About this Dog
Hello! My name is Ricardo and I am a 4-year-old, 40 lb neutered male. I am already housetrained and crate-trained, though I do not need to be crated when left home alone. I will usually take a nap on the couch or play with my toys while you’re gone. Before coming to Echo Dogs, I was running with a feral colony and have therefore had a slow-going integration to the human world. I am extremely shy with people and will need a patient adopter willing to give me the time I need to warm up. I will accept affection from my foster mom though I don’t yet seek it. I would do best in a low traffic home with few visitors. Due to my anxieties, I cannot go to a home with children as they spook me. I absolutely thrive with other dogs and will require at least one confident canine companion in my home to help show me the ropes. I am gentle and playful with my canine friends and have even gently wrestled with little dogs. I have discovered the joy of toys and love to play with them! I don’t discriminate my favorites as I love stuffies, squeakies, antlers, benebones, or even simple food puzzles! I am amazing with cats and my feline foster sibling loves to rub against me or lay with me. Learning how to walk on a leash is a new concept to me, so I will require a securely fenced yard at my home. I am improving and join my foster mom to get the mail every day for practice! I have also been learning about car rides and, while I need help getting in, I will ride well. My recall has been coming along nicely at home. I am not yet ready to start working on other commands. I currently take daily Clomicalm medication to help me manage my anxieties and will need to continue for the foreseeable future. I am a sweet boy who is looking for a special, patient human willing to continue teaching me about the human world—could you be my family?

Transportation for the adopted dog IS available. Remember, we are an all-volunteer foster rescue organization - we DO NOT have a physical shelter to visit. Our minimum adoption donation is $350. All dogs are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations and micro-chipped. Puppies under 6 months old may not be spayed/neutered. This would be the responsibility of the adopter at their own expense. Proof of spay/neuter will be required!

Adopt Ricardo 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, Ricardo'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 Ricardo's current Dogecoin balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the Ricardo, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Ricardo'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 Ricardo was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Ricardo’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 Ricardo’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, Ricardo’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!
