Niko von Arosa is an adorable 4-5 month-old shepherd mix puppy.  Based on his appearance – a very soft and fluffy coat and those floppy ears – as well as his sweet temperament and more mellow personality, we think he may be part Golden Retriever or Great Pyrenees (just a guess).  Niko is well-socialized with kids and other dogs in his foster home where he is getting lots of love and attention. Housebroken and crate trained, this sweet little guy is excited to greet his foster mom each morning after a peaceful night’s sleep, showering her with kisses before trouncing off to the yard for some fun and to ‘do his business’. His very favorite time of day is when the grandkids visit because he knows it means tons of gentle strokes and lap cuddling! Niko’s leash training is coming along nicely -- he enjoys his neighborhood outings where he’s excited to meet and greet other furry friends.  And he’s fully vaccinated so he’d make a perfect companion for your doggie play group!  His foster mom tells us that he’s one of the easiest and most mild-tempered puppies she’s fostered.  If you can envision this cuddly pup as part of your family’s pack, we encourage you to meet Niko!

Rescued from the San Bernardino animal shelter.
