Nyla

Meet Nyla, a gentle and loving almost four-year-old Great Dane/Great Pyrenees mix from San Antonio, TX, whose heart is as big as her 98-pound brindle-coated frame! This sweet girl is the ultimate companion—affectionate, well-mannered, and always ready to be by your side.

Nyla has mastered an impressive list of commands, including sit, stay, leave it, drop it, up, off, and paw—proof of her intelligence and eagerness to please. She’s spayed, well-behaved, house-trained, crate-trained, and an all-around wonderful family dog. Despite her large size, Nyla carries herself with grace and gentleness, making her a fantastic fit for homes with children, other dogs, and even cats!

Her favorite pastime? Cuddling up with stuffed animals. Whether she’s lounging around with her plush toys or making new canine and feline friends, Nyla's easygoing and affectionate nature shines through. She thrives in the company of others and doesn’t like to be left alone for long, so she would do best in a home with another furry sibling or with a pet parent who can give her lots of attention.

Because of her size and playful energy, she would love a fenced yard so she can stretch those long legs and enjoy the fresh air!. Though she doesn’t have a strict routine, she appreciates a good brushing once a month and even tolerates having her teeth brushed when given the chance.

One of the most endearing things about Nyla is how deeply she bonds with her humans. She is loving, loyal, and incredibly well-behaved—a true gentle giant looking for a family who will welcome her indoors and provide the love and care she needs.

If you’re searching for a devoted, affectionate companion who will fill your home with warmth and joy, Nyla is waiting to meet you. To learn more about adopting Nyla, reach out today!
