My story

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

Introducing Kenny, the charming, playful guy with a heart full of love and a sense of humor that’s sure to brighten your day! Kenny might start off a little shy around new faces, but give him a moment, and he’ll quickly show you his true, affectionate side. Before you know it, you’ll have a best friend for life, ready to share all the fun you can handle.

Kenny's absolute favorite thing in the world is a good game of tug of war. He’ll run over to you with his favorite rope toy, tail wagging like crazy, and wait for you to play. But be warned—he’s a pro, and he’s always up for an epic tugging match that could last for hours! Whether it’s fetch or tug, Kenny is the ultimate playmate who never tires of the fun.

What really sets Kenny apart? Those signature eyebrows! They’re his secret weapon for melting hearts. He’s also a social butterfly, making friends wherever he goes. Kenny gets along wonderfully with other dogs and people alike, and he’s got a whole crew of pals at the shelter.

If you’re looking for a loyal, silly, and all-around loving companion who’ll keep you smiling every day, Kenny is the one you’ve been waiting for!

More about this shelter

The Animal Care League was founded in 1973 as the Village Humane Society to help homeless animals in the Oak Park community. After a few years of operations, the Humane Society realized the need for help extended beyond the Oak Park borders and changed its name to the Animal Care League to better communicate our purpose.

At the beginning, the ACL did not have a physical shelter to house animals. Instead, supporters cared for animals in their homes until a permanent home could be found. This personal touch was very nice, however, it greatly limited the number of animals that could be helped and made the adoption process very slow. In the late 1970’s, the Animal Care League rented its first shelter, relocating to a new building a few years later. For many years the shelter worked out of this small facility, but in 1998 we moved again to our current location. We have the capacity to house up to thirty-three dogs, more than 120 cats and many other little critters such as birds, rabbits, mice, snakes and even chickens.

From the very beginning, the ACL has had a policy of keeping adoptable animals until we could find them a home and this is still in practice today. This means that no matter how long it takes, we keep an adoptable animal with us until we find that right loving home. Even though the number of animals coming through our doors for help each year has increased by 100 percent in the last several years alone, we firmly believe in this policy and will continue to give every animal the best opportunity possible to find a new home. We have accomplished this by taking proactive approaches to animal care and adoption as well as preventative measures to help reduce the number of homeless animals in our communities.

The Animal Care League works very hard to keep our animals healthy, reduce the number and severity of behavior problems and to act proactively in finding new homes for our pets.
