My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Everyone around here says I was perfectly named- because I'm super sweet and have the most lovely big brown eyes! I like to climb up and put my paws on your chest so I can lick & nibble the tip of your nose. Sometimes I nibble too hard, though, so my trainer says I need to go to puppy class to learn to be gentle even when I'm excited! My foster mom says I love to run & play, I'm still working on potty training, and I'm a typical puppy who likes to chew on everything! Lots of nylabones and toys for me , please :)

If you have questions about our dogs or adoption process, the quickest way to get more information is to call our front desk at 630-355-3399. You can also visit us online at www.adoptpetshelter.org and look under the Adoptions menu or email our adoption counselors at dogquestions@adoptpetshelter.org

The first step of the process is to stop by our shelter anytime during adoption hours to meet the animals and talk with an adoption counselor to find the pet who’s the right fit for your family. After selecting an animal to adopt, the adoption counselor can place the pet “on hold” for you for a couple of days while we process your application; we’ll talk to your references, have our medical team review the pet’s file to make sure they’ve had all their vaccines & have been microchipped, and tie up any loose ends to get the animal ready to go home. After you’ve been approved, we’ll call to schedule a time for you to pick up your new pet!

(If you currently have a dog, we would ask that you please leave them at home during your initial visit. Once you've picked out an animal and placed a hold, the adoption counselor will help you schedule an appointment to come back with your dog for an introduction at a later time).

Our shelter is located at 420 Industrial Drive in Naperville, IL, and our adoption hours are:

Monday & Wednesday: Closed
Tuesday 6:00 – 8:00 pm
Thursday 12:00 – 8:00 pm
Friday 12:00 – 5:00 pm
Saturday and Sunday 12:00 – 3:00 pm

Thank you!
