Niko

Meet Niko — 7 Pounds of Cozy, Cuddly Perfection <br/><br/>Niko is an approximately 10-year-old Chihuahua mix and a distinguished little gentleman weighing in at a mighty 7 pounds. He was found in an empty apartment hanging out with some cats, and he’s since decided that the good life is all about comfort, warmth, and snacks.<br/><br/>Niko’s top hobbies, in strict order of importance:<br/>1. Cuddling deep inside sofa blankets<br/>2. Eating soft food (he’s rocking just 4 teeth, and he uses them wisely)<br/>3. Nesting himself into bed comforters like a tiny, living throw pillow<br/><br/>He enjoys relaxing in his crate but is thrilled to share your bed at night if you’re open to hosting a very small, very warm roommate. Think canine heating pad with ears.<br/><br/>Niko is quiet, polite, and gets along just fine with other dogs, but let’s be clear — his true calling is being emotionally and physically attached to his human. He’s house trained, though he firmly believes snow is a personal insult and would much prefer to potty indoors during winter unless closely supervised. <br/><br/>This is a low-energy, low-drama senior who dreams of a predictable life filled with naps, cozy blankets, and frequent meals. Speaking of meals — Niko nearly lost his entire mind over a rotisserie chicken his foster mom was preparing. Food is love. Food is life.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a tiny companion who will happily spend his golden years snoozing beside you, warming your blankets, and silently judging your portion sizes — Niko is ready to move in and claim his spot. <br/><br/>If you are interested in finding out more about Niko, please fill out an adoption application by copying and pasting the following link into your browser:<br/><br/>https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/BRO/Dog<br/><br/>Niko is being fostered in Somerville, MA.<br/><br/>The adoption fee is $400.<br/><br/>Like Broken Tail Rescue on Facebook!.<br/><br/>Follow Broken Tail Rescue on Instagram!<br/><br/><br/>Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most of the dogs, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.<br/><br/>We expect that all adopted dogs will enroll in a formal dog training class with their new owners. Obedience and training classes are an excellent way to learn more about your newly adopted dog, gain handling and training experience, and improve your relationship with your pet.
