About this Dog
River is a wonderful, loyal, and sweet guy! Thanks to his dedicated foster's love and patience, his confidence has grown immensely, and he still has room to grow. River approaches new situations with tentative interest. River is two-years old and 75 pounds of soft, fluffy love. He and his foster have been working on walking on leash as River prefers to run around the yard. For this reason, River's forever home must have a fenced-in yard, and it will be important to continue the leash training and exposure to new situations. This is the best way to build River's confidence and to teach him that the wide world is a fun place to explore! River can be anxious around new people and in new environments but once warmed up, he loves people (including children) and other dogs. In fact, River must have another dog in the house as he follows the lead of his current foster brother and has learned so much from him! River's daily medication helps calm him down, and this is something that his forever person will need to continue for River's benefit and comfort.River is a masterpiece in the making! He needs a forever person or family who will be willing to love him and help him continue to blossom.PAW places animals in the DC, MD, northern VA, and southern PA area only.

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