Nico

My story

Meet Nico! This handsome 3-year-old Lab mix weighs about 45 pounds, is fully vetted, and ready to find his forever family! He’s the perfect medium size—big enough for adventures but small enough to snuggle. Nico has that classic Lab sweetness and charm, always eager for affection and companionship. Whether it’s going for a walk, playing outside, or relaxing by your side, Nico will be your loyal buddy through it all. Nico would do best in a home with a friendly resident dog who can help him learn the ropes and build his confidence. He also enjoys having the TV or radio on, which helps him feel more comfortable and relaxed. Nico is not a fan of being crated, so a home that can offer him a more open, cozy environment will help him thrive. With a little patience and time to settle in, Nico will be a wonderful addition to your family.
