A little about them

Meet Nico, a smart and well-mannered 3-year-old Cattle Dog mix. He is playful, affectionate, loyal, and loves tug-of-war. Nico walks wonderfully on leash and is ready to become an active companion and best friend.

Ideal Home

Nico is great with other dogs and can join families with children, though a home with small children is not recommended because he may become nippy when excited. No fenced yard is required. Cats have not been evaluated.

Ongoing Health

Nico is neutered, vaccinated, current on prevention, and microchipped.
