Nico

Howdy there! I'm Nico, a handsome 2-year-old German Shepherd ready to find my forever family. I weigh about 90lbs and I'm a big, athletic boy who loves to stay active. Whether it's daily walks, hiking, or running, I can keep up with all your adventures! I'm also a smart cookie and very food-motivated, so I think training will be a breeze, especially with treats like cheese or hot dogs! I'm house and crate trained, and I get along well with large female dogs, so I'd love a canine pal to play with. I'm looking for an experienced owner who can provide consistent structure and routine, and help me understand that I'm not the boss – though I do love to think I am!

Ideal Home

I'm looking for a home with teenage or adult humans. I do not do well with cats.

Ongoing Health

I am up-to-date on vaccinations, heartworm testing, and monthly preventatives. I have also been spayed.

Training & Support

I need full obedience training to become a well-behaved canine citizen. My food motivation makes me eager to learn, and with the right guidance, I'm sure I'll master it all!
