About this Dog
Introducing Akiko! Akiko is an adult Shih Tzu who weighs 12 pounds. She came from a shelter without any knowledge of her background, so we are thinking she is between 8-10 years old. Akiko is a friendly, bubbly, loving, enthusiastic little girl! She is just adorable; she looks like a real-life stuffed animal. Akiko has a great personality and has already made many human and furry friends in her foster home. She gets along with dogs of all sizes and also likes cats. She is friendly to visitors of all kinds. Akiko is a quiet girl, she does not bark excessively, only a bit when appropriate. Her favorite pastimes are being around her people, cuddling on the couch, and going for long walks. Akiko is interested in being involved in anything that is going on. She is curious and engaged, vibrant. This obedient little girl is fully housebroken and sleeps through the night. She will sleep on her dog bed but prefers sleeping with humans. Akiko came to us with only one eye, but it is part of her charm and does not slow her down at all. Akiko does well in the car and does not have separation anxiety, however she would make a great companion for someone who is home most of the time as human interaction and companionship is very important to her. Is Akiko the perfect pup for you? She is spayed, microchipped and current on vaccines. Her adoption fee is $300.

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