I Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You

Nike (aka Jack)

  Sometimes Nike stares off into the distance dreaming of what a forever home would look like.  For some reason I think he knows that I am not the person that is going to take care of him all his days.  Some of my rescues think I am that person, but not Nike.  Nike has been quick to figure things out and he summed up his situation with me in no time.  Don't get me wrong..... Nike follows me most places in the house and outside and loves me to scratch behind his ears,  but if the front door is left open even a crack he will make a wild dash and not look back.  Unfortunately, this has happened a couple times and we found out the hard way that Nike has a stubborn streak.  He likes to run wild and free....
 
Nike likes people.  He likes them so much that he wants to jump up and plant a super slobbery kiss on the face of everyone he meets.  It is not always appreciated and he wiggles so much that it is hard to contain him.  His puppy ways are intense and sometimes hard to deal with since he is sixty pounds of pure unrestrained might.

Nike is relentlessly happy and full of life even though life has given him some huge obstacles to overcome.  Maybe that is why he can jump so high......

Nike has a bunch of Riley's old toys scattered all around our house.  He loves toys......but, a forever family will be his greatest treasure and I know it will bring him peace in his heart.  I think a forever family is also what most of us humans hope for and treasure most in life.  I am not so sure that Nike doesn't have it all figured out!
