Hi, I’m Nala Skye… and YES, I AM your best friend.
I’m a large breed, old soul with mysterious ancestry and excellent emotional intelligence. Think Labrador meets Dane (maybe Mastiff?) meets a wise aunt who’s seen some things and keeps the good snacks in her purse.
My name is Nala, which means Queen, Protector, and Skye Protected by the Sky.
No pressure, right? Every Queen, Protector Spirit should also feel protected by the sky. But honestly, it fits. I’ve got a calm, stoic, dignified way about me and a voice that kindly announces, “Dog on duty.” I’m a good judge of character, and most people and dogs get my quiet approval. I often look like I’m sitting on a throne, except the throne is your couch and I’m politely asking if I can hold your hand.
I keep a gentle watch over my people. I like to know where you are, just in case you need moral support or a paw to hold. I walk nicely on a leash, I like being clean, but I drool around snacks. I’m more of a deep-breaths dog than a zoom-around-the-house dog.
Some things still make me nervous. Once a neighbor carried a car scraper nearby and I dropped to the ground nervously shaking. But even when I’m scared, sweetness wins. Every day I feel a little safer, a little lighter, a little more like the dog I was meant to be.
Important facts about me:
I’m around 7 years old wise, not chaotic.
I arrived at 55 lbs and too skinny, currently starring in my glow-up era.
I love car rides and sit like a dignified passenger princess.
I can be anxious around some people and dogs. I might bark or growl if I am not certain about someone but if you tell me it's okay, more and more I am learning to relax and know who I can trust.
I bond especially with calm, gentle humans.
I can play while lying down efficiency is my brand.
I used to sleep in a crate and was very polite about it, but I’m such a good communicator I don’t really need it. I’ll just look at the door like, “Excuse me, front desk? Bathroom please.” I may even give tasteful commentary.
Favorite things:
• presence, I look asleep but I’m actually supervising life
• being near you, always
• cuddling in a dignified, paw-holding way
• calm conversations
• quietly protecting the vibes
My signature move is handing you my paw. Then the other paw. Then back again. If you’ve ever wanted a dog who will hold your hand through life, congratulations, you’ve found her.
I’m getting spayed the first week of February and after that I’ll be officially ready for my forever person. If you want a gentle giant with an old soul, a soft protective streak, and endless love, I’m right here, probably already holding out my paw.
