My story

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

Nikko just turned to in March 26, 2022, He is a very sweet dog and gets along with ALL humans.
He has gotten along with 2 female german sheppards but not so nice with male dogs. He does not lunge as far
as they are far away. I don't have a cat so I don't know how he is with cats.. He is housebroken and listens to all
commands at home but outside not so much. He has nipped but never bitten. Nikko is a handful and I can no longer
care for him, financially, emotionally. He is too strong for me and I fall a lot and have gotten injured not because he hurts
me but because he is too big for me. I am under medical care for psychiatric care and he causes panic attacks due
to his neediness and I can't give him emotionally what he needs. He causes me stress which is affecting my health.
My boys need me and I have to be there for them.
