People's Choice Finalist

Meet Nala

Breed: Labradoodle

Barking from: Auckland

What's up dog?

Nala is a 3 year old Labradoodle we got during COVID. So she was a COVID puppy :) I can't stress how much she boosted our family's mental health during the 2 years of multiple COVID lockdowns. She made us laugh with her puppy antics and gave us a reason to get out and about into the fresh air. She gave the kids something to focus on in a very stressful/scary time and she was my constant work from home companion. The amount of times we would be stressed out and almost at each other's throats due to forced proximity and then we would just look at her and her tongue would be out and her tail would be wagging and it would just break the tension and make us smile. She is our love and our joy and till today she makes me smile and laugh and not take life too seriously.
