NICKI NOTEBOOK - LABRADOR RETRIEVER / SHEPHERD / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Posted Breed: Labrador Retriever / Shepherd / Mixed (short coat). Meet Nicki Notebook! Nicki Notebook was surrendered to San Diego Humane Society-Escondido because her parents were getting divorced, and both moved to more affordable housing that did not allow dogs. We scooped her up to become a Frosted Face on September 11th. She is 10 years old, weighs 60 lbs., and is very sweet. Nicki’s family indicated that she lived with two young kids, she is house-trained, accustomed to living indoors, and was crate trained using the word “place.” The family indicated they would not choose to part with her if they were not getting divorced. SDHS volunteers figured out that Nicki was also taught to SIT and SHAKE in her previous home! Nicki Notebook went on a two-week Frosted Fling, and this is what her fling family told us about her: “Nicki Notebook has amazing manners. She never begs for food and she didn't even move when I accidentally left my breakfast unattended next to her! She has a good appetite and was great eating next to our dog - who she got along with so well! Nicki Notebook sleeps soundly through the night and does not move around a lot. She is also 100% house-trained! Nicki enjoyed brisk walking and hiking. We went on 45 minute to 1 hour walks every morning as well as shorter 15 minute walks through the neighborhood every afternoon. The rest of the day, Nicki was content to hang out around the house and enjoyed being wherever my Whippet was. Nicki met many people in the neighborhood and was friendly and accepted pets from all. Nicki enjoyed snuggling up on the couch with me when I watched TV. On our neighborhood walks, Nicki Notebook became familiar with the dogs she heard barking behind fences and her hackles no longer went up. Nicki needs slow and cautious introduction to other dogs. Nicki and my Whippet (who is also dog selective) got along fantastically. I was able to leave them alone together in the house after only 4 days. They were two peas in a pod and really enjoyed being together! Nicki Notebook was easy to bathe. She let me Dremel her toe nails and clean her ears. She loves to be covered with blankets when she sleeps. She slept either in bed with my daughter or on a dog bed in my room. Nicki Notebook loves to be close to her humans, but showed no separation anxiety when we left the house.” Nicki is currently on a second Frosted Fling, but she is still on the lookout for a forever home.
