About this Dog
Good afternoon,
My name is Stephen Caskie and I am writing to see if there is any possibility that you can assist me in finding a new home for our dog Zoe. Zoe (3.5 year-old Turkish Shepherd, rescue dog) has been living with our friend on a farm for 10 months, whilst we have been working overseas. She was with her step-brother, Russ, and another rescue greyhound. They are a happy pack. They roam free in the courtyard.
Zoe was found in a bin in Baku, Azerbaijan. We adopted her at 2 months old. Prior to our return to Scotland on June 11th, we were told that Zoe had bitten someone at the farm. Nobody has reported her and the bite did not break the skin or clothing. Since we have been back together there has been no biting. With us, she is collared, walked 5 times a day and never given free roam. Our friend on the farm is an older lady who has many responsibilities. She has been rescuing dogs for 45 years. We gave her the dog's muzzles when we left them in July 2022 but she has not used them. She desperately wants to keep caring for Zoe but we think it is just too much to ask. We have contacted our vet and they recommended a dog behaviourist meeting. This occurred on Monday 10th July. It is a very positive report (available if required).
We are desperate for Zoe to find a good home. She is loving, great company, loves walking and needs control. Our situation is made more urgent as we leave the country at the end of July to return to work. If we have not found a home for Zoe by then, our only alternative is to have her put down.
We have a car and can travel anywhere in the UK with Zoe.
We have contacted a number of shelters but without success and, given that we have just over a week to find a home, we are offering a donation of 4000 GBP to anyone who can help us, as this is infinitely more preferable to having her euthanised. If you are able to help, or know an organisation that can, please let us know. We have 1 week left before I have to return to work overseas.
Many thanks.

Adopt Zoe and Receive Zoe'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, Zoe's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0 is Zoe's current balance
How will Zoe receive the contribution?
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Zoe, thank you for providing a home and a loving family! Please begin the process of claiming Zoe'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 Zoe was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Zoe’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
What happens to unclaimed funds?
We want the Zoe’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, Zoe’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!
