Story
We can't have a Bonnie without a Clyde! Clyde was terrified at animal control, and he showed teeth to just about everyone. He LOVES other dogs, and quickly started to trust his foster mom. Sometimes, they just need patience and love. This is why foster families are SO important! Clyde was at risk of euthanasia due to his fear-based aggression. This poor little guy was just misunderstood. He is just 3-years-old, and he is a little plump at 12-pounds. We think he's likely a Chihuahua/JRT mix. Clyde must have another friendly dog in his forever home. He would be best in a family without young children. Someone who can continue to help him to trust strangers would be ideal. Clyde is good on a leash, in the car, likes to cuddle, and he likes to play. He is fine in a crate, but you have to let him come out on his own time. He is terrified if you try to pull him out manually. Can you help bring joy to a little lad like Clyde? If so, he promises to return that love in spades. Please apply here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DBSR/Dog His minimum adoption donation amount is $345. He is neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, heart worm checked, and on flea/tick and heart worm preventatives. We are located in Bloomington, IL We do not ship, you would need to travel to pick up your babies if you live out of state. Your current pets must be up-to-date on core vaccines, spayed/neutered, and on heart worm prevention year round. You must be at least 21-years-old to adopt.

Story
If quiet souls are your favorite kind, Betsy just might steal your heart. At only 1 year old and 8 pounds, this precious Chihuahua is learning that life can be kind. Betsy came from a heartbreaking hoarding situation with 130 other dogs, so the world is still a big, unfamiliar place to her. She isn’t fearful forever—she just needs a little time, patience, and someone who understands that trust is earned. One thing that gives Betsy confidence? Other small dogs! She absolutely needs a friendly, confident canine companion in her forever home to show her the ropes and help her continue blossoming. Watching another dog enjoy life helps Betsy realize she can too. She is crate trained, rides well in the car, and is potty pad trained. Leashes are still new to her, so she’ll need a secure home and a family willing to let her learn at her own pace. Because sudden movements and loud activity can be overwhelming, Betsy is looking for a home without small children. Cats are unknown. There was a brief moment when we thought Betsy was expecting puppies, but it turned out to be a false (pseudo) pregnancy. She has now been spayed, is healthy, and is more than ready to begin the next chapter of her life. Betsy isn’t looking for perfection—she’s looking for patience, gentle encouragement, and a home where she can continue discovering just how wonderful life can be. The day she finally chooses your lap, follows you from room to room, or wags her tail with confidence will be a moment you’ll never forget. Could you be the family that shows Betsy what love has always been meant to feel like? ❤️ Please apply here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DBSR/Dog Her minimum adoption donation amount is $375 She is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, heart worm checked, and on flea/tick and heart worm preventatives.

Story
Meet Fitz, a 7-year-old Chihuahua mix weighing 12 pounds, and prepare to fall head over heels for this one-of-a-kind little gentleman. Missing one eye has never dampened Fitz's spirit. He greets each day with curiosity, a happy heart, and an adorable personality that's impossible not to love. Fitz is full of charming little habits that will make you smile. Before hopping onto the couch, he pauses for a moment to gather his courage, then makes the cutest little leap. When he wakes up, he gives an Elvis-worthy shimmy from head to tail before starting his day. He's also become quite the TV enthusiast, especially if there's a soccer game on, and he'll happily settle in beside you to cheer on the action. This sweet boy loves being close to his people. Whether you're relaxing at home, heading out for a car ride, enjoying a sniff-filled adventure in the yard, or stopping for a pup cup, Fitz is happiest when he's by your side. He enjoys walks but doesn't need long adventures to be content. A comfy couch, a cozy dog bed, and someone to cuddle with are all high on his wish list. He's done wonderfully with the large Labrador in his foster home and has been friendly with every person and animal he's met. While he'd be perfectly happy as your one and only spoiled sidekick, he can also share his home with another respectful dog. Because he has limited vision on one side and can pivot quickly when surprised, a home with older, understanding children would be the best fit. Fitz may appreciate a little patience when it comes to being picked up, but once he's in your arms, he's more than happy to soak up the cuddles. Sweet, gentle, and endlessly endearing, Fitz is ready to trade foster life for a forever family who will love every little hop, shimmy, and snuggle he has to offer. His minimum adoption fee is $200 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
🤎 Meet Lucy — Small, Soft, and Learning to Be Brave Lucy is a 6-year-old, 8-pound Chihuahua mix who came from the same difficult hoarding situation as Ethel and Molly. Life taught her early that being quiet and invisible was the safest way to exist, so she learned to move softly, stay small, and hide when the world feels too big. Lucy is not the kind of dog who rushes toward affection. She doesn’t follow you around or seek out attention right away. Instead, she watches you from a safe spot — taking everything in, thinking carefully, deciding slowly. Trust is something she gives in tiny, precious pieces. What makes Lucy special is not that she is ready — it is that she wants to be. She is most comfortable in: 🐾 A calm, quiet home 🐾 With a gentle, patient person 🐾 With another confident dog who can show her the way 🐾 No young children — she needs tenderness and slow movements 🐾 A securely fenced yard, as she’s not fully used to leashes 🐾 Predictable routines, soft voices, and time One of the sweetest things about Lucy is how deeply she notices kindness. She may not run to you, but she sees you. She sees your gentleness. She sees your patience. And slowly, she begins to believe it. Her bravery will not come in grand gestures — it will come in quiet milestones: The day she chooses to nap near you. The day she takes a treat from your hand. The day she decides she feels safe enough to stay instead of hide. Those are the moments that will stay with you forever. Lucy will never be the loudest, boldest, or most outgoing dog. But she will be one of the most meaningful loves you’ve ever earned. If your heart opens for the shy ones — the gentle ones — the ones who bloom slowly… Lucy is waiting for you. 🤎✨ Please apply here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DBSR/Dog Her minimum adoption donation amount is $275 She is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, heart worm checked, and on flea/tick and heart worm preventatives.

Story
Hilde is an 8-year-old, 6-pound Chihuahua/Pug mix — a Chug, if you will. And honestly, she may be one of the best uses of six pounds we’ve seen. Hilde is extremely cuddly. Not likes an occasional cuddle cuddly. She is bed-snuggles-are-a-requirement cuddly. If you believe dogs should sleep in their own beds, Hilde would like to respectfully inform you that you are wrong. She’s quiet, wonderful with people, and gets along well with other small dogs. We were told she is not good with cats, so we’ll take her word for it and find her a kitty-free home. Hilde travels well, walks nicely on a leash, and is okay in a crate. She’s an easy little companion who mostly seems interested in being wherever you are — preferably touching you. At 8 years old, she’s past the puppy nonsense but nowhere near done with the good stuff. And that face.She’s just adorable as can be. There really isn’t a more sophisticated way to put it.

All Pet Central Helps animals are up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, spayed or neutered, microchipped (registration included), and current on parasite prevention. Dogs over six-months of age are heartworm tested. When adopting, we will ensure that you receive copies of veterinary and microchip records. Records are sent via email. Paper versions are available upon request. If you are interested in this pet, please fill out the brief Adopter Survey by hitting "Apply for Adoption" on the profile above. After we review your completed survey, we will contact you by phone or email within three business days. Please note- Out of respect for our volunteers and staff, we are closed on Sunday and Monday and will not be processing any applications on those days. Please get back to us right away when we call or email regarding an application so that we can quickly connect using the process below: Select a pet and submit an online adoption survey. A PCH! adoption counselor will contact potential adopters within three business days (PCH! cannot guarantee any pet's availability, but we make every effort to accommodate adopters with a reply and possible alternative suggestions). An adoption counselor and client will then have a conversation to answer questions, discuss any medical needs for the pet and determine the suitability of a match (if necessary, we may opt to put adopters in touch with foster parents). After a match is made, clients will be asked to sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee online through our secure payment system *Please see our modified no-risk return policy. (below) The PCH! adoption counselor will then set up a specific appointment time and location. Adopters should bring a pet carrier and/or a leash to pick up and their ID.

Story
Meet Trusty! Trusty is a 6 year old 22-pound Chinese Crested Mix with a kind and gentle personality. He's a nice boy who gets along well with other dogs, especially Cri-Kee, who arrived with him. While the two are friends and enjoy each other's company, they do not need to be adopted together. Trusty is deaf, so he would love someone who can be patient with him. With his friendly nature and easygoing attitude, Trusty is sure to be a wonderful companion for the right family. His minimum adoption fee is $300 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
Foxy is ready to trade the shelter for a calm home where he can truly shine. As a blind dog, he appreciates a quiet environment and patient introductions while he gets comfortable. Give him time, and you’ll discover what a wonderful little friend he is. All Pet Central animals are up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, spayed or neutered, microchipped (registration included), and current on parasite prevention. Dogs over six-months of age are heartworm tested. When adopting, we will ensure that you receive copies of veterinary and microchip records. Records are sent via email. Paper versions are available upon request. If you are interested in this pet, please fill out the brief Adopter Survey by hitting "Apply for Adoption" on the profile above. After we review your completed survey, we will contact you by phone or email within three business days. Please note- Out of respect for our volunteers and staff, we are closed on Sunday and Monday and will not be processing any applications on those days. Please get back to us right away when we call or email regarding an application so that we can quickly connect using the process below: Select a pet and submit an online adoption survey. A PCH! adoption counselor will contact potential adopters within three business days (PCH! cannot guarantee any pet's availability, but we make every effort to accommodate adopters with a reply and possible alternative suggestions). An adoption counselor and client will then have a conversation to answer questions, discuss any medical needs for the pet and determine the suitability of a match (if necessary, we may opt to put adopters in touch with foster parents). After a match is made, clients will be asked to sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee online through our secure payment system *Please see our modified no-risk return policy. (below) The PCH! adoption counselor will then set up a specific appointment time and location. Adopters should bring a pet carrier and/or a leash to pick up and their ID. Adult pets will be wearing a collar. It is important that clients arrive on time, neither early nor late. Cats and kittens are required to leave in a pet carrier.
