My story

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

11.22.17 11.22.17 Neeko is about 4 years old now. He has been with us since before he was a year old. He certainly can be a little stinker at times, but if given time to adjust, he is the sweetest little guy. He comes off as very nippy and growly upon meeting him, but within a short time, he is in your lap wanting loving. He does pretty well going out to potty, he does try to mark once in a while, but not often. He will not be homed to anyone with children or the potential to have any in the near future. He is fine with other dogs and cats, but does prefer to be the one and only center of attention! He is fully vetted and is ready to take the plunge to a new home with the understanding that he will need time and patience to adjust. His adoption donation is $200, if interested please apply on our website

9.17This little guy MIGHT be able to be adopted if someone has the patience to work with him. He growl and talks ALOT and he has bitten in the past, but he is doing better and MAY be able to be placed in a home that is quiet and one or two people... NO KIDS at all. He seems to like MEN more than women, but he does ok with both of us. Thought we would try him with more freedom to see how he did. He marked a couple times but I think that will subside. He got on my lap, licked my face and played with a ball. All NEW things for him. It takes him a LONG time to get comfortable with anyone so if he is adopted, it would have to be to a home that isn't expecting anything from him until he is ready. He also needs to be sedated to be groomed (a vet visit). I can trim him up except his face and feet, but he will absolutely bite if you try either of those things. He may get better, but I can't guarantee that. I have NEVER taken him to an actual groomer. He is young, only about 3 years old. If you are interested, his name is Neeko and you would need to apply on our website. Adoption donation is $200
