Title:  Lab Tested, Fiance Approved
Description:  If only I had Nika's zest for the unknown, unending patience & resolve, and especially her ability to love so purely...I'd be a better person!
(But I could do without her silent but deadly flatulence)

I adopted Nika in the midst of a chaotic time in my life. Go-go-go all the time - playing this sport, seeing these friends. I was having fun but unfulfilled.

I wasn't actively seeking a dog, but she followed me around nudging my ankles with her tiny wet nose. I picked her up & she fell asleep on my shoulder. She chose me.

I had no idea how rewarding dog ownership could be! She grounds me. She makes me a better & more loving person. She brings me such joy!

And in turn, I gladly spoil her. She loves the Minnehaha off-leash dog park, softball games & snowbanks. And especially "The Most Expensive Dog Toys Ever"...she got a Jeep this summer and a treadmill this winter :)

I also knew I'd met the man I was going to marry when she immediately took to him as her other best friend.

Pictured above are her favorite things - Jeep, treadmill, sand, sun, best friend cat named Biscuit, aunt Lacey and cousin Louie.
