2.Describe play behavior and favorite toys: Nala is 3-4 and when we gave her a nylabone she went to work chewing which was great to see. she has not chewed on anything she has not been given. She likes to eat the mesquite beans in the yard.
3.Describe activity level: She has enjoyed short walks and is learning to trust that, when her partner Deejay is included she is most happy. she enjoys resting as she has had a hard life but is in the stages of forming her personality!
4.Look into the dog’s eyes. What is he/she telling you? I am scared to trust but the consistency has brought happiness to her eyes. She panicks a little if Deejay is not there and she is unsure if you will return him. if she is uncomfortable she will gently step back and expects to be treated poorly. She seems relieved when her kindness and trust is not harmed.
