About this Dog

Lincoln is a 7 year old, 25 lb dog that we adopted from the humane society 6 years ago. Physically he is completely healthy and has never had any major medical problems. Mentally he has some behavior challenges which is why we are forced to rehome him. He has fear-anxiety, which causes him to be aggressive towards strangers, especially in our home. Even people that he has met before if they aren't regular visitors he will display aggressive behavior towards them (barking, and running towards them) but has never bitten them. We were able to cope with that challenge but a couple of weeks ago he bit our 1-year-old son and that was the final straw as far keeping him in our home. Lincoln wasn't aggressive with our son at first but once he was able to walk around Lincoln got very defensive. The ideal home for Lincoln would be a single or couple who does not have young children around (he's never had problems with older children). Also, someone who likes to get exercise as Lincoln has a lot of energy and loves trips to the dog park. Other dogs are generally fine, although he isn't crazy about them coming to our house, but when we go to other dog's homes he is okay. People who don't have frequent guests would also be ideal, although he does fine in his crate. He's a very smart dog who is good with commands: Go to your bed, sit, stay, lay down, drop it, walk (on leashes), and he learned a lot of those quickly so I'm confident he could learn new ones if the owner wished. He's a very loving dog he just has behavioral issues that are solvable with an owner who is willing to put in the energy. Unfortunately, we are not able to do that.

Adopt Lincoln 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, Lincoln'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).

How will Lincoln receive the Dogecoin?


The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the Lincoln, thank you for providing a home and a loving family! Please begin the process of claiming Lincoln'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 Lincoln was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Lincoln’s Dogecoin balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.




What is Dogecoin?


"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.




What happens to unclaimed funds?


We want the Lincoln’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, Lincoln’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!
