About Aria’s Breed: Miniature Poodles are known for their intelligence, loyalty, and gentle nature. They’re often affectionate with their people and thrive in homes where they can be close to their humans. Aria’s mixed background gives her a wonderfully balanced temperament—she’s smart, loving, and easy to live with. Aria’s Story & Personality: Aria is a sweet, petite lady who’s looking for someone to love. At 7 years old and just 8 pounds, she fits perfectly into any lap and just wants to be near her people. She’s affectionate without being clingy, calm without being dull, and curious without being overly busy. She’s almost fully housebroken and is crate trained, but she does perfectly well left alone without one. Aria is leash trained and enjoys going for walks or poking around outside, but she doesn’t need a lot of activity—just your company and a comfy place to relax. She gets along well with other dogs and cats and has done beautifully with teenagers in her foster home. While she’d likely be fine with younger children, due to her tiny size, we recommend homes with older, respectful kids who understand how delicate she is. She’s just starting to enjoy toys and shows little glimpses of playfulness as she settles in. She’s also a quiet girl, though she may give a polite bark when someone passes by. All in all, Aria is a gentle soul who will make a wonderful addition to a calm, loving home. Aria’s Ideal Home: A calm household with someone who enjoys quiet companionship An adopter who’s home often or wants a sweet, small dog by their side A family with respectful kids or older children Great for apartments or smaller spaces – she doesn’t need a yard Another small, friendly pet would be fine, but not required Ready to Welcome a Gentle Little Lady into Your Life? Aria is the kind of companion who melts into your heart and makes herself right at home. She doesn’t ask for much—just your love, a warm spot to curl up in, and a little patience as she settles into her forever. If you’re looking for a quiet, loving, and loyal friend, Aria may be the perfect match. Comprehensive details are provided in the dog's description.

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