Nico

Meet NicoLocation: Oak Hill, OHDOB: 02/06/2025Nico is a happy, loving boy with a big personality and an active spirit. He's a smart, affectionate dog who enjoys being around his people and thrives when he has plenty of exercise and stimulation. Nico does best with an active family that can provide multiple walks a day or other outlets for his energy to help keep him happy and out of trouble.Nico gets along well with dogs his size or larger and has done great living with a female Great Dane and another dog his size. He enjoys canine companionship when matched appropriately. However, Nico does not do well with cats or smaller dogs. While he isn't intentionally aggressive, he plays too rough for smaller animals, so a home without cats or small pets is required.Nico has previously lived with children and did well overall, though he can play a bit rough with smaller kids. Because of this, he would do best in a home with older children who understand how to interact respectfully with a larger, energetic dog.When meeting new people, Nico may be a little wary of men at first, but he warms up quickly and becomes friendly and affectionate once he feels comfortable.Nico is house trained and has good manners in the home. He walks nicely on leash, rides well in the car, and goes into his crate without issue. He previously destroyed a crate tray, which may have been due to excitement or frustration, but overall he settles well when crated.One of Nico's best qualities is his joyful, easygoing personality. He's a very happy boy who listens well and enjoys spending time with his people, whether that's going for walks, playing with canine friends his size, or simply relaxing at home after a day of activity.Nico's ideal home would be with an active person or family who can meet his exercise needs. He would do well as an only dog or with a compatible medium-to-large dog companion. A home without cats or small pets is required, and older children are recommended.Nico is ready to find a home where he can continue to thrive, stay active, and share his happy, loving personality with a family of his own.All donation options, adoption applications, and important links are now in one place:https://linktr.ee/SrgdrrIf donating, please note who or what your donation is for.For more information, please email us at [email protected].
