Nikki

We got Nikki from our local animal control facility when she was just a little puppy- weighing only a fraction of what she weighs today. It is hard to believe that such a small, cute puppy can grow into such a large, gorgeous dog!

She spends most of her days just lazing around... when she decides to play, she tires out pretty quick- she would rather just be lazy! She is a little overweight, but that just adds character to this big, beautiful lady.

She loves to have her big belly rubbed and scratched, and she loves attention. She will go crazy begging for attention until you pay her some.

My most memorable moment of Nikki would have to have been one night when she was sleeping in the bed with me (and by sleeping I mean taking over every single inch of space in the bed, leaving me with no option but to hang myself off the side!) I heard Nikki get up, which was unusual, and then I heard something I would have rather not heard- she was throwing up! To my surprise, she had thrown up a rock! It must have been a very delicious looking rock, because other than that, I have no idea why she would ever want to eat a rock.
