Meet Nikko!

Breed: Australian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler | Age: 2.5 years | Sex: M | Weight: 45 lbs. | Health: up-to-date on vaccinations & preventatives; neutered; microchipped | Rescued from: Georgia

Nikko is a physically and mentally active ACD. Enjoys running, hiking, play (especially tug-o-war!); settles very nicely. Kids 10+ are recommended as “nipping” is a natural instinct for ACDs – Nikko will try to herd little ones and can be gently mouthy at times (but is easily corrected). Very friendly with other dogs; seems to prefer dogs of a similar size or larger. Respectful of cats, but wants to play with them on occasion. He’s a “Velcro dog” – wherever you go, he goes. He rarely barks and is nonreactive to loud sounds of all kinds. Housetrained. Attentive. Confident. Knows a few tricks. Up for adventure and fine in the car. Knows how to chill. Loves belly rubs. Happily greets strangers. Total lovebug.

Nikko would do best with an outdoorsy, active family that spends a good amount of time at home. He might be a good candidate for dog sports. Fenced yard a major plus. Couch potatoes need not apply.

Nikko is being fostered by a family with two kids under age 8 and two cats.

Nikko is a total stunner, with a wonderful disposition to boot!
