About this Dog
Hi, I’m Kiara! Yes, my name is fancy because, well, have you seen me? I came all the way from Arkansas to Minnesota because I heard this is where all the nice families live. I’m about 2 ½ years old, 40 pounds of love, and apparently a “Whippet mix” (which sounds like a milkshake flavor, if you ask me). Let’s address the scar on my face right away—it’s from when some not-so-nice humans who taped my mouth shut. But don’t worry, it doesn’t hurt anymore, and I like to think of it as my superhero badge. After all, I survived and still LOVE people. Take that, bad guys! Here’s what you should know about me: Lap Dog Wannabe: At 40 lbs, I have no concept of personal space. Your lap = my bed. Teen & Adult Approved: I love humans of all sizes (except maybe toddlers who want my toys…we’ll talk about that later). Cats: Sniffed one, got whacked, immediate respect earned. End of story. Dogs: Truthfully, they aren’t so bad to have around. They are mere peasants to me. I ignore them, but don’t get it twisted. My toys and my toys. I do not share. Stuffed Animals: Your stuffed toys? They’re toast. I’m a certified Fluff Removal Specialist. Countertops: I’m…curious. There’s just so much treasure up there! My foster mom says “off” a lot. I’m learning. Walks: I love them! Leashes, not so much. Harnesses help, and with a little practice, I’ll be strutting like a pro. Kennel Life: Big fan. It’s my dining room, bedroom, and “me time” cave. Car Rides: Windows down, ears flapping, living my best dog life. Potty Training: I’m close! Sometimes my signals are subtle—apparently humans need training too. What I really want is someone who will laugh at my quirks, work with me on my “sharing is caring” issue, and most importantly, let me shower them with love. I’ve got a heart the size of Minnesota, and I can’t wait to find my forever couch…uh, I mean family. So—how about it? Want to meet your new best friend, professional snuggler, and world’s best stuffed animal shredder? Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee: $475.00

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