Nix - 12 year old male Labrador Cross

Nix is 12 years old Labrador cross boy. The poor chap has had a hard life from a pup: at 9 months he was hit by a speeding car and dragged down the road, this resulted in him losing a front leg. Nix thought he was lucky to have an owner. I’m not sure I agree. He seems to have had a tough life. He has been plagued by a flea allergy caused by poor husbandry, he has a bald patch on his back. He has also spent a large chunk of his life roaming the streets.

Then, to cap it all, his owner went and got himself into BIG trouble, and was sent off to one of Her Majesty’s Holiday Camps for several years, while poor Nix, who had committed no crime, was left homeless. Not one of his owner’s relatives was prepared to keep him and a one way trip to the vets was arranged.

Nix is a lovely friendly old gent, seems fit and healthy, but does have a slight heart murmur. He is great with other dogs and is house-trained.
