Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Special Angel Nicholas -- Hit and Run Survivor!
My name is Nicholas and I have quite a story to tell. Let me start by telling you I am a miracle! And that is a testament to my spirit, determination– and the amazing care that my foster mom Danna gives me every day.
You see I was hit by a car on Dec. 16th, dragged for several blocks and thrown into a dumpster. But I was determined to be heard – and to get another chance – so I got lucky that rainy day and became a FurKid.
Now that my legs have healed I am making my way in the world. Mom says I am a real trooper, never complain about anything, whimper or cry. Instead I have this happy smile on my face and I make a game and fun out of anything,
Dad says I am playful, silly and always a gentleman. For example I LOVE my yellow "loofah dog". I love to shake him back and forth, fling him in the air and catch him. Not bad for a guy whose legs are healing, right? Dad says it is cute and funny to watch me "groom" my stuffed toys I like to lick them and give them little "nips" to groom them. He says it's really funny to see how careful and determined I am with that grooming. I also like to play tug-o-war with my doggy foster sister. In the end I always let her have the toy because I am a gentleman!
Mom says I also have this "‘thing" about balls, large and small. I even like the big medicine ball we use for my physical therapy. My favorite non-toys however are pine cones. I like to pick them up, give them a good shake, fling them in the air, catch them - and chew them up There is no doubt that I am very entertaining.
I am crate trained, good with other dogs and cats, love to ride in the car, can walk amazingly fast and get along great with people of all sizes and shapes. I am now doing physical therapy every week so I can regain strength and function in my back legs. Soon I can also begin to meet adopters, too, because Mom and Dad agree that I deserve the very bestest forever home in the world.
By the way, the clinic Mom takes me to every day has a nickname for me that also describes me to a "‘t." .See if you can figure it out (I am going to give you a hint right now. They love me there and say that my name could be Crash - C is for CUTE, R is for Remarkable, A is for Adorable, S is for Super and H is for Heroic. Put them together and they spell Crash (but you can call me Nicholas.)
So if my story touches your heart and you are looking for a little guy with a sunny disposition who loves life and deserves a wonderful forever home, please ask for Nicholas.
Belly rubs and kisses to you.
The Amazing, Outstanding and Most Remarkable Nicholas
