About this Dog
Meet Barbus, the tan and white mixed breed. He may have some lab, some sort of terrier⦠your guess is just as good as ours! Barbus has a history of living with another pup and got along well. A home with a resident dog may be a fit provided there is a meet and greet at the Shelter prior to adoption. He has been social and curious with staff and volunteers since his arrival. He has a history of living with children as young as infant age in his previous home. He also lived in a home with dog-savvy cats. After an acclimation period and learning to coexist â Barbus did well with the cat (although he sometimes chases the kitty to solicit play). Barbus is still perfecting life skills and manners like potty training so adopters should plan to work with him through positive reinforcement based training. 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.

100% of BARBUS's balance will be sent to whoever adopts BARBUS.
Adopt BARBUS and Receive BARBUS'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, BARBUS's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is BARBUS's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the BARBUS, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming BARBUS'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 BARBUS was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, BARBUS’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the BARBUS’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, BARBUS’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!
