About this Dog
OrlaTag No: 7025Registered Name: Toras BogBreed: GreyhoundDate of Birth: April 2, 2020Color: BrindleCat Trainable: NoDog Friendly: See commentsKid Friendly: NoWeight: Approx. 60 poundsLocation: Woodinville, WA (Kennel)Comments: Orla is a lovely Irish greyhound who will make a wonderful pet for the right person or family. Blessed with a very pretty face with big brown eyes and a thick, soft, brindle-patterned coat, Orla is a 60 pound head-turner. Orla is sweet with people, and likes petting and scritches, but she isn’t really the cuddly type. She can be a bit standoffish at first when she meets someone new, but with a little time she warms right up and loves both to romp and lounge around with her human friends. She wants to please her people, takes treats gently, and loves to play.We don’t know much about Orla’s life back in Ireland before she came to GPI, besides the fact she broke her leg at some point. This injury appears to have healed very well and does not seem to have had any lasting effect.She is good on leashed walks and doesn’t show on-leash reactivity to other large dogs. Orla would make a great partner for brisk walks as she isn’t one to dawdle or sniff everything on walks - this girl likes to walk fast, lead the way, and keep an eye out for interesting sights! She does well in the car, and loves to look out the car window. She will enter a crate in exchange for a treat.Orla would thrive as an only pet in a home with a securely fenced yard in which she could amuse herself (and you!) with her impressive zoomie skills and her funny, playful nature. She seems more or less indifferent to larger dogs and uninterested in making canine friends. Orla has a strong prey drive meaning she cannot be placed in a home with smaller animals such as cats and little dogs. Orla is just not suited for life in a densely populated situation such as an apartment/condo/townhome, nor in a busy urban area where she would encounter smaller animals which trigger her prey drive. Even on leash she is not safe in close proximity to little animals. Orla’s prey drive also manifests in a rather intense interest in stuffed toys, especially the squeaky ones. She loves stuffies so much that she zealously guards and eventually destroys them. Orla thinks it’s fun to snatch things which remind her of toys, so her adopters must be willing to put away or block tempting items (e.g., shoes, coats, purses, toys, pillows) while she learns what is and isn't hers.The good news is GPI’s staff and volunteers are now able to distract Orla during a toy guarding event easily by trading toys for treats or other toys. Orla’s trainers are now working to teach her to disengage from toys without bribing her with treats or other toys. This bribe-free technique does take some patience and may well put some wear and tear on the toy in question! Orla’s new family will need to understand and be willing to work on her issues with toys. Because of her prey drive and toy guarding Orla should live in an adults-only home. Sponsored by Madison Fairweather Orla is looking for her very own sponsor. Interested?

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