Oh, hello you! Nicholas here.

I've walked long roads and learned that trust unfolds like the perfect nap—best when unhurried, warm, and entirely on my own timeline.

Word is I'm a championship snuggler. I don't like to brag, but the notes don't lie.

I'm a Princeton local, just waiting on the right person.

Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.

Who knows — by Labor Day I might be napping on somebody's couch. I'd love it to be near you, one way or another.

Either way, thank you for seeing me today. That part mattered more than you know. — Nicholas

About Nicholas

Nicholas is a sweet, happy dog with a gorgeous brindle coat and a heart that is learning to trust again. He was found as a stray in Texas alongside two other small dogs, and it's likely he's spent a long time on the streets. Despite his past, Nicholas has a sweet demeanor and shows his love in his own quiet, heartfelt way. He does best with slow, patient introductions to new people and a home that lets him build trust at his own pace. Once he warms up, Nicholas leans into affection, showing just how loving and loyal he can be. Nicholas would thrive in a calm, understanding home that can offer him time, patience, and plenty of gentle love. He would also prefer to have another confident dog in the home so that he can model his behavior off of theirs. Nicholas is from Texas.
