About this Dog
Meet Atlas the Brave — First of His Name, Master of Mischief, and Seeker of Snacks(Now accepting owl post for adoption inquiries.)Straight from the wizarding world and into your Muggle home, Atlas may have been the runt of his litter, but like a certain boy who lived under the stairs, he’s never let that slow him down. At just 13 weeks old, this clever little Gryffinpup is already strutting through life like he’s got a Time-Turner tucked behind each floppy ear.Don’t let his sweet face fool you—Atlas is a magical force to be reckoned with. First of his siblings to conquer the enchanted art of “sit,” this wizard-in-training now commands a growing list of spells: Sitius, Stayiarmus, Laydownia, Touchicus, Pawtrificus Totalus, and Spinorama! All learned faster than you can say “Bertie Bott’s Every Flavour Beans.”His name suits him—like the ancient titan who held the heavens, this pup carries the courage of ten dogs. A natural-born explorer, Atlas bounds toward new adventures with the same boldness Harry showed flying a broomstick for the first time. Rolling toys? Consider them his golden snitch. Playtime growls? Think baby Simba meets miniature werewolf. He has energy to spare, and a fenced yard would be as welcome as a Quidditch pitch at Hogwarts.Now for his origin story—the stuff of legend. Born to a stray mum who tried to care for her babies while being too underweight herself, Atlas carries a few scars from those early battles. But here’s the twist: those scars are his superpower. Just like a lightning bolt on a certain forehead, they mark him as a survivor, a chosen one, and a reminder that even the tiniest among us can rise as heroes.Potty training? Practically mastered—he’s 99% there (yes, even without the help of a self-cleaning chamber pot). Crate trained and quickly learning what’s chewable and what belongs to the Ministry of Forbidden Nibbles.Atlas is exceptionally dog-friendly—always the first to greet new four-legged classmates with tail wags and cheerful barks. He’d love a fellow canine companion in his forever common room, though it’s not a requirement. While he may need gentle redirection with little witches and wizards (puppy teeth can be as sharp as a Basilisk’s glare), he’s quick to learn and eager to please.If you’re looking for a loyal companion to accompany you on your next great adventure—be it a walk through the Forbidden Forest (or, you know, the neighborhood park)—look no further.Atlas the Brave is ready to choose his wizard. Could it be you?If you are interested in Atlas, fill out an application at this link to get the ball rolling - https://pethavenmn.org/adopt/adoptable-dogs/dog-adoption-application/The adoption fee is $550.

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