About this Dog
Meet PonyBoy 78 pounds of pure affection, wrapped in velvety fur and shaped like a house hippo. He’s not just a good boy—he’s the best boi. His heart? Made of snuggles and sunshine. His dream? A forever best friend to chase sticks with, nap beside, and gently remind: “It’s time to pet me again.” He’ll follow you from room to room, settle at your feet with a bone, or climb (ever so hopefully) into your lap— convinced he’s still lap-sized. One bark to let you know he’s got your back. Then it’s all tail wags and soft eyes for anyone who might be in the petting mood. (Spoiler: he assumes everyone is.) He’s potty trained, couch ready, and a big fan of blankets and binge-watching. Bed or sofa, he’s happy— especially if he gets to be the little spoon or your personal weighted blanket. PonyBoy is polite, knows his basics, and learns quickly when shown gentle guidance. He occasionally forgets how big he is around tiny humans, but his heart? Always tender. PonyBoy is ready— for long walks, snuggle naps, and a lifetime of love. PonyBoy is from a local impound. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.

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