About Nikolaj
Hi, I’m Nikolaj! My name means “victor among all” and that’s what I’ll feel like when I find myself a new family! I’m a quiet, shy boy who needs a peaceful home and patient pawrents. I’ve been told that I’m every shade of chocolate in the sunlight, from dark to caramilk and I know you humans love your chocolate! (Not me- I’ve heard it is NOT good for dogs!) I think you’ll love me just as much as you love chocolate, though, because I’m a total sweetie.
I’ll do best if I have my adult humans all to myself, though an older kiddo with a gentle nature would be a bonus. Especially if they’re ok with keeping the volume down and keeping things chilled out for me. I’m still getting used to the world and loud noises and sudden movements are still a bit scary!
I’m comfy seeing other hound friends but still not sure of different kinds of dogs. My human carers say there’s loads of different kinds, but it makes me a bit nervous. I want to start exploring and building my confidence, but I’m not quite there yet. I will need some slow and gentle encouragement to start strolling with you. What I really need is a home with zen vibes and lots of patience and love to help me live my best life. In return, you’ll get yourself a quiet companion, the occasional unexpected snooting and a pair of warm brown eyes that will melt your choccy-loving heart.
Interested?
If you think you'd be interested in meeting me, please complete an application form here https://greyhoundrescue.com.au/apply-now/ so that the volunteers at Greyhound Rescue can get on the case.
Our matchmakers go to greyt lengths to match each hound with the right family to make sure everyone's happy, and you'll become part of a wonderful rescue community with lots of support along the way!
All hounds are desexed, vaccinated, microchipped, flea and worm treated, and heartworm tested/treated. The adoption fee also includes our New Adopter Kit - collar, leash, muzzle and loads of other goodies to help you get your new hound settled into the family.
