My story

Foster, Foster to Adopt, or Adopt Nike! This beautiful Shep/Lab was surrendered to The REAL Bark when his owner could not afford to have his very large sock removed from his belly - apparently the second eating occurrence as a puppy!! This life-saving surgery gave Nike a new lease on life. Now almost one year old Nike has blossomed into a very magical pup - full of vibrant personality. He is smart, a fast learner, eager to please, yet very curious and loves life. Nike is practicing his basic commands, is fully house trained and crate trained, and walks great on leash especially with another dog companion to venture out with. He has been spending time in a special training camp with other fun loving dogs, and is very playful and does very well listening to a good effective leader. He is a working dog and would do well in a home with a large secure yard with a few jobs. His best home would be very active, lots of walks and hikes and adventures, with people who understand being a good pack leader to a large active and curious dog. He would also do well with another medium to large dog who would be happy to be around a playful brother. If you are looking for a beautiful, majestic and active companion, contact us at therealbark@gmail.com. Note that we are set up to adopt within the LA area.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Nike, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
