About this Dog
We found Buddy the dog wandering around our neighborhood, he was wearing a collar (with no tag) and looked very well fed and taken care of so we took him to a local vet to look for a chip (he didn’t have one). We posted him on lost pets, Facebook, Neighborhood app etc. and eventually the owner contacted us with proof that the dog was his….but he’s currently living out of his truck and was trying to find a home for the dog. Ultimately the owner said he didn’t want to take him back and every rescue center/group we’ve contacted are full and aren't taking any new animals and we don't want to take him to a shelter if we can avoid it.
We know from his previous owner that his name is Buddy and he’s 3.5 years old and 62lbs. We took him to the vet so he’s up to date on shots but he still needs to be chipped/neutered, though we're trying to get him scheduled to have the procedure. We've had him for about a week so far and haven’t seen any issues with food aggression and he desperately wants to play with our beagle but unfortunately the beagle is a grumpy old man and wants nothing to do with Buddy so we have to keep them separate. He knows how to sit and shake, loves pets/scratches and chasing sticks/balls that are thrown in the yard.

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

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