Story
Vida’s name means life, and it couldn’t suit her better. This beautiful boxer girl came to us from a situation of severe neglect, where she had been starved and confined to a very small space. When she first arrived, she was weak and unsure of the world around her. But in just a few short weeks in foster care, Vida has shown everyone exactly how strong and resilient she truly is. She is now at a healthy weight, continues to build strength in her hind end, and is learning what it means to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Vida especially enjoys the companionship of people and other dogs and has done wonderfully with her foster boxer sister. Vida is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. She is currently thriving in foster care while she waits for a special home that can offer patience, consistency, and plenty of time together. Vida has already come so far. Now she’s ready for a family to help her continue the journey. Vida is going to remain in foster until she finds her forever home! Meet and Greets will need to be scheduled.

Story
Meet Odin — At just 7 months old, Odin is a Boxer mix who perfectly embodies everything people love about the breed—playful, affectionate, and full of life. He’s fully vetted, neutered, and more than ready to find a forever home where he can share all the love he has to give. Odin absolutely adores his people and thrives on attention. Whether he’s curled up next to you for a cuddle session or following you around the house, he just wants to be part of your world. His loyalty runs deep, and he’ll happily be your shadow wherever you go. True to his playful nature, Odin loves spending time with other dogs and enjoys all kinds of toys. From chasing a ball to a good game of tug-of-war, his enthusiasm is contagious and guaranteed to bring a smile to your face. He’s also doing great with his house training and has wonderful manners for such a young pup. Odin is the kind of dog who brings energy, laughter, and warmth into every moment. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will keep life fun while also being your snuggle buddy at the end of the day, Odin is your guy. We encourage adopters to read profiles fully and reach out with any questions — we are always happy to help. Inquiries through the site are not consistently coming through. If you send an inquiry and we do not answer the same day, we didn't get it. You can use our direct email at atasnp@gmail.com or text/call 469-241-0000.

Adoption application link: https://form.jotform.com/222705071398154 Pickup Locations: Missouri: * Herculaneum (south of St Louis) - Friday evening Illinois: • Collinsville (north of St. Louis) - Friday evening • Springfield - Friday evening • Bloomington / Normal - Friday evening • Oglesby - Saturday morning • Roscoe - Saturday morning * Plainfield - Saturday afternoon Wisconsin: • Sun Prairie - Saturday late morning • Fond du Lac - Saturday early afternoon * Menominee Falls, Saturday afternoon Additional notes: • Green Bay area adopters meet in Fond du Lac • Davenport area adopters meet in Oglesby or Roscoe Medical & Spay/Neuter Information: Most puppies travel with two rounds of vaccines, and sometimes three. Occasionally, we may not have had a puppy long enough for a second round. Puppies under 6 months of age are not spayed or neutered. Spaying or neutering is a required condition of adoption and must be completed by the puppy’s first birthday or by your veterinarian's recommendation, at the adopter’s expense. Out-of-state surgery costs are not included in the adoption fee. Breed Disclaimer: Breed is our best estimate based on the puppy’s appearance and, when known, the mother’s appearance. Fathers are rarely known, and litters can have multiple fathers, meaning puppies may be half-siblings with different breed mixes. ⸻

Story
Rory has already left her mark on just about everyone involved in the day-to-day at LCHS. Dogs like her are the reason people get into animal welfare in the first place. Unfortunately, her looks and breed stigma haven’t done her any favors. Rory is a dog who needs the right environment, routine, and people around her to truly thrive. And honestly, she’s not alone in that. Plenty of dogs, even little Chihuahuas, can have similar needs after getting an unfair start in life. Rory may never be the kind of dog who happily tags along to a busy Saturday morning farmer’s market soaking up attention from strangers. But with the people she trusts? She's affectionate, playful, obedient, gentle, sweet, smart… the list really does go on. Some shelter dogs meet their forever family and head home the same day. Rory probably won’t have that kind of story either. She needs time and multiple interactions to feel safe around new people, which is why she’d do best with an experienced dog person and a quieter home. She’s learning that new people aren’t scary, but that’s hard work, especially in a shelter environment where there’s constant noise and stimulation. Rory’s absolute favorite thing in the world is playing fetch with her squeaky ball. Stuffed toys and giving kisses to her people are a close second. Once she’s out of her kennel, she’s immediately curious about everything around her. She still flinches when grass brushes her nose, and she’s never met a treat she wouldn’t gladly sit for. Somehow, through almost two years at LCHS, she’s stayed potty trained the entire time. Sometimes people expect shelter dogs to come perfectly put together, when really a lot of them are works in progress. Rory is no different. She’s 3½ years old, but she’s experienced less of the world than most 3½ month old puppies. Dogs like Rory are also why volunteers do what they do. The bond she’s offered me and so many others is absolutely the kind of bond worth adopting. It takes patience and time, but once she lets you in, it’s a friendship that leaves a mark. (Signed, A Volunteer Who Fell in Love With This Dog)
