My story

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

Nikolai is a sweet, sensitive boy who just needs a little time and patience to feel safe — but once he trusts you, his gentle personality shines. He’s naturally shy at first, but those who give him the chance to warm up are rewarded with a loyal, affectionate companion.

Nikolai loves other dogs and truly comes alive when he’s with his canine friends. He enjoys running, playing, and exploring with them, and he’d thrive in a home with another confident dog to show him the ropes. He also does great with cats, making him a wonderful choice for a multi-pet household.

This handsome guy is both house trained and crate trained, and he does well with routines and calm structure. Seeing him blossom and grow more confident each day is incredibly rewarding.

If you’re looking for a gentle soul who just needs someone to believe in him — and who loves nothing more than running around with his dog buddies — Nikolai might be the perfect match
