Story
Fostered in Hamilton areaApply to adopt at rebeldogrescue.com*All adoptions with Rebel Dog Rescue have a 15 day probation period. Read about our adoption process on our website. Nika is a fun little white dog with a big personality (and tongue). Nika is still getting used to all the TLC but is warming up to being a little white shadow following you around. Nika is starting to enjoy the behind the ear scratches that maybe she did not receive enough of in her previous life. She enjoys naps but also wakes up with youthful energy ready to be your buddy; she loves her blankie-pillow a lot, especially right out of the drier. She lets you know when she needs to go out to potty (little barks usually mean pee-pee, little grumbles mean #2) and has learned quickly how to go on brief walks on her little pink leash.Nika is a little 'derpy' angel.
