Moodonna is an energetic happy dog, who has learned to trust that people are her friends in the time she has been with us. She knows how to sit, will stay, and is good on a leash after her initial excitement of being out and ready to go is abated. She has been exploring new areas around town to help build confidence in herself and the world. When meeting new people it is best to let her approach because her world has been small. She is easily bought with praise and a treat. She is good with vetting and toenail trims, likes to play tug, and knows when to drop, never getting your fingers by mistake. Moo is happy to lay or sit quietly beside you for a little downtime. She enjoys walking around the shelter and visiting her friends while they work. She enjoys belly rubs too. Moo is NOT a fan of cats, so her future home has to be feline-free. Moo has been with us a while so she will need a home that will be patient in letting her adjust to new surroundings, sounds, and expectations. A home that will let her adjust before exposing her to a lot of new people and new experiences until she settles. Moo weighs 48.2 pounds

TAPS-Tazewell Animal Protective Society was founded in 1958 in Pekin Illinois in a building donated by the City of Pekin on River Road. In 1979, rapidly rising river water forced the evacuation of the animals. Once again, the City of Pekin stepped in and donated a building for the animals. Several moves later, and with the help and generosity of many volunteers and community members, TAPS now has a new home at 100 TAPS Lane. Last year we celebrated 50 year of caring for the homeless animals of Central Illinois.
