About this Dog
Animal Proflie: Petra is an estimated 4-to-5-year-old 70 lb (but fit!) spayed female German Shepherd who is sadly in need of a new home, due to no fault of her own. This wonderful girl is the Trifecta -- good with dogs, cats, and kids. She has lived happily with her family until her older owner got Long Covid and then an unexpected cancer diagnosis, which left them feeling like they couldn't give her the attention and exercise she needed. Upon evaluation, Petra was social and friendly meeting strangers including children, and has positive interactions and experience with kids as young as five. She is friendly and non-reactive with other dogs. She is playful with cats -- not aggressive -- and would love to groom them, but would be overwhelming for a cat that was not dog savvy. She does pull on leash if allowed and will require a confident handler. She is house-trained and crate-trained though she is non-destructive outside of the crate. She currently doesn't get much exercise and would probably enjoy more. She has no known health issues, no food intolerances or known allergies, and no sign of any orthopedic issues. This girl is truly a gem and we are so looking forward to finding her a loving home for the rest of her days. Foster Update: Petra is settling in well and is very sweet! She is high-energy so will be best with adopters who are active and have time to tire her out. She will need continued work on her leash manners as she does pull quite a bit on leash. She is generally calm in her crate and is happy to snuggle up with her people. She enjoys playing with the other dogs at her foster's and may do best with another dog in her forever home. Since settling into her foster home Petra has demonstrated some territorial behaviors and general nervousness with meeting new people. We believe she will do best in a Shepherd-savvy home. Petra is such a sweet girl who would love a home with an active family! Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $550.:Petra is spayed, up to date with core vaccinations per AVMA standards, microchipped, and has a recent visit with a veterinarian .

Apply Online: www.doggoneseattle.org/adoption-application Animal History: Petra was rescued from Visalia Animal Shelter in 2021 by K9R&R and adopted to an older couple in Washington. She has lived with them for the last two years but now due to medical reasons can no longer provide the level of care they desire, and K9R&R cannot take her back. So she is with Dog Gone Seattle in foster care and will be available for adoption to the greater Seattle area.

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