Hi, I'm Nala. I am your typical young puppy - possibly a Shepherd mix, I weigh around 6 lbs and was born at the end of August. . I am affectionate, playful, and cuddly. I love belly rubs and to sleep in your lap. I am not fond of being left in a crate very often although I am learning to be calm in it at night. I am used to being with an active family and getting lots of attention. If I go in the crate in the daytime too much, I bark to find out where my family went. I am working on potty training, but I need frequent outside trips because I am still little. I am curous about the kitties in my home. One of them sits on the stairs and swats and me and I just want to be her friend. I don't think she liked it when I chased her and barked at her though. I guess kitties don't like to play the same way puppies do. I have not met any doggies, but am curious about them on my walks. I like to be with my family as much as possible. I am learning how to go for walks, but right now I don't like to walk very far. I like new people, but can get a little afraid at first. I am waiting, with puppy kisses ready, for my forever family. Could that be you? 

Adoptive families with kids 8 and older only please, and fenced in yard preferred.
