About this Dog
Acorn – The Sweet Senior Explorer Acorn is a 10-year-old, 43-pound male Pit Bull Terrier who may have a little splash of gray in his face, but he’s full of heart. He’s the kind of dog who appreciates life’s simple pleasures: a leisurely walk, a good sniffari, and plenty of tasty snacks. Leash manners: He pulls a bit at times, but nothing hard to manage. Acorn enjoys slow, steady strolls where his curious nose leads the way, tail wagging gently as he explores. Gentle treat lover: Food is his biggest motivator. He takes treats softly from your palm and responds beautifully to them, making redirection easy. Soft and sensitive: Acorn may startle at touch, but with patience and a kind hand, he relaxes and shows his sweet, gentle side. Low-key lifestyle: While he’ll occasionally check out toys, Acorn isn’t looking for high-energy play. He’s more about sniffing, wandering, and being near his people—an ideal match for someone wanting a relaxed companion. Friendly companion: He checks in often on walks, comes when whistled, and even wags politely at passing dogs. Acorn would shine in a mellow, understanding home—whether alongside a well-matched dog friend or as the solo star soaking up love and comfort

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