Story
Meet Yams, a 2-year-old Labrador Retriever mix weighing in at 43 pounds of pure sweetness and quiet charm. From day one, she’s been showing just how wonderful a companion she’s going to be.  She truly shines during playtime. Yams adores romping and wrestling with her canine foster sibling, chasing toys, and happily entertaining herself with a good chew. After a short burst of fun, she transforms into a world-class snuggler, happiest tucked right against her humans for a cozy nap. Yams currently lives with a cat and can relax calmly enough to sleep beside it, but she still finds the occasional chase irresistible. Because of this, she would do best with a dog-savvy cat or in a cat-free home. She has not yet met children, but her foster believes she would do well with older kids who understand her shy, sometimes timid nature and can give her time to feel safe. Her foster describes her as friendly, gentle, adaptable, playful, and quiet. Despite being young, she has a calm, easygoing maturity that makes her a peaceful presence in the home. She doesn’t demand constant activity. She just wants to be near her people, share some play, and soak up affection. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who will greet you with soft eyes, happy tail wags, and endless cuddles, Yams may be the perfect addition to your family. Her adoption fee is sponsored. There is a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Story
This adorable guy is Ferb, a happy-go-lucky five-month-old Labrador Retriever Mix who weighs 36.7 pounds! He's noticeably more energetic than his brother, Phineas, and is always ready for fun.  Ferb is still learning the ropes when it comes to leash manners - likely because he hasn’t had much experience on one yet - but he's very eager and will benefit greatly from basic puppy training. Above all, he's a total lovebug: super sweet, affectionate, and full of charm. His minimum adoption fee is $325 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.

Story
Mamaw Betty is a 7-year-old Labrador Retriever mix weighing 61 lbs, and this girl is an absolute hoot.

Don’t let her age fool you, Mamaw Betty is young at heart with plenty of spunk to spare. She loves going for walks and enjoys staying active, but she also knows how to appreciate the good life with comfy beds, fun toys, and tasty treats.
