My story

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

ABOUT ME: Hey there, folks! I'm Nigel, the resident good boy at the shelter. I strut my stuff on a leash like a pro! I can't wait to wiggle my way into your heart and show you just how awesome life with me can be. Let's make some memories together!

FOSTER TESTIMONIAL: "Nigel is a beautiful dog. He's so low maintenance. He's not picky with his food. He doesn't need a lot of exercise. He's not a needy dog at all - he's just happy to lay on the couch, near his humans."
"He's potty trained. We had a couple of little accidents over the first 2 days we had him, but we put that down to him being in a new environment, and not being familiar with the apartment etc. Since the 3rd day, he's been very good at telling us when he needs to go out. He sits in front of us, looks at us, and shakes his head! We know that when that happens, he needs to go for a walk outside."
"Nigel did terrific at the North Texas Giving Day event! He loved getting soft pats from humans and was respectful when greeting new dogs. He even met an SPCA Alumni dog while at the event! Nigel did a great job telling people at the event and on Facebook Live why they should donate to help him and all the other animals at the SPCA. He loved standing in the fountain to cool off!!"
