Nahla is a great girl that is full of energy and determination. Her passions in life include chasing kitties and small animals and snuggling on the couch. She already knows sit and is almost potty trained.

UPDATE FROM NAHLA'S ADOPTIVE HOME, JULY 23RD, 2011:

Well Lexi as she is now known by is quite a rambunctious girl and certainly
keeps us challenged. No jump is something she simply ignores, and if we
don't pay enough attention to her, she sneaks up behind us a nips us in the
behind, then proceeds to run to hide.

She loves the water, whether it is the lake, a water hose or simply a mud
puddle.  Last week as we was getting ready to go to the lake, she was pawing
in a water puddle from the recent rain, and when we turned out back for just
a moment she was rolling in the muddy puddle. Last night she grab the water
sprinkler, laid on her back with the sprinkler held between her feet and
enjoyed the spray of water trying to catch every drop with her tongue.  Her
newest challenge is attempting to pick up a full size football to hold in
her mouth....she just can't figure out why she can't get her mouth open wide
enough to grab ahold, but it certainly does keep her entertained for some
time.

She is so very different from our other German Shepherds we've had in the
past, who was very content and mellow, and completely satisfied with just
hanging out.  Certainly that doesn't fit Lexi's characteristics.  She needs
to be on the go 150% of the time, isn't able to play or entertain herself
and thinks our primary purpose is to be her entertainment guides.  I
certainly hope she will outgrow that and settle down soon.

She continues to grow, and at 8 months old is over 80 lbs, so a big girl she
will be.

*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!

Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.

*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.
