This was Niko’s home — his castle, his citadel, his fortress with a 360-degrees view. He roamed from window to window watching, inspecting supervising reigning over his kingdom. Niko is absolute proof that the dog is indeed a chosen being. When I looked deeply into his eyes, I saw his soul. At times it was fused with my soul, speaking to me clearer than the human speech, sharing his thoughts, expressing his sentiments, interpreting my words. Dog is a friend, a companion, a member of the family, with intelligent mind and pure heart — overflowing with love. After you read the memoir of Niko’s life, I hope you will agree.
