About this Dog
**Meet Rusty – Your Loyal Sidekick!** Rusty is a 4-year-old Boston Terrier with a heart full of love and a playful spirit! This sweet boy is happiest when he’s by your side (or in your suitcase, ready for an adventure!). Rusty thrives in a home with another dog, ideally his brother or a gentle, submissive pup who will match his calm and friendly energy. Rusty would do best with a family that has plenty of time to spend with him—he’s all about connection and companionship. He loves being part of the action, whether that’s playing, snuggling, or just hanging out. Rusty is neutered, house-trained, and full of love — but he still occasionally “leaves a little note” here and there (yes, he marks sometimes). We think he just wants to make sure everyone knows he’s been somewhere special — like your heart, your couch, or your favorite indoor plant. Rusty also has a special little routine that makes him extra unique: he gets a small Benadryl injection once a day. As a puppy, he was bitten by a tick, and ever since, his body has needed a little help managing an allergic response. The shot is quick and easy, and Rusty is a total pro about it — just a small part of his day that helps him stay his happy, healthy self. Rusty is: - **Friendly and social** – He loves having both human and canine buddies. - **Loyal and loving** – Always ready to shower you with affection. - **Well-mannered** – A sweet-natured pup who just wants to be loved. If you’re looking for a devoted companion and have room in your heart (and home!) for this lovable boy, Rusty is ready to join your pack. With his goofy personality and endless love, he’ll make your family complete! **Adopt Rusty today and give him the forever home he deserves!**

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