Personality: Nylah is a sweet, adventurous girl who has the same love of running and chasing as her mum. At this age, she is very attached to Rogue and mimics a lot of her behaviour. Nylah has the highest prey drive in our pack and will chase the cats playfully but kill rodents and insects in the yard with ease. Nylah is the most submissive member of the pack which makes her very observant and wise to other dogs’ behaviours. She immediately knows whether to trust strange dogs and when she does, she is incredibly playful, loving to be chased and wrestle. Nylah likes to be with her family and will come to her humans to demand cuddles but isn’t that fussed over strangers and won’t be bribed with a treat. Nylah is a typical teenage puppy and is too smart for her own good. She can be destructive and is always the ringleader when there is mischief afoot.  She loves the water and thoroughly enjoys SUP boarding as a summer activity. Nylah is a bundle of energy and her beautiful blue eyes twinkle with her cheeky spirit.
