Nya
Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 7 years
Nya was rescued by Adoption Dogs Portugal some years ago and has spent the intervening period in a loving foster home. She has made significant progress in that time, but remains a very scared and mistrustful dog, even with people she knows well. That makes it challenging to demonstrate affection for Nya, although her current carer is able to put her on a lead and stroke her if Nya is in a familiar place where she feels safe. Nya walks well on a lead, as long as she isn’t taken into a situation that scares her, but she also walks well and stays close without a lead. Nya never bites and is very submissive. Despite her mistrust of humans, Nya is comfortable around other dogs, as long as they are kind and they accept her. Once Nya has established a bond with a dog that she trusts, she will never leave its side. We’re looking for a home for Nya where she can have plenty of freedom outdoors, preferably on a quinta in peaceful surroundings where there is not a lot of human activity that might be alarming to her. Nya will never be a cuddly dog, and cannot be viewed as a ‘pet’ in the conventional sense, but she is an exceptionally good guard dog. She is watchful, has a loud bark, but doesn’t bite. She will be a loyal companion to another dog and can live a very happy outdoors life in an appropriate, secure setting.
