About this Dog
He is loyal and full of energy. He graduated from puppy school and listens to basic commands. He would be best as a single pet home. He is in a crate during the day because he food steals and eats tissues from the trash if he can find them. He is free roaming when we come home until bedtime and sleeps in a dog bed in the bedroom. He only has urine accidents when he overly excited no bowel accidents. He follows a routine and gets up at 6am goes outside eats goes back out side runs and plays. In the evening he eats goes out and then paces and lays down. He loves to lick the water from the sink and crumbs from the counter. The only problem is he now has heightened his dominance with our older dog and they no longer can be trusted to be alone together.

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

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