Lady is a gentle 10-year-old beagle with a heart full of love and a nose for finding the comfiest spot on the couch. She's the definition of a lap dog and would happily spend her golden years curled up beside you, soaking up all the love you can give.
Though she may be a little shy when meeting new people, once she warms up, she becomes your most loyal shadow. Lady isn’t much of a player – toys aren't really her thing – but she makes up for it with her quiet companionship (and the occasional chatty beagle conversation).
This housebroken sweetheart has impeccable manners indoors, according to her previous owner. She prefers a calm, quiet home where she can be the one and only dog (but she has been peacefully coexisting with cats in her foster home!). She’s earned the right to be the queen of her castle!
If you’re looking for a low-maintenance, loving companion to keep you company on the couch and make your days a little warmer, Lady might just be your perfect match.

More about this shelter
For over 60 years, the Animal Protective League has been the voice for animals in Springfield and Sangamon County. APL operates a limited admission animal shelter and a high-volume, low-cost spay/neuter clinic along with comprehensive animal-welfare programs. APL is a private, not-for-profit organization and operates primarily by donations.
APL's limited admission animal shelter prioritizes intake by sick, injured, abused and abandoned dogs and cats. APL strives to match animals with carefully screened, loving, permanent owners. All animals leave our shelter spayed or neutered, microchipped, and with all age appropriate vaccinations. Over 2000 deserving dogs and cats are placed in homes every year! APL also has an active group of foster families who provide interim homes until space is available at our shelter.
APL's Spay/neuter clinic performs over 12,000 spay/neuter surgeries every year. In addition to the public, we work with other animal shelters, animal control agencies and animal welfare groups within a 30-mile radius of Springfield. Our free transport system picks up animals from various locations and transports them to our facility for surgery and then returns the animals the following day. This allows many other organizations to have access to low-cost spay/neuter services for their own animals as well as animals in their communities. We currently work with 31 partners in 18 surrounding counties.
