My story

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

Hello there! My name is Nigel, and Iandamp;#39;m a sophisticated gentleman on the lookout for my forever home. Before I move in, itandamp;#39;s important for me to meet all the kids and any potential dog friends in your family to make sure we all get along famously. I like to be the star of the show, so I sometimes prefer to have all eyes on me!andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Iandamp;#39;m a smart cookie who knows all my commands, from andamp;quot;sitandamp;quot; to andamp;quot;stayandamp;quot; to andamp;quot;roll over.andamp;quot; Iandamp;#39;ve got a lot of charm and intelligence, and Iandamp;#39;m eager to show off my skills to anyone willing to watch. Training sessions are a breeze with me because I love learning new tricks and commands. Plus, Iandamp;#39;m always happy to earn a tasty treat or two as a reward!andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Although Iandamp;#39;m quite the charmer with my dashing looks and delightful personality, I sometimes enjoy being the center of attention. I adore playing and interacting with humans, and Iandamp;#39;m more than happy to soak up all the affection and cuddles you can offer. Iandamp;#39;m like a superstar who loves the spotlight, and Iandamp;#39;d be thrilled to be your number one companion.andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;When it comes to other dogs, Iandamp;#39;m open to making new friends, but I do appreciate a little introduction first. Some dogs might find my personality a tad overwhelming, but if we hit it off, Iandamp;#39;ll be the best playmate you can ask for. So, a meet-and-greet with any potential dog siblings would be perfect to ensure we all vibe well together.andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;My ideal home would be one where I can share my love and smarts with a family that appreciates my unique charm and gives me plenty of attention. Iandamp;#39;ll fill your days with laughter, loyalty, and endless companionship. If youandamp;#39;re looking for a devoted and intelligent pup to add to your family, I could be the perfect fit.andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Come meet me at the shelter, and letandamp;#39;s see if weandamp;#39;re a match made in doggy heaven. I canandamp;#39;t wait to become your loyal friend and make wonderful memories together!andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;With a wagging tail and plenty of love, Nigel
