Nick's Story

Meet Nick- The Pup who deserves a chance!<br/><br/>Nick is a terrier/Jack Russell mix who came to us after being transferred from another shelter, and much of his past remains a mystery. What we do know is that the world has been a scary place for him. Nick is fearful and cautious, and he has learned to protect himself by keeping his distance. He may not be potty trained, and it will take time before he feels safe enough to let someone pet him.<br/><br/>But here's the remarkable part: Nick has a heart that is ready to trust, if only given the chance. The right person could be the first to show him gentle affection, the first to teach him that hands can comfort, and the first to give him a home where he feels truly safe. Every small moment of patience and love will mean the world to him, and every tiny step he takes toward trust is a huge victory.<br/><br/>Nick will need a calm, patient, and understanding home where someone can let him move at his own pace. He is not broken-he is waiting for someone willing to meet him where he is and show him that love doesn't have to be scary. To the person who is willing to take the time, Nick will offer a loyalty, affection, and bond unlike any other. You have the chance to be his first real love, and to show him what it means to feel safe, cherished, and truly at home.<br/><br/>Dogs: Unknown, please bring all pups in to see this pup!<br/>Cats: Unknown<br/>Kids: Must meet every person in the home!
