About Nikki
Meet Nikki, an affectionate Poodle (or perhaps Poodle/Maltese) needing a new family to shower her with love and attention. She weighs 7.8 kgs.
Born on April 20, 2024, Nikki came into care alongside her littermate, Paris.
Abandoned by her former owners, life has been rough for Nikki. You can tell from the photos taken by our wonderful groomer Fran that Nikki was overwhelmed by the activity in the salon. When you’ve spent months living in a cage in a junk yard, you can be forgiven for feeling out of your depth in new surroundings.
But this darling girl is all cleaned up and ready for a fresh start. Due to past flea infestations and general neglect, her coat has lost some curl and thickness, but with time and care, it should return to a plusher state.
Nikki has the makings of a loving companion. She’s hungry for attention and affection. Despite lacking formal training, she shows a strong desire to learn and is eager to please.
Her love for people is boundless, and she's also great with other dogs. However, she's not fond of cats and tends to bark at them.
With her lovable personality and a little guidance, Nikki is ready to blossom into a well-mannered and devoted family member.
If you're looking for a loving and loyal friend to fill your days with joy and companionship, Nikki could be the perfect fit!
Medical notes
No known pre-existing conditions.
Nikki was desexed on 5 March 2025.
