My story

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

Meet Stretch!!
Bassett Hound Mix
Approx. 8 months old
Approx. 50 lbs.

Stretch is the most happy go lucky boy! He arrived to rescue from TN and he’s happy to have a new start on life. This very unique little guy has a special look and personality all his own. Look at that smile!

Stretch can be a little shy at first, but he warms up to everyone very quickly. He loves to play ball and hang around with the other dog at his foster home. He follows his foster mom around the house and the yard, just to see what she’s up to, he loves to be with his human.

Stretch is housebroken and crate trained, though he doesn’t need it as he stays out for extended periods of time and is very well behaved.

Stretch is not fond of the vacuum cleaner or thunderstorms, but once he realizes that he is safe with his new forever family, we’re sure that will be of comfort to him. Stretch is an all around awesome dog! Any family will be lucky to call him theirs!

Our standard adoption fee is $295 cash or check and $300 credit card ($5 processing fee). It includes spay/neuter when age appropriate at our participating vets, age appropriate core vaccinations, fecal testing, deworming, flea and tick preventative,1st vet visit at one of our participating vets, and micro-chipping.


We must have an application, conduct a phone interview, and meet your entire family to approve an adoption. Please email safehavendogsIL@yahoo.com for an application or additional details.

Please note that the breeds and sizes posted in this biography are educated best guesses and are not guaranteed.

Please consider becoming a foster home while you search for your new best friend. We need foster homes - pounds are overflowing with puppies and adult dogs that are at-risk and need help. We can only rescue as many as we have foster home commitments. Fostering is a rewarding experience for your family.
