My personality

My story

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

Meet Nikki (ID-#6455), an 8-year-old, 17 lbs dog with a heart full of love to give. This gentle senior girl found herself at the shelter on 11/23/24 as an owner surrender after her adventurous spirit led her to escape her yard one too many times, resulting in some trouble with the neighbor's chickens. Despite her mischief, Nikki is an incredibly sweet and loving dog who deserves a safe and secure forever home where she can spend her golden years surrounded by love.

Nikki is calm and gentle, great with dogs, and even cats. She is UTD on vaccines and will be microchipped before adoption. Unfortunately, she tested positive for heart worms and is too old to be spayed at the shelter. Nikki needs a family willing to help her overcome her challenges, providing her with the care.

Nikki is looking for her miracle. If you think you can offer her the safe and loving home she deserves, please visit her at RUN #321. She’s ready to start a new chapter—could you be the one to give her the second chance she’s waiting for?

Note - all the listings on Friends of Shelter Animals for Cobb are done by volunteers. If this cat or dog came in as a lost animal, we do not know how they might be with children, other pets, or if house trained. You can bring your pet to the shelter for a meet & greet with your potential new best friend. When inquiring about a cat or dog, please use THE ID NUMBER.
