About this Dog
Nipsey is looking for someone with a big, patient heart to help her learn how to dog. Sheâs such a Nervous Nelly at the moment. Sheâs not super comfortable being around people, but weâre helping her practice. At the moment she prefers her space and keeping some distance from you. Nipseyâs nerves often have her coming across as rude when sheâs really just scared. She just appreciates lots of space. Even loose in the play yard â which is most shelter dogsâ happy place â her anxiety shows. She trots laps and maintains as much distance from you as she possibly can. She seems most comfortable in her kennel by herself. As treat motivated as she is, we think thatâs the ticket to her heart. Sheâll happily take treats gently from your hand through her kennel, but then she scampers off to eat them by herself. She has done well interacting with other dogs in shelter playgroups though, and she's also proven herself to be potty trained! With lots of time and patience in a previous foster home she warmed up well to the children, and even enjoyed them loving and petting on her. We know itâll take a special soul to help Nipsey trust people, but sheâs worth it!Nipsey busca a alguien con un corazón grande y paciente que la ayude a aprender a ser un perro. Ahora mismo está muy nerviosa. No se siente muy cómoda estando rodeada de gente, pero la estamos ayudando a practicar. Ahora mismo prefiere su espacio y mantener cierta distancia. Sus nervios a menudo la hacen parecer grosera cuando en realidad solo está asustada. Simplemente agradece tener mucho espacio. Incluso suelta en el patio, que es el lugar feliz de la mayorÃa de los perros de refugio, su ansiedad se nota. Trota alrededor de ti y mantiene la mayor distancia posible. Parece estar más cómoda sola en su caseta. Como le gustan las golosinas, creemos que eso es la clave para ganarse su corazón. Tomará golosinas de tu mano con mucho gusto a través de su caseta, pero luego corre a comérselas sola. Sin embargo, se ha desenvuelto bien interactuando con otros perros en los grupos de juego de refugios, ¡y también ha demostrado que sabe ir al baño! Tras pasar mucho tiempo y paciencia en un hogar de acogida anterior, se encariñó con los niños e incluso disfrutó de sus caricias y cariños. Sabemos que se necesita un alma especial para ayudar a Nipsey a confiar en la gente, ¡pero lo vale!

100% of NIPSEY's balance will be sent to whoever adopts NIPSEY.
Adopt NIPSEY and Receive NIPSEY'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, NIPSEY's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is NIPSEY's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the NIPSEY, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming NIPSEY'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 NIPSEY was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, NIPSEY’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the NIPSEY’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, NIPSEY’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!
