If you’ve ever wanted your very own gentle giant, then Nala might just be your perfect match.
Nala is a beautiful Irish Wolfhound x puppy with the sweetest soul. She can be a little shy when meeting new people, particularly men, and likes to take her time deciding if you’re trustworthy. But once you’ve earned her confidence, she’ll happily spend every minute by your side. Whether you’re working at your desk, relaxing on the couch or heading out for an adventure, Nala just wants to be wherever you are. Her favourite spot? Curled up under the desk while you work.
This gorgeous girl is the perfect mix of adventure buddy and couch companion. She’s fantastic in the car, happily jumps in and out, and loves exploring new places. At home she’s equally content snuggled up beside you watching TV (Love Island is one of her favourites!) or showing off her latest matching outfit. She also has a beloved teddy that’s never too far away.
Nala has medium energy and enjoys a run, but she’s still very much a puppy learning the ropes. House training is coming along beautifully, and she’s currently working on crate training, lead walking and her basic commands. She’s yet to figure out that toys thrown are meant to be brought back, so fetch is still a work in progress!
Nala is incredibly gentle, loves pats, cuddles and affection, and has no issues around food or being handled. Like many young puppies, she does experience some separation anxiety, so she’ll thrive with a family who can continue building her confidence and include her in their day-to-day adventures.
Nala would love a forever home with someone looking for a true best friend—a patient, kind family who wants a loyal companion to take on road trips, walks and all of life’s little adventures. In return, you’ll get a giant cuddle bug who will love you with her whole heart.
Come and meet Nala—you might just fall in love.

*Desex bond will be refunded once pup is desexed at one of our nominated vets at the appropriate age.
