About this Dog

Ginny is about 10 (based on condition of teeth). We took her temporarily in March 2019 because her first home caught fire and her elderly mom had severe burns and required a long hospital stay. Her mom and dad are now unable to take her back due to health issues and we cannot keep her. Ginny is about 5 lb overweight because her previous parents gave her too many treats. She rarely gets a treat with us (but she loves plain greek yogurt, unsweetened applesauce, and peanut butter) and we try to closely monitor her food intake. She only eats dry food and it needs to be small bites (for small dog breeds) due to the fact that she is missing several teeth. She is current on vaccinations (June 2019). Ginny loves the outdoors and needs a yard to roam. She doesn't wander too far and we don't usually have a need to leash her. However, she will chase cars. So, if she is in a busy area, a fenced yard is a must! (We are in a rural area which would work best for her. The further from the road the better.) She is very social and loves people! She is great with children and other dogs as well as cats! She likes to sleep in the bed but keeps us up at night, so it would be best not to start that. She wants to drink water and go potty once or twice at night and can't get in or out of bed by herself. She will potty in the house when you are gone. She tries to hit the puppy pad most of the time, but misses often. We put a diaper on her when we leave (a cloth diaper cover with a maxi pad type soaker). She rarely uses the diaper, but we continue it because otherwise she pees and poops on the floor. This is the worst thing about her. She is so sweet, loving, and funny.

Adopt Ginny 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, Ginny'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 Ginny receive the Dogecoin?


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