About nicco: 11/29 Stray / Neutered Male / Staffie Mix / 1Y 1M / 55lbs / HW-
This guy was sitting quietly in his kennel and approached the door with a wagging tail when I opened it, he was easy to leash and walked outside happily with his tail wagging, he met dogs outside with polite sniffs and an alert wagging tail and he?ll come over to you for attention when he is called, he wasn?t super interested in the treats I had to offer, but sit without me having to ask! He did all his business outside and is just a happy goofy boy with a great smile! He has a great medium energy too, so I bet he?d made a good adventure buddy and then would happily cuddle with you on the couch at the end of the day. I would take this guy home, he?s too cute!

12/31 When approaching kennel he was standing at the front of kennel door with loose wiggly body, I was able to open the door a nd place a leash on him. As soon as I opened the door a little more he then bolted out and whipped around the corner standing on his hind legs growling and thrashing his head. I had to pull him off the kennel door and walked fastly outside. As we reached outside he seen another dog in the distance, he then started to present a forward stance stalking the other dog with furrowed brows, lip licking, high erect flagging tail, ears pinned back and when the dog got closer in distance he jumped in the air growling/barking/whimpering. I tried getting his attention back to me with baby talk and treats but didn't show any interest and had to walk him in the opposite direction and was still fixated on the other dog. So I just had walked him around the property until his kennel was cleaned.
