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.

Story
🔩 TIN MAN2 years old | Under 25 lbs | Chihuahua mixTin Man may look a little rusted at first, but with patience and kindness, this boy is going to shine.With striking blue eyes and a look that sets him apart from his brothers, Tin Man is a chihuahua mix with hints of something herdy in his background. He’s currently very shy and still adjusting to all the new sights and sounds of shelter life.The good news? With quiet time and gentle reassurance from staff, Tin Man has already started to open up. Once he trusts you, he’s going to be incredibly loyal and loving, the kind of dog who sticks close once you’re “his person.”Tin Man needs a calm home and an adopter willing to move at his pace. Give him time, and you’ll see there’s a whole lot of love under that shiny exterior.We were told that he and his brothers are housetrained, but are used to going in and out as they please with a doggy door to a fenced in backyard. They will need leash training and housetraining in their new home. His adoption fee is $200 and this includes his neuter, vaccines, heartworm test, monthly preventions, and a microchip that we register for you. To apply visit EffinghamCountyHumaneSociety.org

Story
🦁 COWARDLY LION2 years old | Under 25 lbs | Chihuahua mixCowardly Lion may have the fluff of a king, but right now he’s still working on his courage.The biggest of the brothers (though still under 25 lbs), Cowardly Lion is a soft, straw-colored chihuahua mix with expressive eyes that show just how unsure he feels. New situations can be overwhelming, and he’ll need extra TLC as he learns the world isn’t quite so scary.Like Tin Man, Cowardly Lion has already started to come out of his shell with patient staff members who spend quiet, gentle time with him. Each step forward proves that bravery doesn’t mean fearless, it just means trying.With the right adopter, Cowardly Lion is going to grow into a deeply loyal, affectionate companion who bonds hard once he feels safe. All he needs is someone willing to walk beside him on his yellow brick road.We were told that he and his brothers are housetrained, but are used to going in and out as they please with a doggy door to a fenced in backyard. They will need leash training and housetraining in their new home.
