Adoption fee: $750 Meet Stars & Stripes – The Sweetest Gals in Town! Stars and Stripes are two darling 9–10 week old Yorkie mix sisters who came to us after being abandoned in the Central Valley — but you’d never guess it from their cheerful spirits and loving hearts. These girls have blossomed beautifully in their foster home, transforming from a bit shy to sweet, playful pups who radiate affection and charm. Their days are a gentle rhythm of potty breaks, zoomies, cuddles, and naps. Mornings are all about playtime and breakfast after a backyard potty break, followed by mid-morning snuggles and snoozes in their cozy playpen. They enjoy lunch around noon, more playtime, and by evening, they love winding down with a "walk" (or a puppy sling ride!), more cuddles, and bedtime in their shared playpen. They sleep soundly through the night— no midnight mischief here! Personality Snapshot: Star (the leader of the duo) is clever, curious, and a little bossy in the most endearing way. She learns quickly, voices her opinion with a bark or two if she’s left behind, and will warm up once she feels secure. Star is the first to figure things out and has a thinner, more delicate build. Stripe is calm, sweet, and a touch reserved. She’s often the first to greet new visitors and charms everyone with her gentle gaze and innocent expression. Stripe is happy to follow Star’s lead but also perfectly content to nap in her bed and observe the world with quiet curiosity. They’re both incredibly affectionate, enjoying short cuddle sessions, chin scratches, and soft belly rubs. While they’re not true velcro pups, they’ll always be nearby— whether snoozing in the same room or quietly playing while keeping an eye on their humans. Good Pup Report: *Doing great with potty training – Star prefers the grass, Stripe knows her way around a potty pad. *Sleep through the night in their playpen without a peep. *Excellent with the resident senior dogs and respectful of their space. *Show only mild digging behavior (quickly redirected), and chew only on appropriate toys. *Minimal barking, usually just to say "Good Morning!" or if Star’s feeling left out. These girls aren’t wild balls of energy— they’re more of the “morning zoomies, afternoon loungers” variety. They love to play but tire easily, making them great fits for homes looking for calm and snuggly companions over all-day athletes. Why adopt Stars or Stripes? Because they’re dream puppies. Sweet, snuggly, well-mannered for their age, and full of potential. Their foster family says they’re some of the easiest, most lovable puppies they’ve had—and when you feel one of them melt into your chest during a cuddle, you’ll understand exactly why. Bonus: When you pick up Star or Stripe, you’ll be treated to one of the most heart-melting sights imaginable: a tiny pup looking up into your eyes with complete trust and love. It’s a moment that will stay with you forever.

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