About this Dog
We rescued this dog from a place he was kept and wasn't being fed, was being bitten by the father dog who would take any food there was from him and pup was severely malnutrtioned. We also believe he might've been being hit by owner. He waonly 33 lbs when we brought him home a week ago yet he's taller and longer than our 5lb dog so he should probably be closer to 55-60 lbs. I already 8n 1 week he gained 9 lbs and is now 42 lbs. He's very what and learned "sit" command within 30 min by watching our dog. He's now also learned "lay down". He needs all day care as we don't have a yard to put him in as he poops ever 1-2 hrs from when he wakes up till at least half the day. He probably needs a thorough vet exam too which we have no money for. And we already have a cat and 2 dogs. Our dog is growling and jealous of this pup. And the pup is showing some signs of aggression towards our female cat. We are also 2wks away from doing Fertility treatment to bring a baby into our home so it is impossible to keep him AND we work 10-14 hour days.

Adopt Rusty and Receive Rusty'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, Rusty's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.

How will Rusty receive the contribution?
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Rusty, thank you for providing a home and a loving family! Please begin the process of claiming Rusty'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 Rusty was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Rusty’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
What happens to unclaimed funds?
We want the Rusty’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, Rusty’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!
