I'm ready for my new family!

Hi! My Name Is Nico

I'm Available

Meet Nico!

At just 4-5 months old, Nico is everything you could want in a puppy — playful, affectionate, social, and already showing what an incredible companion he’s going to become.

Nico is a ball of happy puppy energy who loves being outside. One of his favorite things is sitting at the top of the deck stairs, quietly overlooking the yard and taking it all in. He’s also a big fan of fetch and will happily bring the ball right back so the game never has to end.

This sweet boy adores people, loves children, and gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes and genders. He would thrive in just about any home environment as long as his family is ready to continue helping him learn and grow.

Nico is crate trained, sleeps through the night beside you in bed, and is highly food motivated, making training fun and rewarding. He already knows a few basic commands and is at the perfect age to soak up everything his forever family wants to teach him.

During his assessment, Nico showed no food, toy, or handling sensitivities. You can touch his ears, paws, tail, even his mouth, and he simply melts into the attention.

Most of all, Nico has a gentle, loving heart that makes him impossible not to fall for. He’s silly, curious, cuddly, and full of life — a puppy through and through.

What Nico needs now is a forever family ready for a lifetime of adventures, belly rubs, and unconditional love.

If you’re ready to be rescued by Nico the way this sweet little pup is being rescued, we’d love to hear from you.
