About this Dog
Meet Bindi the pint sized herding breed pup. Bindi arrived as a stray so her background is a bit of an unknown. She is still very much a work in progress â gaining confidence about her surroundings and new people by the day. Once she warms up, she enjoys interacting with people. Bindi has been observed to be a bit inexperienced and fearful of dogs since her arrival at the Shelter. She would thrive in a home with a dog savvy adopter as the only dog. Bindiâs adopters may want to work with a qualified behavior consultant to do low pressure, thoughtful behavior modification to help Bindi learn that not all dogs are spooky. Dog parks and high traffic dog areas are likely to cause Bindi stress at this time so they should be avoided. Now through July 19th, adoption fees are reduced to $70 thanks to the BISSEL Pet Foundation's Empty the Shelter event!Please note: Our Santa Cruz locationâs Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end âmeet and greetsâ (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If youâd like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.

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