Story
Meet Tiny TimDon’t let the name fool you… okay, actually — it’s pretty accurate. 😄 Tiny Tim is truly tiny, but his personality is anything but!This little guy came in with several other dogs, and our Facebook followers helped choose the perfect name to match his look and spirit. Tiny Tim is a Boxer/Chihuahua mix (heavy on the Chihuahua!) and currently weighs only 13–15 pounds. We guess him to be between 2-3 years old. He may be small, but he has big dog energy in the best way.He’s spunky, playful, and always ready for an adventure. He loves to zoom around during playtime, then happily curl up beside you for snuggles and kisses. He’s the kind of pup who makes every moment brighter — small in size, huge in charm.If you’ve been wishing for a tiny best friend with a big personality, Tiny Tim just might be your guy.📋 If interested, please fill out an application at effinghamcountyhumanesociety.org

Story
AVAILABLE Petey is a small guy who is looking for a permanent position as a lap dog. He is also looking for an adult only home, with just one adult, as he hasn't lived with children and gets possessive of his person. Petey has gotten along in a room with other small dogs running around here at CARA, but in intimate home settings he wants to be the only dog with his person, so no dog siblings for Petey. Petey doesn't bother cats. Petey also needs a low key home without a lot of activity or chaos. He is looking for a very quiet and calm person who just wants a lap friend. Petey is a pretty typical Chihuahua in personality, 7 pounds, neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. He uses pee pads here at CARA in his kennel area, but will need time to learn housetraining at his new home. Please email citizensanimalrescue@gmail.com for an application. A pre-approved application is required. Once your application is approved, we will set up an appointment for you to meet this little guy. If you have any questions please contact 217-799-8858 or 217-655-4353. Always allow time for decompression with a new pet in a new home, and in time it becomes their new normal. Petey's world has been turned upside down with his owner going into assisted living, shelter life, and everything he knew changing. He needs to learn he is safe.
