Meet Nick, a four year old Lab/Pit mix weighing 56 pounds. Nick's story is a bittersweet one. He was originally adopted from Yakima Humane Society as a puppy, so it breaks our hearts to see him back with us now. Nick was recently brought in by Animal Control along with another dog and a cat after his owner was hospitalized. Sadly, no family members came forward to take them, so Nick is now searching for a new place to call home. If you're looking for a calm, easygoing companion, Nick might be your perfect match. He is incredibly well-behaved and has quickly become a favorite around the shelter. Rather than causing a fuss, Nick is content to spend his days hanging out in a staff member's office, relaxing on a cozy bed, and taking the occasional potty break. On leash, Nick is a dream. He'll happily follow your lead and stroll along by your side without any drama. While he can be a little unsure in new situations, he's a sensitive soul who simply needs a little time and reassurance. Once he feels comfortable, his laid-back personality shines through. Nick has shown he is house trained when he was brought home by a staff member for a sleepover. He gets along well with other dogs so far and is just an easy guy to love. He will sit on dog beds happily or if he is allowed on the couch he will find a comfy spot to hang out. We cannot say enough about how amazing this guy is and he we seriously be someone’s heart dog, Nick isn't asking for much—just a quiet home, a soft place to rest, and people who will love him as much as he'll love them. After losing the only home he knew, this sweet boy deserves a true second chance. If you have room in your heart for a gentle, loyal companion, Nick is ready to be your best friend.
