Nickle (A570491) made his way to us as a stray from Madison County, found alone in a cornfield without any signs of his owner. Starting life in such a way must have been frightening for this sweet young puppy, but he has quickly settled in. On our adoption floor, he greets visitors with enthusiasm and tries to make friends with everyone who comes by. At just 6 months old, Nickle embodies the affectionate spirit typical of livestock guardian breeds. However, potential adopters should be aware: these dogs are known for their loyalty but can also be quite independent and a bit stubborn. His future family will need to ensure secure fencing or be prepared to leash walk Nickle regularly to keep him safe. As he will grow into a large breed, routine grooming will also be necessary. While Nickle is a wonderful companion, he is not a low-maintenance puppy and will need a committed and understanding owner. Are you ready to give Nickle the loving home he deserves? Stop by 4950 Triana Blvd SW in Huntsville, Alabama, to meet him; no appointment is needed to visit our animals. All adopters must be at least 19 years old and provide a valid ID.
