About this Dog
Meet Poncho! He's a very sweet 2.5 year old Sheltie-Duck tolling retreiver mix who loves to run. He is proficient in over 15 commands, house trained, leash trained, bike trained, does well at the vet, crate trained, muzzle trained, and is well socialized with other dogs. Poncho is looking for a quiet home with teenage or older children. He would prefer all the love to himself but could also do well paired with a confident female dog. Poncho has "stranger danger" and can be fear reactive when triggers are stacked. He also has barrier frustration when put behind gates or doors. Poncho would be a great fit for someone with an active lifestyle, he loves to move, does well in the car, and is very cuddly. He's been temperament trained through pets alone at times, he loves them that much. Poncho was found tied to a tree with his sisters as a 6-month-old puppy, causing stranger danger and anxiety when "stuck". He's worked with a behavioralist for the last two years and is finally ready for his forever home. Poncho's behavioralist is willing to work closely with Poncho's new family as he transitions into his new home, free of charge.

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