About this Dog
Ruff start? Yes. Ruff round the edges? Sure. Hidden gem ready to be discovered? 100%. Pirata is a member of Eleventh Hour Rescue’s Diamond in the Ruff Program: a sweet, playful dog who needs a little polishing, but we know his brilliance will shine through with patience, love, a little training, and a home of his own. In return for your willingness to see Pirata's potential and change his story, and thanks to a private donor, PIRATA'S ADOPTION FEE HAS BEEN FULLY SPONSORED! All you need to provide is the love and patience to help him sparkle. PIRATA'S STORY: Pirata is a 1-year old pup weighing about 50 lbs. His name is Spanish for pirate. Now, as far as we know, Pirata doesn’t have any nautical expertise, but he does have the adventurous spirit of a pirate. Wanna take a ride? Pirata is up for it! Wanna go for a walk? Count him in! Wanna good snuggle? Pirata is your boy! Sadly, Pirata and his brother were dumped by the backyard breeder who created them. Ever since, this sweet boy has been in search of love and commitment. Is he a lot? Sometimes, but in the way your little brother is a lot. Well-meaning and energetic, he just wants to tag along and play. But we dare you not to fall in love with this sweet, silly boy who adores everyone he meets! He's also very smart! Pirata knows several commands like "sit," "touch," "down," and "wait," impressing everyone with his quick learning abilities. Pirata is both house trained and crate trained. He enjoys other dogs and plays nicely but may be best suited as an only dog-child in a home. Pirata has spent much of his young life in our kennel. While we shower him with as much attention and love as we can, we know this is not the place for a vibrant young dog in the prime of his life. Pirata needs a real home and all that comes with it. He needs you. We could not love this boy more and we know you will too. Please give this smart, sweet, goofy guy the opportunity for his best life! Pirata is microchipped, neutered, and up-to-date on immunizations. His adoption fee of $415 has been sponsored by a private donor! Apply to adopt PIRATA NJ at www.ehrdogs.org—He can’t wait to meet you!

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