**Nicholas will be available for adoption at Rosedale Mills, located in Pennington, NJ, over the Oct 13-15 weekend.**

Nicholas and his siblings were among 9 dogs left alone after their former owners moved and left them at a house. The pups were barely a month old at the time and were clinging to their mom for dear life. The pups were in horrible shape, full of fleas, parasites and barely eating as their mom was also starving and producing very little milk for them. Unfortunately one of the four pups didn't survive but we're thankful that Nicholas did!

Nicholas seems to have assumed the "alpha" role among his litter but isn't aggressive towards them. He plays well with other pups and is very well socialized towards people. While he'll make a great addition to just about any home, his high energy may be too much for a very young child to handle.

Nicholas  has completed all of his first year vaccinations, been wormed, treated for his parasites and flea infestation and started on her monthly preventatives. His adopter must agree to having him neutered once he reaches 6 months of age and providing proof of such to us. His mom, Nova, was recently adopted and weighed approx 45 pounds.
