Original:
When Niko was found as a stray in Virginia and was taken to the local shelter, the shelter staff contacted MAESSR.
This fun boy is just as cute and sweet as they come. He loves to play, wrestle, and love and it does not have to be in that order! He is typical puppy in most of his mannerisms and will definitely benefit from the obedience classes that will be required of his adoptive home.
Niko has adjusted to sleeping in a crate after initially refusing to go in. Now he just enters and takes a nap. He is crated at night and while his foster parents are at work. Niko rides very well in the car; he just lies down and goes to sleep. Niko is not 100% reliable in the house training department, yet. He almost has the idea, but some times he gets so busy playing that he forgets to go outside until it is too late.
This sweet boy is going to be a wonderful addition to some lucky home!
