Even though she was surrendered to a shelter when her family moved, Nilla has maintained a sweet, friendly disposition.

Now under the care of a foster through Best Friend Dog and Animal Adoption, Nilla has only become more loving and playful, according to volunteers.

"She absolutely adores everyone she meets, humans and dogs alike, and brings a burst of happiness wherever she goes," volunteers are Best friend said.

The 8-month-old bully mix is described as playful, cuddly and a "perfect mix of energetic puppy fun and sweet snuggle bug."

Nilla is already mastering crate training and she's working on basic commands. Now she just needs a family to give her a furever home.

Anyone interested in meeting Nilla can go to Best Friend Dog and Animal Adoption at https://www.bfdaaa.com/.
