Nala is a BEAUTIFUL 4 month old shepherd puppy. She is very affectionate, and just learning all about the world! Nala is going to be a big girl when fully grown! With a wagging tail and a heart full of joy, Nala is ready to explore the world preferably by your side.

Puppies like this are still learning all the important things, like how to be the very best family member, and will thrive with patience, guidance, training, and lots of love.

Playtime, cuddle time, and snack time are all top priorities, and Nala promises to keep you smiling every single day. Whether its zoomies in the yard or snuggling up for a nap, this sweet baby is ready to grow into a loyal, loving companion!

Our puppies arrive from many situations- an oopsie litter, partner rescues, and sometimes a home situation. Most of our puppies spend 3-4 weeks in a loving foster home, receiving the best care and socialization from our amazing FAPL fosters! Many puppies are well on their way in house training skills, but of course will need continued time, training, and patience. Please keep in mind, exact breed or size when grown is not guaranteed! Puppies will keep you on your toes, and the end result will be so worth it!!
