About Nico:
Nico is one impeccable young dog with charming personality besides her bright appearance. She is sweet, mellow, cuddly, and affectionate. She loves being around people and is aimed to please; she loves belly rubs and giving kisses. She is calm and stable; well behaved inside the house, with no chewing or barking issues. She is good with young kids, and gets along with dogs and cats, either in public places or indoors. Nico will make a great companion pet for any type of family if only she’s given a second chance. She is surely a delight to have for any dog lover. Please watch the attached videos on her daily activities.
About Nico’s rescue:
At only six months old, little Nico was found near a very busy traffic road. She was wagging tail to everyone asking for food. We stopped the car and fed fer; she finished a can of dog food and some beef jerky in just minutes. It looked like she has not eaten anything for a long time. We asked the neighboring residents if anyone might be looking for lost puppy. We were told that the poor pup just showed up in last 3 days. It was assumed that someone abandoned her on purpose. We have no choice but to bring her to our vet and settle her in foster home, since young puppy is hard to find food and survive for much longer near busy traffic road.
Nico has passed the physical examinations and is ready for her forever home.
