Niko's Story

Hello! I'm Niko. I'm around 1 year old and have a lot of energy and love to give! My foster mom thinks I'm a cattle dog mix. I'm potty trained and kennel trained. I know sit and "shake" and am very food motivated to learn more! I have resource guarding issues with food (my foster mom is working on that). I would be best suited in a home without small children because of my guarding issue or is willing to continue working with me!<br/><br/>I will be fully vetted prior to adoption.

All of our animals go directly from the shelter to a foster home, where our amazing foster families work with the animal on any training that may be needed prior to adop...
