About this Dog
Courtesy post for Ben...we received below message from him looking for temp foster in MD until May/June for Duckie. If you can help email Ben at [email protected]. "Hi AAHA Team I’m looking for help finding a temporary foster for a stray puppy that my best friends found around Thanksgiving. The puppy, we've been calling her Duckie, was roaming around a gas station near in Mobile, AL. After posting signs and in the neighborhood groups, no one has claimed her. Duckie seems to be a Lab/Terrier mix and around 6ish months. She’s super sweet and loooooves being pet and cuddling. She hasn’t really learned to play with a lot of things yet. And she hasn’t gotten the hang of potty training yet. Unfortunately, my friends all work nearly full time and have two cats and two dogs in their home. So as much as they love her, they can't really manage to keep her much longer. I came home for the holidays and have told my friends I'd love to take her and give her a forever home with me where I live in Maryland. But I would have to wait until at least the end of May to early June when I plan on moving into a townhouse of my own. Unfortunately, right now, one of my roommates already has two older dogs that are aggressively reactive towards other dogs and my roommate is not a good pet owner in themselves. So it would be a very stressful and very unsupportive situation to bring a dog into. I offered my friends that if they could keep her until I'm able to drive down in the spring, that I'd pay for her food, shots, heartworm, flea/tick treatments, and some toys as well. Like I said, for my friends, it's just too much. So I can offer the same to a foster! As far as Duckie goes, she likes other dogs and is playful. But she does seem to be mouthy. She also seems fine with cats, albeit maybe even a bit afraid of them (but my friend's cat is old and ornery). In general, Duckie is high spirited and energetic but can be calmed by holding her at your side and rubbing her chest. At least in my experience, that puts her into cuddle mode! Duckie also seems eager to learn and be trained. I've gotten her to sit at my feet when I call her to me. She also does really well inside her kennel. She doesn't bark or yelp. Unfortunately she's not gotten the hang of potty training yet. Mostly she has accidents inside her kennel. My suspicion is that wherever she came from, that was the norm for her. So I think that *she* thinks she's supposed to go inside her kennel. Even when I've taken her out the past week or so, when she needs to poop, she'll sit near the backdoor to my friend's house. And I try to encourage her to come to the yard, and she'll come for attention, but she goes back to the door. Before I caught on to what was happening, after I let her back inside, she'd poop in her kennel. So I really think that's where she thinks she's supposed to go. So she'll definitely need some persistent training there. I know this is an unusual request. My friends were definitely hoping to not have to surrender her to a shelter. And I'd love to give Duckie the forever home she deserves. She and I really gravitate to each other. If y'all could help me find a foster for her in the MD area, I could arrange transport for Duckie! Best, Ben" If you can help email Ben at [email protected]. ***Disclaimer*** Unfortunately, there are not enough rooms at the inn to admit every dog that needs a furever home. But, we still want to help those dogs (and cats) on their journey! By courtesy posting, AAHA is offering our website/network as an additional resource to help an owner or shelter gain additional exposure for the dog they are trying to place. AAHA has not met nor evaluated the dog (or cat) we are courtesy posting. AAHA makes no representation about courtesy posted pets including the health and temperament and accepts no liability in this exchange. Arrangements for adoptions are made between the caretaker of the pet and the potential adopter.

Adopt Duckie and Receive Dogecoin
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, Duckie's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised. Dogecoin is digital currency that can be exchanged for cash, traded, or held as an investment (see the "What is Dogecoin" section below).
0.0 DOGE is Duckie's current Dogecoin balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the Duckie, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Duckie's Dogecoin 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 Dogecoin by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. 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 Duckie was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Duckie’s Dogecoin balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
"The fun and friendly internet currency."
Dogecoin sets itself apart from other digital currencies with an amazing, vibrant community made up of friendly folks just like you. Dogecoin is a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency that enables you to easily send money online.
Learn more about it on youtube or at dogecoin.com.
We want the Duckie’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, Duckie’s balance will remain in our general Dogecoin 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!
