Hi, my name is Nikki, and I'm from Arkansas! Nikki is an absolute love. She is affectionate, patient, and loves everyone she meets (humans and dogs). She is fully house trained, sleeps through the night without a peep, walks well on a leash (but interested in little critters!) and can play fetch but also sleep for much of the day. She can be a bit timid with stairs and exploring new spaces, but once introduced, she acclimates quickly. She is 53 pounds and quite long (especially standing on hind legs), with a few large brown spots and a very expressive tail! She can startle with loud sounds or quick movements, and would love an owner who lets her know she is safe.
