Story
Angelo  has heart of gold and will bring his own brand of amore to your house, so get ready to meet this boy - he’s a charmer! Full of kisses and hugs, he’s house-trained (never had an accident at his foster home) and he sleeps soundly in a crate. He loves to run and get the zoomies outside, and as a herding-type breed, would benefit from an active household, preferably with a fenced yard so he can unleash some of that energy.   And speaking of leashes, he’s becoming a good walking companion who can, however, be distracted by the local rabbits. He prefers to be at your side and play with toys during the day, but because of his youthful exuberance, probably shouldn't be left alone uncrated just yet.   But we've seen just what a smart fellow he is, so he’s sure to be a quick study with some training.  Angelo  is already responding to his name, learned sit in just one day (with yummy incentives), and is on his way to learning to shake your hand! He wants to be friends with all the dogs (and people), and has interacted well with some neighborhood children, but doesn’t live with any presently.  Angelo  is a sturdy boy who forgets his size sometimes, so he likely is best suited with children over 12, or a family who understands he does see you as his “herd.” Come meet loyal, sweet  Angelo  who will watch for your out the window – his soft fur will make you want to cuddle up, and he’ll be your best friend!   His minimum adoption fee is $295 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. For information about this dog's breed(s), visit: http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/abc.htm To fill out our adoption application, go to: http://fs16.formsite.com/WishBoneCanineRescue/adoptionapplication/index.html Wish Bone Canine Rescue  1303 Morrissey Drive Bloomington, IL 61701 www.wishbonecaninerescue.org           Since its our desire that you have a pet you can enjoy a lifetime of love with you, we take special measures to ensure that the pet is the best match for you and your family.  We require that you complete our online www.wishbonecaninerescue.org (Please give us 24 hours to verify your information). If you have any other questions, you can reach us by email (preferred) at wbcrshelter@gmail.com.  Thank you.May 5, 2024, 9:35 pm

Story
Overall a very sweet and affectionate dog about 6 years old that we rescued 5 years ago. Does well with her housemate king charles spaniel dog and our two young children. Does well in doggy daycare too. Loves to run and especially chase things being a border collie. Loves to give hugs on command with her head on your shoulder. Overall healthy. Has has had previous bladder stones but where removed. Up to date on all shots. Should have lots of room to run and a secure fenced backyard. Has chased other dogs and slipped under a fence too so a secure area is needed.

Story
Thank you for your interest in adopting Rookie. he is a very affectionate, loyal, and smart animal. He would be an excellent companion for anyone. We are sad to re-home him, but he and our older male dog do not get along. Rookie must be adopted by a family with no other animals. An experienced adopter is preferred. Aside from this one shortfall, he is a perfect companion. He is great with our two young daughters, listens to commands, will stay by your side, and loves to snuggle. He is tri-paw'd, meaning he only has three legs, but this does not slow him down at all (back leg missing since he was 3 months old). He walks and runs just fine. If you would like more photos or videos of Rookie, please let us know. And if you are interested in adopting him, we would be happy to set up a visit for you to meet.

These pups are in Pontiac, Illinois too!

Story
"Small things become big, Winter turns to Spring, One thing always changes into another. Through all my years of living, I have become very used to change. Over the span of my life, I have traveled around and made a lot of friends. As I am getting older I am ready to settle down in one place to call home for the rest of my life. I am really excited to make more friends along the way while searching for a best friend I can spend the rest of my life with!

Story
Rosie is a very zestful girl. She will always keep you on your toes ready to go! Everyone always says how pretty she is with her blue and brown eyes but that is just a few of the awesome qualities she has. She loves to go outside and walk but she almost always has to be rubbing up against you while she is walking. She is more than ready to find her forever home if you could help her out with that!
