My story

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

Nikita is the product of irresponsible breeding- there's no other way to say it. She's a wonderful dog, and she deserves much better than to be left at an animal shelter because she couldn't be sold. Nikita is a special girl- she's deaf, so she needs an adopter who will work with her with hand signals, and always keep her safe. She's active and super friendly; she was initially uncomfortable around dogs but doing better. Working with a trainer will be the way to go with this busy girl. She'll need tons of exercise, every day, to stimulate her mind and keep her from getting bored! We recommend a home with kids over 12, because she's a strong girl! Nikita is spayed/neutered.
