My story

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

Niko is the best dog I ever had. He is fun, smart and quirky and loves to play. He makes myself, wife and two sons very happy!! We have another dog that he loves, but he does get worked up around new dogs. His bite history is reactive and out of fear it seems. We have people over all the time and he is fine, as long as we are there. The two times he bit is when we were not home and someone besides us entered the home. So happens that the two times he bit was the same person, our neighbor. With my kids getting older, I can't trust that he won't nip someone again.
We are hoping to find someone who maybe doesn't have a family and is looking to dedicate their time to this amazing boy. Every shelter and rescue I called said they would end up destroying him. He is not aggressive at all to be destroyed. This is my last ditch effort to find him a perfect match. Where he and his new pet parents can enjoy many many years together!!
