Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. ⭐️ Noah ⭐️ Noah is a 12-month-old Border Collie/Lab mix… and 100% lovable goofball. This fuzzy little lovebug is eager to please and just waiting for his forever person or family to choose him. What’s he like? Great with other dogs and loves to play. Equal parts Velcro pup and independent entertainer — he’ll happily dig through the toy basket and keep himself busy. Knows not to chew furniture or shoes, though socks and dryer sheets are his weakness (he’ll drop them when asked!). Can get overstimulated in chaotic environments and prefers slow introductions. He may take a minute to warm up, but he’s worth the wait. Once he trusts you, he is the sweetest snuggle bug who just wants to be close to his person. What can he do? Kennel trained (sleeps through the night and goes in on command). Fully potty trained with subtle but clear cues. Excellent in the car — calm, comfy, and observant. Recently graduated a 10-day obedience program! He knows “wait,” “place,” “come,” “heel,” loose-leash walking, and more. His perfect match? ✔️ Someone committed to continuing his training and staying consistent. ✔️ A confident, dog-savvy adopter who can guide him and help build his confidence. No cats please! Noah is smart, silly, and full of heart — he just needs someone ready to have his back forever.

Story
Greetings, Humans! I`m so excited! Please allow me to reveal a bit about myself in hopes that you will want to come meet me!I think my name Ronaldo (of Romance-language origin) conveys a lot about my personality. I`m spirited, bold, confident, gallant, like a swashbuckler, dashing. Ooh, that`s it! Dashing totally describes me! Not only my handsome appearance, but also the fact that I happen to run like the wind! There`s no better feeling that I`ve ever experienced!Around a year old and 30 lbs. I also like slower-paced walks, since during those I get to walk alongside my human (ok, maybe I pull them just a little bit) while having the chance to investigate and do some serious sniffing. I am a friendly guy. Little humans, big humans, boy or girl humans - I like them all. I`m drawn to other dogs my size or larger; I am checking them out to see if they might make for a good playmate. Inside the house I have gotten the hang of going to the back door, so you`ll know that I have to go out. And I`ve learned that when I am told sit, it often means that something special and yummy might be offered to me! And if you have any of these types of toys in your house, that would be the bestest, because I like to keep busy, busy, busy! Chew toys, rope tug-toys, squeaky toys I like them all. If you would play WITH me, now that would make my playtime the best of all.I need my forever home to include another playful dog and a fenced in yard for us to play in. Ohhh, and no cats in my life, please.So why don`t you come meet me? Can`t wait to show you my dashing nature!Interested in meeting this dog? Fill out an application and to find out how to meet this dog.We love our dogs. We want happy lives for all of them and are looking for the home that provides the best fit for each dogs` individual needs. Please understand that there may be multiple families interested in this dog. Also, please know that the breed mix listed is simply a guess. In most cases, we don`t know their background. We encourage you to base your decision on individual personality and pet qualities instead of relying on our guess. Please understand, we only adopt our animals out near the Chicagoland area. Questions? Email us at adoptions@sccrescue.org. Hope to see you become part of the SCCR family!

Story
Nori is a beautiful 4-year-old rescue, 51% Collie and 49% German Shepherd. She is incredibly intelligent, affectionate, loyal, playful, and forms very strong bonds with her people.As Nori reached social maturity, some underlying anxiety and behavioral tendencies became more pronounced, particularly around our other female dog. We have had her evaluated and have worked hard to understand and manage her needs, but despite our efforts, maintaining a peaceful environment between the dogs has become increasingly difficult.We believe Nori’s happiest life would be in a calmer, predictable home where she can be the only pet and live without small children. She would do best with an experienced, patient owner who can provide structure, consistency, exercise, and lots of affection.We love Nori deeply. This decision is about giving her the opportunity to feel secure, relaxed, and thrive in an environment better suited to her needs.

Story
Hi, I'm Patch! Thanks for checking me out! I know my cute face is hard to resist, but here's the scoop: I'll need a lot of your time and attention as I grow up into the amazing adult dog I'm destined to be! I'm looking for a forever family that will help me with socialization, training (yes, that includes house training!), and plenty of exercise. And let's not forget the chewing and teething-I'm still learning what's okay (and what's definitely not okay) to put in my mouth. So, be ready for some puppy-proofing! Don't forget those vet visits! I'll need to stay up to date on my boosters and vaccines, which means a few trips to see my favorite vet in the first few months. But trust me, all that effort will be worth it when you experience the endless love, puppy kisses, and pure joy I'll bring into your life. So, if you're up for the challenge and the fun, why not come meet me in person? Stop by during our adoption hours. For more details, email info@ahconnects.org or give us a call at 847-697-2880 x: 0. The friendly folks here will be happy to answer all your questions! Can't wait to meet you and start our adventure together! All of our dogs and puppies go home spayed or neutered, microchipped, and heartworm tested (for dogs 7 months and older). They are also up to date on core vaccines, as well as heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives. Each adoption includes a 3.5-pound bag of dog or puppy food and a free vet exam at one of our participating veterinary partners.

Disclaimer: This animal is not in Anderson custody. and is a courtesy post to help a member of the community rehome directly without shelter intervention. Any adoption inquiries should be directed to the owner at dukejohnjr@gmail.com and/or (815) 482-8170.

Anderson Humane makes no guarantees regarding medical or behavioral status of this animal, and the current owner is solely responsible for disclosing any challenges or concerns. Anderson Humane is not responsible for any unsuccessful adoptions. Gus is a sweet boy looking for a new home. He loves running, playing chase, snuggling on the couch and his lambchop stuffed toy! He is asleep most of the day and can be left alone while his owners are at work. He regularly attends a local dog daycare and loves playing with other dogs. Gus is very affectionate and will gently greet you in the morning when you decide to get up. If you tend to sleep in like I do then he will gladly sleep in alongside you. He's very flexible in that regard and will lay back down to sleep if you need more rest. He is trained to sleep in his dog bed and will not get in bed with you unless you want him to. Gus can be very goofy and makes us laugh every single day with his expressive personality. Everybody falls in love with Gus when they first meet him! Gus responds really well to training! He is housetrained and knows all the essential commands. Unfortunately he does not get along with our cats and needs to find a loving new home. We are sad to see him go!
