About this Dog
Dear Santa:I'm overjoyed to share my triumphant journey with you. As a former stray in Miami, Florida, I was once at risk of euthanasia, but thanks to the unwavering dedication of a devoted group of animal advocates, I was rescued and am now flourishing with my foster family in Middle Tennessee. While my three fellow foster siblings have found their forever homes, I'm eagerly anticipating mine.My foster mother can attest to my remarkable transformation, as I've blossomed into a confident and well-mannered canine, overcoming my initial shyness. I've also mastered excellent potty and crate training skills, and I exhibit exemplary behavior on a leash. I cherish snuggling in my foster mommy's lap and snoozing away. She raves about my affectionate nose kisses and my talent for keeping her ears clean.Since I am sure I made the nice list this year, all I want is to be adopted by a loving family to wake up with on Christmas morning.Love,Dakota KeithDakota Keith is the sweetest little old man who was a stray in Miami. He likes to get in my lap and sleep while I watch TV. He is blind in one eye and may have limited vision in the other, with some hearing loss. We are still working on potty training but overall he does great.He does awesome in his kennel and gets along well with his 5 foster siblings. Dakota Keith gives the best nose kisses. A positive is he walks great on a leash. Speaking of kennel he knows the word bed and will go into it with no problem. A little funny about him when he is ready to come in from being outside he will bark and sounds like a bigger dog.He has a great personality and loves treats.Dakota Keith was so good at the vet's office today despite shaking from being nervous. He can see only shadows with the left eye and totally blind in the right. Not deaf but has a hearing impairment. His body is pretty beat up and has a lot of small lumps. Major issue is his mouth, some teeth are very loose, he has two that may fall out at any time and needs a good cleaning which is scheduled on September 25th. The old snip snip is on the back burner. He is absolutely adorable and a heart stealer. We went to Dairy Queen and he got to enjoy a pup cup. With the way Dakota Keith behaves it is evident he had been someone's indoor pet. Please send him positive vibes that he continues to flourish.Available dogs are met by pre-approved adopters ONLY after a match is made.The application is the first step.

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