About this Dog
Meet Wiley! Wiley is named for his wiley ability to avoid the humans when he was running around the streets. We'll get to that story in a bit, but first we want to tell you what a shy sweetheart this guy is. Wiley is an approximately five-year-old Chihuahua mix (heavy on the mix!), weighing around 17 pounds. He is initially very nervous and avoidant with new people. Wiley has spent some time in a foster home and is doing amazing so far in a home setting, with a little time and patience. His foster mom says Wiley loves cuddling up in blankets and has even joined them for some cuddles in bed, recently. We feel Wiley would do best in a relatively quiet home with no children, and at least one other dog to show him the ropes. He thrives with routine, and as a part of a pack! Wiley needs a home setting (no apartments) with a secure fence/backyard and grass area, so his special paw doesn't get hurt on gravel. Wiley loves to sunbathe in the grass, and although he has a "bum" leg, he sure can move when he wants to! Wiley's foster mom says, "he is a sensitive soul that warms up quickly and makes every little bit of affection that much sweeter". A little more about Wiley's past: Wiley was humanely trapped while spotted as a stray; this was definitely not his first rodeo with the trap, and he avoided it for a bit until he was brought to safety off the streets. From there, Chi Town Rescue stepped in to take care of Wiley. You will have noticed Wiley's leg by now; this is a chronic condition and he has seen a specialist regarding treatment. Wiley has an old (and unknown) injury to that leg, that healed wrong. He has been walking like this for quite awhile and has adapted well. The specialists believe that Wiley has nerve damage in this leg and surgery to attempt a repair would not be successful. For now, the specialists believe that leaving Wiley's leg as-is, is the best course of action. If it starts to bother him at some point down the road, he may require amputation. His future family should be aware of this possibility and willing to provide Wiley with any necessary medical treatment in the future. Wiley would love to meet you! Email [email protected] and we will get you in touch with his foster mom for a meet and greet. A home check is required prior to adopting Wiley. Wiley is neutered, has a microchip and is current on vaccines.

Adopt Wiley and Receive Wiley's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Wiley's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Wiley's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Wiley, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Wiley's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Wiley was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Wiley’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Wiley’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Wiley’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
