About this Dog
Bingo has been adopted and returned four times with no adoption lasting longer than three weeks. He has special behavior needs but has no aggression or bite history. Please read his profile carefully as Bingo is still waiting on his angel. No apartments will be considered. Animal Profile: Bingo is a young male blue Doberman who was picked up as a stray in Bakersfield and taken to the overcrowded shelter where he was euthanasia listed for space. The shelter estimated his age as two based on a quick exam, but in foster care upon arrival we determined he was less than one year old based on his teeth and continued growth in foster care. At the shelter, he was pretty shy and shut down, which is typical for the breed, but still friendly to people and dogs. He joined us on 11/27/22 and is a long-stay in the rescue due to his special needs. Foster Update: Bingo is a young and active boy; he loves to play with other dogs and is friendly with all people, including small children. He has lived with small children for over a year and is sweet and affectionate. He is currently being fostered with other dogs and young kids and gets along well with everyone. Bingo is inclined to some bratty behavior toward other dogs around resources in a new environment. Once he understands his pack order (and with human communication) he settles in well and can share his space and toys. He can take treats around other dogs but does eat in his crate to help with ongoing crate training. Bingo has no issues resource guarding with people; you can remove objects from his mouth without issue if needed in a situation such as he grabs a piece of food he is not supposed to have. He has been to doggy daycare playgroups with large groups of dogs of all sizes and done well with everyone. Bingo is potty trained, and walks well on leash with a confident handler. This young and active boy is so very handsome and has a typical Doberman velcro personality. He also loves his sweater and curling up into little spaces. Bingo has not lived with cats and did not test well with cats so will need a feline free home. Bingo is also very vocal and unsettled in the crate without a training collar; he needs a super crate (provided with adoption). He may do better in a kennel run but that wouldn't be an option in inclement weather. He would not be suitable in an apartment or space with shared walls. Adopter Profile: Real talk, Bingo has been adopted and returned 4x, two of the adopters had him less than 72 hours. He has spent most of the last 20 months in the Director's house with 6 dogs and three kids under 4. He's a nice dog but he's not an easy dog. With that said, do you have the patience of a Saint? Better yet, are you a long lost relative of the actual Mother Theresa? Alternatively, are you deaf? If so you could be an ideal fit for Bingo. Problem #1) Bingo has major FOMO. He will let you know by barking his head off. He is e-collar trained but many folks aren't into using a bark collar (unless you like to get sleep or not listen to barking all day). Bingo is fine with a bark collar on, but if you don't put it on or forget to charge it, he will quickly remind you the second you don't include him in something he thinks he should be included in. He may eventually be OK to be left outside the crate, but one of his three adoption returns stated that when left alone he ate the carpet. He doesn't really have separation anxiety because he's actually very good in the crate when he knows it's non-optional. It's the options, for him, that are troubling. Problem #2) Also, another conundrum: Bingo LOVES to play with other dogs and is actually very social. But he's a bit of a punk and will posture over toys and even thresholds (doorways). He would benefit (for his own psyche) from a pack, but is a lot to manage. Luckily he has easy tells; if you know dogs you can see when he starts being a stinker and quickly interrupt it. He's never caused harm to another dog. But he's not a Kumbaya dog. His best match will be a very confident male or female of any size. Second best match would be a super beta dog. Problem #3) Finally, Bingo loves attention and to snuggle and all the Doberman things. But the more you do of this the worse problems 1 and 2 get. So, there's that. His best attribute? He has zero human aggression. Even when wrestling him like a bear for a bath (which he hates), he has never offered to bite. So at least he has that going for him. We know his unicorn is out there. * fingers crossed * Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $300 which includes spay/neuter (neutered Dec 2022), core vaccinations per AVMA standards, heartworm test if applicable, microchip with registration, and health certificate.

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