About this Dog

Cal is the sweetest boy you could ever find. He's smart and motivated, loves working on his training, and he seems like he could be an expert in sporting competitions or nosework with the right training. His favorite game is fetch, and he loves all toys (especially the squeaky ones). He'll find his favorite, and ask you to play! He can be reactive to some dogs at first (though he's made a lot of progress with his leash manners!), but when he makes a friend, they're friends for life. He also gets a little nervous around unfamiliar people or situations. We've been working a lot on building his confidence and learning that the world isn't a scary place, but he likely needs an experienced adopter who can keep coaching him to be as polite in public as he is at home. Right now, he isn't quite ready for daycare, boarding, or a dog walker, so we need to find him a home where those aren't as vital in the near term. Hopefully your home can be the place where he can live his best life!

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

How will Cal receive the contribution?

The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Cal, thank you for providing a home and a loving family! Please begin the process of claiming Cal'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 Cal was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Cal’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 Cal’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, Cal’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!
