Story
I think Cabbage Patch got the memo that the Cabbage Patch is a popular dance, though she may not know the one on trend. Her version is to shake and wiggle her entire back end in enthusiasm. Cabbage Patch is approximately 3 years old, appears to be well-mannered, and walks well on a leash. She is a friendly girl who will be your dance partner for life! She does know basic commands like sit and shake. Potty training unknown.

Story
Meet Zane! This 2 year old boxer mix had a severe fracture of his front leg, so it had to be amputated. It doesn't stop him though. He can jump on beds and navigate at least some stairs (the foster doesn't have a lot of stairs, so we don't know how he would do in a two story house). He's very good with larger calm dogs, but will correct annoying puppies. Good with cats and kids, but can be protective of kids if strangers come by. He does adjust to new people fairly soon.  He is house trained and crate trained. He should be kept at a healthy weight because of his leg, and his joints should be monitored for arthritis.  The $225 adoption fee covers his neuter, vaccines, heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, deworming medication, and microchip registration.

Story
Hey there, fabulous humans! I am Michelangelo, a 5 month old Boxer mix. I've got the charm and charisma to make your heart skip a beat. Right now, I weigh in at a solid 18 pounds, but I have some growing left to do. Are you ready for a little pizzazz in your life?  If yes, I’m your guy! I'm on the hunt for my forever family, and while I'm waiting for them to find me, I've been having an absolute blast with my foster crew. I'm a sweet boy with a heart of gold, and I'm eager to bring joy into your home. Now, let's talk business. I'm making strides in the housetraining department, but hey, I'm a work in progress, and that's what makes me so endearing, right? On the upside, I'm a champ when it comes to my crate – you can call me the crate connoisseur! You won't find me lounging around all day; I'm a bundle of energy. I love racing around the house and yard, but my absolute favorite pastime is engaging in playdates with my canine foster buddies. We take brief walks, chase after toys, and even embark on thrilling car rides. So, as you can see, I'm not just a pup; I'm your all-in-one entertainment package! Now, here's the catch. I'm a little shy at first, but once you crack my shell, you'll discover a heart full of love. I'm searching for a home with a confident canine sibling who can show me the ropes and help me trust that I've found my forever family. I promise, the love and loyalty I'll bring to your life will be worth it. As for the nitty-gritty, my adoption fee is a mere $195, plus a small $15 fee for rabies registration if you're a proud McLean County resident. It's a small price to pay for a lifetime of tail wags, cuddles, and unforgettable memories with yours truly. So, what are you waiting for? I'm bursting with excitement to meet my new forever family, and I've got a heart full of love to give. Fill out an app so we can schedule a meet-and-greet, and let's start our journey of love, laughter, and paw-some adventures together! He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Hi, friends! I'm Raphael, a 5-month old Boxer Mix weighing 20 pounds. I'm on a quest to find my forever home, and I'm hoping you can be the one to make my dreams come true! Home Sweet Home: I'm already housetrained and quite the pro when it comes to behaving in my crate. I'm a little skittish, just like my siblings, but my foster family has been doing a fantastic job helping me come out of my shell. I absolutely love snuggling on the couch with them, and I'm ready to share all my cuddles with my future family. Playtime Pal: When I'm not busy being the best cuddle buddy, I enjoy running around the house and yard, playing with my favorite toys, gnawing on bones, and having a blast with my fellow four-legged friends. I would thrive with a confident canine sibling who can show me the ropes. Together, we'll have a blast exploring the world! Leash It Up: I might need a bit of leash training, so having a fenced yard in my new home would be a huge plus. But don't worry, I'm a quick learner, and with a little guidance, I'll be a leash-walking champ in no time. Adoption Details: My minimum adoption fee is $195, plus a $15 fee for rabies registration for McLean County residents. Your investment will ensure that you're bringing home a happy, healthy, and well-cared-for pup. Ready to make me a part of your family? Don't wait too long because my paws are itching to meet you! Fill out an application today to find out how you can bring me into your loving home. Together, we'll create a lifetime of cherished memories. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Story
Hello there, I'm Leonardo - I'm a 5-month-old Boxer Mix with a heart full of potential and a whole lot of love to give. I may be just 18 pounds, but my spirit is as big as the sky. You might say I'm a bit on the shy side, but don't let that fool you! With each passing day, I'm gaining confidence and revealing the sweet nature that's been hiding beneath the surface. I'm looking for a forever home where I can truly blossom, and I've got a couple simple requests for my future home: First, I'll need a confident canine companion by my side. A furry friend to show me the ropes of being a true dog - I truly thrive when I'm with my fellow canines. You see, I tend to get a bit upset when I'm separated from my brother, so having a furry friend will make me feel right at home. Second, I’ll need a fenced yard. It's the perfect space for me to explore and play, while feeling safe and secure in my environment. My foster family says I'm a real sweetheart, even though I'm still a little nervous. I haven't quite allowed myself to fully enjoy a good cuddle just yet, but deep down, I'm yearning for it. With the right family, I know I can let my guard down and reveal my genuine, sweet self. So, if you're ready to welcome a shy, but loving companion into your life, I'm your guy. My adoption fee is just $195 plus a $15 fee for rabies registration for McLean County residents. Let's make memories together and give me the loving forever home I deserve. I am ready to find my forever family – could it be with you? He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Story
Hello there! I'm Donatello, a 5-month-old Boxer Mix weighing in at 26 pounds. I've come a long way in the last three weeks and I'm starting to show my true personality. Once I gain your trust, I really open up and become the sweet, affectionate puppy I truly am. I've warmed up to my foster mom and dad, and I'm starting to get closer to the kids. I'm a friendly and playful pup, and my affection can be earned by showing attention to the other dogs in the house with lots of pets. I just can't resist joining in on the fun, so I'll push my way in for some petting. I believe I'll do best in a home with patient, loving humans who understand that trust takes time to build. I'm looking for a confident canine companion to help me on my journey of becoming the best puppy I can be and to gain more confidence in trusting my new family. I love playing with my foster siblings and I'm respectful of those who prefer not to play. Toys are my jam - I enjoy balls, stuffed toys, and chew bones. When I'm feeling unsure or nervous, like when new people come in, I like to retreat to my crate, which I consider my safe space, and I also enjoy napping there with the door left open. I absolutely adore spending time in my fenced-in yard. I'm in a home with a doggy door right now, and I love going in and out, chewing on sticks, and exploring the yard. In my future home, I'll be a wonderful addition to a loving family once I've learned to trust you completely. I'm eagerly awaiting the day when I can embark on this incredible journey with my forever family, and with your love and patience, I'll be an amazing companion. Ready to make me a part of your loving family? Fill out an application today so we can arrange a meeting and start our incredible journey together!  My minimum adoption fee is $195, with an additional $15 fee for rabies registration for McLean County Residents.
