Meet Nike
Nike is a gorgeous, petite, and gentle, approximately 9-year-old girl with a heart of gold! Originally from a Reservation in South Dakota, Nike spent the past seven years in a loving family home in Omaha before coming back into rescue: sadly, her previous owner was facing health and financial difficulties and heartbreakingly, could no longer care for Nike. Now, this sweet girl is hoping for a fresh start and a forever family to call her own! Nike is an absolute sweetheart who will steal your heart with her affectionate, loving nature. She loves nothing more than snuggling up close, giving hugs, soaking up belly rubs, and being near her favorite people. She's a wonderful companion who is just as happy joining you on an adventure as she is curling up beside you for a cozy movie night. And don't let her age fool you! Nike still has plenty of pep in her step and LOVES her walks! She's also crate-trained, fully potty-trained, and has excellent house manners. She can be trusted loose in the house when left alone, but will happily kennel up when needed. She's wonderful with people, enjoys meeting new friends, and does well with respectful, well-behaved children. Nike's favorite things? Treats, attention, affection, and more attention! In fact, she would be happiest as the only dog in the home, where she doesn't have to share all the love and attention she so deserves. With her beautiful, distinctive markings, dainty build, and incredibly sweet personality, Nike is truly a total doll. She's past the puppy crazies, knows how to be a wonderful house companion, and has so much love left to give. If you're looking for a devoted, affectionate best friend who will happily accompany you through life's little adventures and then snuggle up at the end of the day, Nike might just be your girl! Nike's adoption fee is $225, all of which goes back into offseting our high-cost vetting expenses and rescuing more dogs. We are a 100% volunteer-run rescue group and rely on adoption fees and donations to continue saving lives. Adoption fees include spay/neuter, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, fecal, deworming, flea/tick and heartworm preventative, heartworm tested if old enough (and treated if positive), and microchipped.
