Please welcome Nico, another Rottie boy who has found himself homeless at CDH.
Nico only arrived at the home a few hours before we asked him to come out for his pictures. He was understandably a little unsure of his surroundings, and seems to have a nasty wound on his head, so we pretty much let him do his own thing. He had a good snuffle around the vet room for a few minutes, not worried by us, but not particularly wanted to come and say 'hi'. It must be so confusing for a dog to end up in a strange place, with strange people, strange sounds and smells, but Nico seemed to take it all pretty much in his stride.
... and then we introduced him to toy Lion, and it was
at first sight
Nico washed toy Lion's ears so softly, sniffed politely at toy Lion's bottom, and gently nuzzled him around the floor to try to 'wake him up' awwwwwwwww
Nico hasn't seen the vet yet. If his owners don't come forward he will be available for rehoming from 18th February, and if you'd like more information on Nico, please phone the Dogs' Home: 029 2071 1243 or visit Cardiff Dogs' Home, Westpoint Industrial Estate, Penarth Road, open 7 days a week, 10.30 - 4pm. Mon/Thurs till 6pm

This fella arrived at the Home with an awful wound to his head and was very distressed by his new environment. The staff do a great job of giving the dogs plenty of space and time to settle in but Nico continued to show very worrying signs of distress 
He had multiple physical and behavioural issues and couldn't even tolerate the gentlest examination by the vet. Sadly, the decision was made to let Nico go peacefully and with his dignity. Sleep tight Nico, you are free from pain now big lad
