About this Dog
Introducing Angel, a sweet and sensitive shepherd mix who is searching for a peaceful home where he can feel safe and loved. While he doesn’t require a fenced yard, he would appreciate having a quiet space outdoors to do his business. Angel is not the most confident pup, especially in new or overwhelming situations. His instinct is to retreat and find a safe spot when he feels scared. He thrives in the company of smaller dogs, offering a gentle tail wag to show he means no harm. While he may not engage in playful antics, he enjoys their presence and is perfectly content to be around them. A calm and patient environment is ideal for Angel, especially someone who is home often. He tends to bond better with women but can be a little nervous when meeting new people, sometimes expressing this with a soft growl. Understanding and patience are essential; he needs time to adjust, but once he feels secure, he will gently seek your affection, asking for pets and cuddles. As he warms up, Angel will share his whole heart with you. You’ll see him smile and gently jump up for hugs while you praise him for being a good boy. He loves to lean against you, soaking up all the love and pets you can give. Angel is potty and crate trained, enjoys his meals and treats, and loves being brushed to keep his coat looking its best. Due to his anxious nature, he is currently on medication, which he may need for life. He also has heartworm and will require monthly prevention as he undergoes the slow treatment method. Angel prefers a serene environment, making him a perfect companion for quiet walks or simply lounging next to you while you enjoy TV and snacks. He would do best in a home without children, as they can be overwhelming for him. If you’re a kind and patient person looking for a loyal companion who will fill your life with love, Angel is ready to be your best friend! Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter’s expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home. ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there***

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