About this Dog
** Gumby’s Story – A Promise of Love & Safety ** There are some stories that break your heart before they even begin. Gumby’s is one of them. At just **six months old**, he should be full of boundless puppy energy, chasing toys and playing without a care in the world. Instead, he weighs barely **15 pounds**—his tiny, frail body a haunting reminder of what he’s endured. We don’t know exactly what his past looked like, but we know it wasn’t kind. Hunger, fear, neglect—he’s felt it all. But **here’s what we do know**: **Gumby’s past no longer defines him.** From this moment forward, we promise him **consistent meals, a warm bed, a soft blanket, and the safety and love he’s always deserved.** He’s not available for adoption just yet. First, he needs to gain weight, heal, and truly know what it feels like to **be cherished**. What we **do** need right now is **help**—funds for his food, supplements, medical care, and a few small comforts, like a special blanket and a cozy new bed. Toys? He doesn’t quite understand them yet. But **love?** Somehow, despite everything, he understands **that** perfectly. When you hold him, he **melts into you**, pressing his fragile body as close as he can—like he’s finally found what he’s been searching for all along. **Gumby, you are safe now.** If you’d like to help us keep this promise to him, please consider donating. Every bit of support means **a future full of love, not sadness.**

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