Story
Uno is a 1-year-old Heeler mix who weighs 33 pounds and is basically a bundle of happy, goofy energy. He’s the kind of dog who will happily follow his person around, find a toy to carry, settle in for some serious chewing, and then curl up in bed when the day is done. Uno is friendly, outgoing, adaptable, and incredibly loyal. He loves his people and wants to be right where they are. He’s also a big fan of playtime, especially fetch and playing with other dogs. His 80-pound canine foster brother is one of his favorite playmates, and the two of them can wear each other out before settling down for a nap together. Having another playful dog in his forever home would be a huge bonus for Uno, especially because having a canine friend seems to help him feel more comfortable when his people leave. This boy does have plenty of puppy energy left in him. He jumps up, sometimes nibbles when he gets excited, and thinks shoes are perfectly acceptable chew toys, so a home with older kids or teenagers would be the best fit. He’ll need plenty of appropriate things to chew and people who are ready to keep those tempting shoes safely out of reach. Uno is house trained, although he can occasionally have an accident while adjusting to a new routine. He’s accustomed to using a doggie door and currently has free run of the house rather than being crated. A fenced yard would be ideal for Uno because he loves to run, play, and burn off his puppy energy. That said, what matters most is finding him a home that will give him plenty of opportunities for exercise, play, and enrichment. Uno does well with dogs and he’s been friendly with everyone he's met. He’s okay with cats, although he’s more curious about them than respectful of their personal space. He may chase or bark at them because he thinks they want to play, so a dog-savvy cat who won’t mind his enthusiasm would be the better match. And then there’s Uno’s special talent: being an absolute goofball with a heart of gold. He’s playful, affectionate, silly, and happiest when he’s part of the action. If you’re looking for a fun-loving companion with a big personality in a portable package, Uno might be your guy. His minimum adoption fee is $300 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.
