Niko's Story

Meet Niko! A gentle senior Lab mix with a heart full of love and a spirit that refuses to quit. At a whopping 93lbs, Niko is a big guy--but thankfully he's as sweet and gentle as they come. Despite a rough past, he is incredibly trusting and kind.<br/><br/>Niko is well-mannered and house-trained--he'll head to the door and give a polite little whine when he needs to go out. He sleeps peacefully in or out of a crate and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. He's patient with his energetic foster sister and loves being around his people. Sweet, cuddly, and delightfully talkative, Niko has great energy for his age and still enjoys walks, light activity, and a good game of fetch.<br/><br/>He also happens to love vegetables! 🥦<br/><br/>If you're looking for a loyal, easygoing companion who brings both calm energy and big-dog love, Niko is your guy. He's truly such a good boy.Big Paws of the Ozarks is a foster-based dog rescue in Northwest Arkansas. We require an approved adoption application on file before scheduling meets with our dogs.

Big Paws of the Ozarks's Adoption Policy
All adopters must fill out an application on our website with all necessary information. From there, our staff will conduct a phone interview and answer any questions regarding the dog or the adoption process. Once approved, a meet and greet is scheduled with the family, dog, and dog's foster family. This is the time where other pets can be introduced. If the meet and greet goes well, we can send the dog in a trial adoption for a few days to make sure it is a perfect fit for everyone. From there the adoption is finalized through payment of the adoption fee and transferring of vet records.
