Owner: Crzy4Bgls
About Me: I went to doggy daycare with my brother Andy, who was not my brother at the time. My old guardian no longer wanted to take care of me because I was "too much for her..." so she left me at the kennel. Luckily my new mom was working there at the time and decided since Andy and me got along so well, we should be brothers for life. So I got to go home with them, and I couldn't be happier!
Nicknames: Nicky, Nicko, Fluffy Butt
My Motto: Fear nothing!
Likes: Car rides, going for walks, playing with brothers, watching television

Best Tricks: Jumping about three feet in the air for no apparent reason.
Favorite Activities: Getting rowdy with my bros. Oh, and I am the official guard dog of the household.
Favorite Food: Fruit...yeah I'm weird.
