Nickolas

Once trained to ride a tricycle as a youngster, then trained to perform in circuses, both Nickolas and Gypsy await their new habitat at ARK2000. Because Nickolas is a bull and unpredictable regarding what will happen as he gets older, extra secure steel fencing is needed to contain him, making this a more expensive venture for PAWS. But, thanks to Bob Barker who helped not only Maggy to relocate to ARK2000 from Alaska but donated to build Nickolas and Gypsy a special barn at ARK 2000. The taste of freedom is just around the corner.... it will be a happy day when everything is ready for them to go over there.
