NIKA's Story NIKA is a gorgeous German Shepherd/mix girl with an infectious zest for life and a tail that never stops wagging. At approx. 2 years in age, NIKA's owner could no longer care for her so this lovely young dog is waiting in our shelter for a new active family to adopt her. This young adult girl is all about movement and joy. NIKA is energetic, athletic, and ready to be your go-to partner for hikes, long walks, playtime, and adventures of all kinds. She loves people, lights up with her BIG expressive ears, and brings a spark of fun wherever she goes. If you’re looking for a dog who will keep you active, smiling, and motivated to get out and hustle through life together, then this beautiful girl is ready to run straight into your heart.

Additional adoption info

Adoption Guidelines:
- Before scheduling a meet-and-greet with one of our adoptable cats or dogs, you must complete an application and interview with an adoption team member.
- You must be 21 years or older.
- All animals in your home must be up-to-date on vaccinations and spayed / neutered.
- If you rent, we will need a copy of your lease stating the landlord permits pets along with the landlord’s contact information.
- We do not place animals as gifts for others.
- Adopted animals must be kept as indoor companions.
- We reserve the right to perform a home visit.

We aim to provide high quality care for the well-being of rescued cats and dogs until they are placed in forever homes. All animals are regularly vet checked, fully vaccinated, spayed / neutered and microchipped. They are routinely treated for fleas and worms as well as any medical issues.

Except for a limited number of cats fostered at our headquarters, our adoptable animals are cared for in loving volunteer foster homes. We get to know the pets’ personalities and needs very well, striving to make the best possible match for both animals and adopters.
