Niko Doberman Pinscher Fleetwood, PA

Meet Niko, a spirited European Doberman born on July 15th, 2021. This handsome black and tan boy, originally from Serbia, weighs about 83 pounds but would be healthiest at around 85-90 pounds. Niko is neutered, up-to-date on all vaccinations, and microchipped. He’s a bundle of energy and intelligence, with a high drive that needs plenty of physical and mental exercise.

Niko is quick, smart, and eager to please, making him a great candidate for agility, obedience, and IGP sports. He's affectionate and has a lot of love to give to the right home. He thrives on structure and routine, and with consistency and patience, he’ll continue to grow into an exceptional companion. He rides amazingly well in the car. Loves it!

Healthy and active, Niko is on heartworm, flea, and tick preventative and has no reactivity to grooming, including nails and ears. He's housetrained and enjoys attending daycare. His favorite toy is a Kong tennis ball, and he’s very food motivated. While he’s good with older kids (13+), he would do best in a home without young children. He is also a big lovebug!

Niko needs a committed owner who can continue his training, as he’s not a fan of the crate and needs work on his leash manners. He requires a securely fenced yard (at least 6 feet) because he’s a fast and high jumper. Niko loves to run and play with other dogs, but his interaction with cats is unknown. He initially feared thunder from storms, however, was able to overcome his fear and now he is no longer bothered by them.

Niko is working on his separation anxiety and has shown progress. He’s also "growly" when excited for meals, which is just an anxious quirk and not aggression. With zero resource guarding, Niko’s only aim is to please and protect his family.

If you’re an experienced dog owner ready to provide a loving, structured home for a smart and energetic Doberman, Niko could be the perfect addition to your family: Right now Niko is located in Ontario, Canada. Please apply: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DPR/Dog
