Hi everyone!  I'm Nicky.  I was taken away from my owners by animal control because they did bad things to me.  I wound up in a shelter in PA where I waited for a friend for over two months.  A friend finally came and I'm living with her now in Randallstown, MD.  I am blind and lame (my back legs were broken at one point; AC suspects I was thrown from a two-story window) but I am a real trooper and get around just fine.  My favorite thing in the world is to just be close to my friend.  She has lots of other dogs here and they make me nervous so if I could go somewhere without dogs or with only very mellow dogs I would be tha happiest little eskimo boy ever.  Please let my friend (Heidi at hortmeye@gmail.com) know if you are interested in fostering or adopting me.

Update: I had my teeth cleaned yesterday (12/7) and my mouth feels so good.  I love spending time in the yard or on the couch, wherever my friend is at the moment.  I can't navigate stairs but I'm such a little fellow my friend just picks me up and takes me wherever she's going.

Update: I was seen by the ophthalmologist today (12/22/09).  I do not have glaucoma or inflammation.  I do have retinal degeneration and cataracts but I do not require any treatment; removal of the cataracts would not improve my vision.

Whenever possible Eskie Rescuers United tries to adopt out its dogs locally (or at least to adopters in adjoining states to where I'm being fostered). Please note that ERU processes LOCAL adoption applications before considering those from out of state.

If I'm not local to you, as explained above, and you really have your heart set on me, you will have to make special arrangements so ERU can get me to you safely (for example, flying me to you at your own expense, or paying a transport group to drive me to you). Note: We may ask that you to make a donation to cover transport costs if the distance is great and we have trouble finding transport drivers.

There is an adoption fee required; and, please be aware, Eskie Rescuers United will not adopt out its dogs as outdoor dogs.
