About Nico

Nico is quite the handsome fellow with his striking black and white features. After coming from an overcrowded shelter, he's found comfort in foster care where he's learned some great manners. At 43 lbs and about 2 years old, he's well-mannered and eager to please. This affectionate boy knows commands like sit, shake, and spin, and he's currently working on mastering stay. He enjoys the company of other dogs and would thrive with a sibling around. Nico's foster mom describes him as a lovable, curious, and sweet boy who's gentle enough to delicately take treats right from her mouth! He enjoys walk time and absolutely adores car rides. While he’s not fond of being crated alone, he’s content with another dog by his side. You can visit Nico and his friends from noon to 3 PM on Saturdays and Sundays, or by appointment. Make sure to apply if you’re interested!
