Notes from Heart of the Foothills Animal Rescue

This is a courtesy post. Please do not contact Heart of the Foothills Animal Rescue for information. Contact information is provided below. Nyla is a 4 - 5-year old pit bull/boxer mix. She is spayed and up-to-date on vaccinations. She has been outside her entire life until the current owner took her in from a neighbor. She gets along better with male dogs mostly, but she is okay with female dogs. She's never been around cats, but she has tried to chase one so it would be best if she wasn't around them. She does not appear to like men as much as women. She will warm up to them after a while. She will not growl or bite anyone, but she does bark at them at first. She is most likely scared because she hasn't been around many people. She does get along with kids. Since being with her current owner, she has adjusted well to being inside. However, she will need to be able to roam the house freely and not be crated. She needs somewhere to run and play. She has never had an accident while inside the house. She doesn't walk well on a leash, so patience will be needed to train her. She loves treats/bones/toys/ - anything that is safe for her to chew on. She loves playing with other dogs but can be a bit hyper and rough. Once she gets used to someone, she will become very attached. Love and attention is all she wants. She would be a great cuddle dog. If you are interested in Nyla, please email kenleywilson24@gmail.com
