About this Dog
Ballerina Now about 11½ months old, this stunning Australian Shepherd/Great Pyrenees mix has been through so much but continues to move forward with quiet resilience. She’s on the smaller side for her mix—likely due to early malnutrition—and probably won’t grow beyond 40 lbs. During her pre-surgery bloodwork, Ballerina tested positive for Lyme disease—an unfortunately common tick-borne illness. While it can cause joint pain and fatigue, it's very manageable with medication and care, and she’s already on a treatment plan. Currently in a foster home near Binghamton, NY, Ballerina is searching for a patient, nurturing foster home to help her continue building trust and confidence. She’s gentle, observant, and so deserving of a fresh start. Will you help her find safety and love? All of our animals are examined by a veterinarian, given age-appropriate vaccinations, de-wormed, microchipped, spayed or neutered, heart-worm tested, and treated if necessary. Vet references and a home/family visit are required, and an adoption fee applies. Transport options are available within our area of operation, including Pennsylvania, the tri-state area, and New England. Please note we do not adopt animals into Canada. Visit www.pmarinc.org for more information, and to fill out an application.

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