and she was the last and never got adopted. She’s gentle and good natured. She loves to ride in the truck and feel the wind on her face too! Walks well on a leash.

I love to play and go outside in the pool. I love to play with kids and other dogs. I have not been introduced to any cats so I'm not sure about that one.

Labrador Retriever German Shepherd Dog

Details
Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
We adopted her from Facebook. She was left as a puppy with the rest of her litter on the side of the road. She is 6 years old. She is very high energy and fun. She loves to run in the back yard and bark at the neighbor dog through the fence. She is very sweet and submissive with her humans. She is a very healthy dog and has not had any health problems. She is also a great guard dog because she has a loud scary bark. The reason we can't keep her is that she is extremely aggressive with smaller dogs. We have three smaller dogs, and she viciously attacks them. She killed a skunk in our back yard once and I think ever since then she is triggered by small dogs. She has a very alpha personality with other dogs. She is probably best to be the only dog in the household - or maybe slowly introduced to a large dog. She also needs a large yard to run in. We have one acre and that is good, but I am sure she would love even more space if possible.
