nOkill Network

The nOkill Network is dedicated to promoting no-kill animal shelters, organizations, and rescue groups by helping people learn about and locate these organizations. The nOkill Network also strives to promote the no-kill model so that shelters that do not currently have a no-kill policy might take the initiative needed to gain the public, governmental, and financial support necessary to become a no-kill organization.Our website visitors are pet lovers that would be helpful in adopting and caring for pets in need, so we'd like to provide the adoptable pet listing on our site in order to match animals in need with families.

Meet Potato

This approx 2 yr old female was left at a property with 7 puppies. I have been feeding them all winter… someone has neutered this girl since she had the pups. I think the puppies are about 10 months old now. I have found homes for 3 of the pups. The man who left them told me that this dog was named POTATO by his 5 yr old daughter. Apparently, he did not had the wherewithal to take her and the pups when he left the property. They have survived a wicked winter and many stormy nights outside. I started feeding them in December, built a shelter for them and made sure they had food and water all winter. I live about 25 miles away and drive there every day to check on them. I have three dogs and cannot take another one in. The pups are like a pack now and although I can feed them, they are wary of me getting too close. BUT, Potato comes to me and loves to be touched, pet, and talked to. She is a sweet girl and I think has been house trained. She seems to know sit, come, no, etc. I have a couple of female Airedales at home who are pretty bonded to me and my third dog is one of the pups from this litter. I feel it would be a dog fight if I brought Potato home, as the three here would not be happy to share my time. I am 74 and a caregiver for my 87 yr old husband. It would be too much to have another dog. I think Potato is a really loving girl, who just wants to be cared for. I think she was hit by a car last year and has a hip injury ( she limps a little) but otherwise is in good health. She needs a bath and someone to love her. She is the only one I can catch. I will keep trying to get the pups to gain my trust. I just hate leaving Potato, she is at risk of getting hit again on the highway. All of the shelters I have called say they have no room for another dog. She is in Hot Springs county and apparently they have no animal rescue. I want to find her a good home but will continue to feed her and the pups until I do. They are near Social Hill, off Hwy 84 in Malvern. **** Breed: Shepard mix **** Pet Link: https://www.nokillnetwork.org/adoption/pet_detail.php?petid=2182622&flag=1
