My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Nikko is an old soul in a young dog's body; he is so sweet and extremely loving he just cannot have enough. All this poor guy asks from you is to give him much love & affection to feel safe, and not to be let down again by another human to whom he opens his heart to trusting. This sweetheart has been wronged by humans subjecting him to a life of hell and almost death. His spirit and heart having been broken before, he now clings to the one who is caring for him and showing compassion and love. It is time for the right person to give this guy the love he needs and deserves - a forever loving home! Someone who will play with him, throwing the ball for him, taking him on hikes and to the park. Nikko loves car rides and feeling the wind in his face. He loves running and would be a great companion for an active person who runs, bikes, skateboards, or roller-blades.

He is perfect for someone who works from home and wants a quiet, well-behaved companion… he prefers this and not to be left alone for long. A great dog to walk, he is obedient and stays by your side following commands. One cannot ask for a better loving companion and a perfect house dog, but he can be protective if not introduced. He has shown no aggression in my home and is friendly to those who come to visit with an introduction. He is easy to fall in love with, he is a special, smart, calm and delightful, loving boy, a boy you will love having as a part of your family.

[Nikko is 8 years old and weighs 63 lbs.]
