Nico, the Dog of the Day
Name: Nico
Age: Eleven months old
Gender: Male Breed: Samoyed
Home: Manchester, England
 
   Nico loves eating ice cubes, toilet rolls and his daddy's dirty old socks. He has bags of personality, talks to us, is sweet natured and patient and a joy to own. He has developed a special penchant for opening the washing machine and pulling the washing out all over the floor. But we love him anyway. He sleeps on a marble slab and loves watching fireworks!

    Hi yes, Nico is very affectionate. He jumps onto the bed every morning and gives his mum a huge kiss, then rolls over on this back for tum rub. Apart from digging huge holes in the garden (it's a Samoyed thing) he give us "five" (shaking paw whilst lying down) and likes playing hide and seek in our cellar with us. He is extremely stubborn, (another Samoyed thing) and selectively deaf. He knows and ignores the command "come," but can hear a chocolate wrapper crackling from five miles away! He has the most expressive eyes, and when he speaks to us, it's almost as though he's trying to form words. My partner says that at times, Nico is so human he seems like a boy in a white fluffy suit.
