About this Dog
We adopted Nyx, a young-adult, purebred spayed German Shepherd, from my daughter in June of this year. I brought her to Colorado from Kansas where she had been suffering from allergies and bad hips due to weight gain.
We switched her food to a 50/50 mix of salmon and white fish (Fromm's). The fish oil has helped her so much! She LOVES to play fetch and I mean, she LOVES TO PLAY fetch. She is very ball-focused. She has lost weight and her hips are not so tight anymore. She's gotten pretty fast. The vet says she is very healthy.
She is best with children age 9+ and does prefer to be the only pet. She loves humans and human contact.
She doesn't wander but does like to chase rabbits if she sees them. She does well on a leash but doesn't require one. She's great with voice commands, although she has confused 'Sit' with 'Spit the ball out', Lol
She loves belly rubs and head rubs. She doesn't mind if you rub her ears and she will let you look at her mouth and teeth with no problems.
Please let me know if you would like any additional information.

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

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