Nigel is a Mini-Aussie mix with a cute under bite and curled tail. He is affectionate with a hidden streak of silliness. Because he is an Aussie he is reserved at first with new people and animals. But, once introduced he is very relaxed and comfortable. With his special person or persons he is very affectionate and loyal. He was raised by a single owner in a loving home with a cat. Until his human for health reasons moved in with a daughter, Nigel lived a charmed life with his cat pal in the suburbs. Tearfully, his human surrendered him to his vet asking only that he find a loving family and home for Nigel. The vet contacted us (The Animal Rescue Alliance).and we took him in as a foster. He was confused and for several days sat at the door waiting for his human. Gradually, Nigel adapted to his new home in a downtown loft. His trust grew for his foster human and foster brother, Cai, a boisterous Welsh Cardigan Corgi. Getting used to different people and dogs has been his biggest challenge. By nature, he is reserved and in his suburban life he had limited social interaction with other people and dogs. Nigel is now a city fellow. He greets the neighbors in the vestibule and on the street with manners. Nigel enjoys going on walks with and without his foster brother. City noises and the occasional squirrel do not faze him. Nigel enjoys walks to local coffee shops and sits at the foster’s feet people-watchong! If you want a gentle and devoted pal for life, Nigel is your boy. He lives for his peeps and his home. With his perfect manners and loving upbringing, Nigel is a companion par excellence. Let him get to know you, and you will have a canine friend forever.
