About this Dog
I’m a sweet, playful, and loyal companion who forms strong bonds with my people. I’m very affectionate and will instinctively protect you if I sense danger. Once I understand that your home is my home, I settle in beautifully and can stay alone for long periods without barking. I adore human companionship and prefer people over other dogs, though I can have fun with dogs my own size. I enjoy hiking, running, paddle boarding, and going on boat rides but I’m not a fan of swimming and prefer to stay dry. I would thrive with a retired couple or someone with a calm lifestyle who can offer me love, stability, and multiple walks. I’m also a fantastic little watchdog, always alert and keeping a gentle eye on the home. If you are interested in meeting River, please download the Adoption Questionnaire, fill it out and email it back to us at [email protected] or fax (310) 362-0321. You can also meet this and/or other available dogs at our weekend adoptions. [River is 9 years old and weighs 10 lbs.] (2505)

Adopt River and Receive River'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, River's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is River's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the River, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming River'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 River was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, River’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the River’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, River’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!
