Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Listed 05-23-12
Another cute face............this is Nicodemos or for short, Nicky.
He is a 4 month old little man, who is tan with cream markings.
How we got him, is so sad. His mom was having health problems and could no longer care for him the way she thought he should be. She lived in an apartment and wanted him to be able to go out to play. One day he came out of his harness when she was walking him and came close to being hit by a car.
She really loved this little boy, he was her "baby'.
He came with many things she had bought for him: a bed, two carrying cases, toys, treats, shampoo, harnesses, retractable leashes, toothbrush, blankets, a pup tent, and several other items. but the best thing was a scrapbbok with pictures of him from the time she got him, through the day she gave him up. We will be adding pictures and the book will go with him, too, when he finds his new home.
I have to say that this lady was a great dog mom, because she did the best thing for him, even though it broke her heart!!!!
Anyway, she had done as much of his vet work as was approriate, and we are having his neuter done and his last puppy shot and rabies shot, on Friday (05-25).......
Now, about Nicky. He is loving and friendly and has not seen a stranger. He is happy and well adjusted and she had been taking him out to potty, so he is doing well on his potty training, but will require continued training.
His adoption fee is $100.00
Please note, we do not normally adopt to families with children under the age of 10 years old. This little dog, will be a bit larger than some of our other dogs and may possibly be OK to go to a home with children over 6. As long as they are respectful of animals. We do require a securely fenced yard. and any other pets in th home must be current on vaccines and either spayed or neutered (unless there is a medical reason. )
