Meet Niko, a 4 year old and 5.8 lbs chihuahua boy looking for his forever home. He is really a good dog and loves to be next to his person and in their lap. He gets very attached to one person easily. Niko played well with 5 and 7 year old boys and was fine around other dogs.So far he hasn't barked very much. He is scared to use the potty out side with all the noise from the big city but in the suburbs he will go outside fine. Niko will do best in a quiet home in a quiet neighborhood with owners who just want a loving companion.
