If interested, please put SENIOR after your name on the adoption application. Ambrose is ready for his forever Foster Home Feedback ** Not Apartment Friendly ** Older, Considerate Children 7/2/25 Temporary Care Feedback: I had the pleasure of watching Ambrose for a week and he was the sweetest boy! It took him a bit to trust me, and he definitely likes his safe spots, but he is a total cuddle bug. He took over my couch then took over my bed. He paid zero attention to my nosy cats and did very well meeting new people (both men and women). I left Ambrose to be a couch potato while I was at work all day with no issues. I had to force him to go outside (it’s a big, scary world out there!) but he didn’t have accidents inside even when he was alone for a very long day. Ambrose was a perfect gentleman the day he came to work with me. Not a peep! He was also a wonderful passenger prince in the car. We all completely fell in love with him! If you’re looking for a big, sweet couch potato who is completely chill and who loves belly rubs and kisses, Ambrose is your guy 6/9/25 Foster Feedback: Ambrose is a gentle, calm senior dog who only wants a comfortable couch to lay on for his time away from me. He’s dog and cat friendly, and does well free-roaming inside the house—he is not kennel trained. While he's potty trained, he may have the occasional accident, especially if left with too much water while you're away. Limiting his water during those times has really helped. He would do best in a female-only home (no apartments, please). 6/4/25 Foster Feedback: Ambrose is looking for a female-only home while he continues to work through his reactivity and fear-based aggression toward men. His foster family is helping him build confidence and feel safe around men. So for right now, it will be safer for Ambrose to be in a no male household. If you're a woman looking to give a loving pup a second chance, he might be your perfect match. With time, love, and continued support, Ambrose has so much potential to become your most loyal companion. 5/18/25 Foster Feedback: This sweet boy is really starting to come out of his shell! I've noticed he gains a lot of confidence when he has another dog around — he follows their lead, especially when it comes to going potty outside, which has helped reduce indoor accidents. Speaking of accidents, Ambrose is doing much better while I’m away. Limiting his water intake during those times has made a big difference in helping him with not having inside accidents. He’s also starting to show more interest in toys, which is a great sign that he’s feeling more comfortable. Ambrose is still a bit nervous outside the safety of the yard, but we’re working on slowly building his confidence in new environments. Because he tends to bark at small sounds, apartment living likely isn’t the best fit for him — a quieter home with some space would be ideal. Overall, he’s making steady progress and will thrive with a patient adopter who can continue helping him gain trust and confidence. 4/14/25 Foster Feedback: If you are looking for a couch potato, look no further! Ambrose is dog friendly, cat friendly, and tolerable with kids. Living with small kids (5 and under) makes him nervous with their fast movements. However, if they come for a short visit, he is very good with them. He does well with other dogs but will let them know when they are becoming too much. Ambrose can show some food guarding (barks and growls when a dog comes close to a food dish), so feeding the dogs separately is ideal. Ambrose is potty trained, but can be very stubborn when going outside. Therefore, he does have an occasional accident mainly when I’m at work. The world outside my property is scary for Ambrose, so we are working on building up his confidence while on the leash. He isn’t crate trained yet, but does well free roaming. Ambrose mainly sleeps on the couch or in his spot in my room. Ambrose has been the best house guest while he’s been with me. He loves belly rubs and having his butt scratched. He has such a kind personality and permanent puppy eyes, that are to die for. Ambrose will make you fall in love with him!

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