Name: Niko
Age: 3 years
Weight: 6 lbs
Breed: Pomeranian/Chihuahua Mix
Status: Tiny, fluffy, and looking for a permanent place in someone’s arms.

About Me:
Hi, I’m Niko! I’m 3 years old, just 6 pounds, and basically the definition of a tiny dog with a very important presence.
I’m a little fluffball with bright eyes, pointy ears, and the kind of face that makes people instinctively want to scoop me up. Conveniently, at my size, that is very easy to do. I’m past the puppy stage, but still young enough to have plenty of fun ahead of me.
I’m looking for a home where I can settle in, feel secure, and become someone’s favorite little companion. I don’t take up much room physically, but I have a feeling I’ll make myself pretty important around the house.

Best Qualities:
Tiny but memorable: At 6 pounds, I may be small enough to carry with one arm, but I have no intention of being overlooked.
Fluff factor: I’ve got that soft Pomeranian look mixed with a little Chihuahua expression, and the result is pretty hard to resist.
Great age: At 3 years old, I’m beyond the baby puppy stage while still having lots of years ahead to spend with my family.
Built for companionship: I’m exactly the kind of little guy who looks like he belongs tucked beside his favorite person.

Ideal Match:
My Pawfect match is someone who appreciates the little-dog lifestyle and wants a true companion. I’d love a home where I can be included, loved on, and given time to settle into my new routine. I may be tiny, but I’m still a dog with my own personality, preferences, and need for consistency, so I’m looking for someone who will treat me like family—not just a cute accessory.

Deal Breakers:
If you’re looking for a dog who can be treated like a stuffed animal, we probably aren’t a match. I may weigh only 6 pounds, but I still deserve my space, respect, and time to adjust. And if you’re not prepared to share your lap, blankets, or possibly your favorite chair, Niko may not be the guy for you.

Fun Fact: Pocket-sized pup. Full-sized heart.
