About Niko

Meet Niko - Your New Best Friend! Hi, I'm Niko! I'm a 60-pound bully mix with a heart as big as my paws. Making friends is my specialty-I absolutely adore people and other dogs (cats, not so much, but hey, nobody's perfect!). Whether you're looking for a walking buddy or a snuggle partner, I've got you covered. I'm as active or as chill as you need me to be. Long walks? Count me in (I'm great on a leash)! Couch cuddles? Say no more. My foster family says I'm the best hugger they've ever met, and my big, goofy smiles make everyone's day brighter. I'm potty-trained, and I've nailed commands like sit, stay, no, and potty outside. I also know my name really well and have amazing recall-even if a squirrel catches my eye, one call of my name and I'm right back at your side. I'm a survivor with a story. I was rescued from Texas by a local doggy daycare/boarding facility and brought here to find my forever home. Since then, I've been recovering like a champ from being neutered and treated for heartworms. My foster mom has been sneaking me back to her house a bunch though (shhh!), where I've been spoiled with love, belly rubs, and lots of time with her three other dogs. The vet staff adores me-they've even posted about me, and said I'm the 'sweetest, silliest, most patient boy' and confessed they're all a little in love with me (blushing!) I'm a big fan of toys and can keep myself entertained for hours. While my foster mom works in her office, I'm perfectly content chewing on a bone or playing with my favorite toys by her side. I love to play, especially with other bigger dogs I will probably do best with bigger dogs, because I am a moose ����. Smaller animals, like cats, aren't my vibe, so I'd do best in a home without them. I'm looking for my forever family-one that will cherish my sweet, calming presence and appreciate my hugs and snuggles as much as my foster family does. They keep saying how special I am, and while they'd love to keep me, I know there's a perfect family out there waiting just for me. Could it be you?
