Nyla In The Lead

If ever there was a dog whose story exemplifies the great strides made in the fight against canine cancer, it’s Nyla. When Orvis Community Leader Davis James and his wife first adopted her as a stray, they had no idea what an amazing companion she would be for all their outdoor adventures. And when a serious health scare threatened her future, the way she rebounded after treatment provided important lessons about resilience and the healing effects of time spent in nature. Although Nyla’s illness was traumatic, she and her family have come out of it with stronger, deeper bonds and a desire to make the most of their time together.
