Story
Ah some fresh air! A little walk, a couple of zoomies in a play yard and I’m ready for belly rubs. Then let’s walk a little more, some sniffing here and there and of course I always stop to look at people when they talk to me. I love all the attention I can get. So now that you are seeing my online picture, imagine me with my big head of your lap, relaxing with you and just enjoying all these special moments of being together. I’m not too much into sharing my people with other pets but that’s just because I have so much love to give. I’d prefer a home with not too much commotion. I’m also pretty smart – get me to sit and stay, throw a treat and then ask me to find it. I always succeed….I have to say that I really like food. My tail is wagging in anticipation of meeting my new family.

Story
Hi, my name is Angel. I am a 7 year old boxer mix that loves the outdoors, chasing squirrels, and snuggling with my humans. I was adopted in 2019 from Reach Rescue in Mundelein IL. Unfortunately, that means that I am a COVID puppy and didn't get much socialization in my first year or two. I do get a little anxious around other dogs, even my very high energy dog sister. I have been professionally trained and am a good listener. I love snacks and being a good girl for my humans. I am looking for a calm home that has no other dogs. I like to be outside, so a yard or frequent walks is a must.

Story
Fiona is just over a year old and is a boxer mix. Due to skin and gut issues She does best with boiled chicken, white rice, fed three times daily with added water or homemade chicken broth, daily supplements and occasionally pureed pumpkin. She cannot eat other foods or certain bones as well. Any home with other animals must keep all pet food secured and use a covered litter box for cats. Fiona will do best with children over 10. Fiona will come with supplies, and more detailed information about her care and routine will be provided to serious adoption candidates. We are looking for a home that understands her needs and is willing to continue her current care regime & love her like we do.

Story
Meet Yogi! Yogi is an 8-year-old Boxer with a heart full of love and eyes that tell a story. This senior sweetheart came to us from Berrien County Animal Control, and it’s clear he’s been through a lot—but he hasn’t let that dim his gentle spirit. Yogi is ready to leave his past behind and spend his golden years soaking up the comfort and care he truly deserves. He’s the kind of companion who would be happiest by your side—whether that’s taking a leisurely stroll, lounging on the couch, or simply sharing a quiet moment together. He’s not asking for much—just a warm home, a soft bed, and someone to love him unconditionally. Could you be Yogi’s hero and give him the peaceful, loving retirement he’s been waiting for? From his foster: "Yogi learned to be comfortable in his cage after about a few nights and is safe to stay there for hours at a time. However, we trust him to stay outside his cage, with our two cats who also roam, while we're out/asleep and has never made any problems. He never barks and only whines when he wants to go outside. Yogi loves going on long walks (once we went for 2 hours and he still had gas in the tank). It’s much more energy than we thought he would, but that’s probably because we don’t have a yard for him to make his own fun. We’ve also discovered his love of tennis balls and squeaky toys. He loves competing in races for his tennis balls and squeaky toys. He’s not very interested in my cats at all, which is perfect. After about a week or two, they’ve become completely comfortable around him though they’ll get out of his way if they see him coming. It’s made things way less stressful knowing I can trust him with my cats. He seems to have zero prey drive, since he also isn’t interested in rabbits or squirrels that scurry across the sidewalk in front of us. He’s never had an accident in my apartment, though he has thrown up in a car before so now we bring a barf bowl which is pretty effective. We’ve started feeding him a mix of wet food to supplement his diet and help him put on some weight. He seems very fit now. His skin has also improved dramatically. There are no visible bumps or scars on his back, unlike how it looked when he first came home with us. We’ve been teaching him some tricks too. He knows “Stay” and “Come” pretty well, though won’t always listen if there are a lot of distractions. I’ve been teaching him “Leave it” and “Sit” as well. We thought he might be a little deaf at first because he’d ignore his name, but he definitely responds to it now. He’s very friendly with dogs that he meets. He likes to say hi, but he never obsesses over them which helps make him a lot less intimidating and a good companion dog. Similar to people, he likes to say hi and then move on with his walk. He's very sweet and not at all dominating. He’s very calm when meeting people and animals. Yogi is also very tolerant of showers. While he whines a bit, he does not struggle when properly tethered and is not dramatic compared to other dogs. He is further very tolerant of us cleaning his paws 3x a day when we come back from his walks so that he doesn't bring in dirt. Overall, he’s a really sweet dog and I love him. He’s the cutest thing. He loves cuddling with us on the couch but also isn’t too clingy and will stay out of my room."

Story
I acquired Neffy from a breeder. Her birth date is October 5, 2024. She is up to date on her shots and she is spaded. Neffy needs a loving home where she can get plenty of attention. She loves to cuddle and be patted. Neffy loves baths and playing with her chew toys. She is very intelligent and learns quickly. She loves running and playing with other dogs. She has plenty of personality. She does have a habit of eating non edible items such as leaves, sticks and Black Walnut shells. She loves children and company. She loves to run, play in snow, mud or just plain grass. I will soon be moving and I would love for her to go to a family instead of to a shelter.
