About this Dog
Meet Bear, an 18-month old German Shepherd who loves running on the farm, competing with our senior lab on who can bark the loudest at the UPS delivery truck, and never passes up a chance to steal a snack. He does not like cats or strangers and will go into guard dog mode when new people are in his domain. Bear is a rescue from Animal Control and from what little they’d tell me, he washed out of the training academy at 9 months old and was offered for adoption. Bear loves our family very much…he is fiercely protective and loyal, but given his territorial nature, and the constant stream of guests we have and pedestrian traffic on our street, this is not the right environment for him and he needs a forever home where he can run and protect his human flock. He absolutely loves when we take him to our family farm and will chase a frisbee or ball for hours. He is relatively well obedience trained, praise motivated, and is house-trained. He was just not meant for city life and lots of people, especially with us being close to a school and in an area with lots of young kids. If he were an old man he’d be the one grumbling and waving his cane to tell you get off his lawn. If you’re looking for a loyal, alert, very capable guard dog in a home with no cats and can give this guy the attention and nurturing he needs, send us a message!!

Adopt Bear and Receive Dogecoin
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, Bear's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised. Dogecoin is digital currency that can be exchanged for cash, traded, or held as an investment (see the "What is Dogecoin" section below).
17 DOGE is Bear's current Dogecoin balance
17 DOGE
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the Bear, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Bear's Dogecoin 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 Dogecoin by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. 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 Bear was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Bear’s Dogecoin balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
"The fun and friendly internet currency."
Dogecoin sets itself apart from other digital currencies with an amazing, vibrant community made up of friendly folks just like you. Dogecoin is a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency that enables you to easily send money online.
Learn more about it on youtube or at dogecoin.com.
We want the Bear’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, Bear’s balance will remain in our general Dogecoin 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!
