About this Dog
Meet Osito – Your Future Snuggle Buddy! Osito may have three legs, but he has enough love for five hearts. He was found as a stray in Mexico with a machete injury that required the amputation of a front limb. Despite his difficult past, Osito embodies joy, loyalty, and an abundance of cuddles. He loves human companionship and gets along well with other dogs. His activity level is low to medium — he enjoys lounging, short strolls, and especially splashing in water! Osito’s temperament is loving, gentle, obedient, and just a touch dramatic (in the most endearing way). He’s a happy, goofy, and gentle spirit, filled with immense love to give.If you’re looking for a calm, snuggly companion with an inspiring story and a heart of gold, Osito is your guy.

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