About this Dog
Age: 2 yrs Sex: neutered male Estimated Breed: Australian Shepherd cross Weight: 38 lbs Good with Dogs: yes Good With Cats: yes Good with Children: yes Special/Medical Needs: no Energy Level: medium Adoption Fee: $650 Foster Home Location: Trail BC Gizmo's charm is his incredibly short legs but his incredible determination to figure out stairs has been exciting to watch. He took several days to feel at home and spend time out of his house. He needed more than a small amount of encouragement those first few days. He is timid and unsure of anything strange, but thinks the cats are for his entertainment and playtime. He takes a while to warm up to strangers, but soft encouragement and rubs under his chin go a long way. He is best in a harness because even though he is small, he is mighty and I think should he be startled and want to run badly enough that there is only a really tight collar that would hold him. Therefore for his safety, we have been using a harness. He has the timid temperament of the herding breeds along with the stubbornness, but he loves to get praise and his favorite snack. In one 45 minute hike, we had heel right at my left leg down pat. Gizmo has learned fetch and seems to love to do anything that will bring praise or belly rubs. Gizmo is a quiet boy, has not barked once yet while he has been here with us. Has whined a couple of times when the cat did not cooperate with his plans. He seems to have housetraining down pretty well with only a couple of accidents which seemed to be more of dominance than accident. Come is not in Gizmos vocabulary yet, but he is trying very hard to learn. He needs to go outside currently with a training leash on him so he can be brought back inside when time. Like a good herder, he gets focused, sometimes on his own fear and does not hear anything you are saying to calmly get him to come in. I think Gizmo would come out of his shell quickly if brought into a home with another well behaved dog. He is super sweet and lovely temperament.

Adopt Gizmo 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, Gizmo'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).
0.0 DOGE is Gizmo's current Dogecoin balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the Gizmo, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Gizmo'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 Gizmo was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Gizmo’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.

We want the Gizmo’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, Gizmo’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!
