Story

Max is a great dog loves to play and loves his bones! We have had issues with potty training since the beginning. For the most part he is okay with going potty outside but he wears a diaper inside as he likes to mark around the house. He is also an escape artist so we always take him out on a leash. He’s a great dog. But unfortunately we cannot keep him, and we are looking to rehome him. He knows how to sit, give paw and roll over. He is great with kids too

Meet Raven — the senior Boxer mix with a heart as big as her gentle soul. Life hasn’t been the kindest, as she was found abandoned at an intersection, but she’s ready to find a soft, loving place to call her own. Raven is a shy lady at first, needing a little time to feel safe, but once she warms up, she shows her sweet, playful side. She loves people, enjoys exploring, and still has plenty of energy for walks and outdoor adventures. If you’re looking for a tender, goofy companion who’s equal parts snuggler and explorer, Raven is your girl.Dogs: No thank you! I find them annoying. Cats: UnknownKids: Older, respectful kids. Younger kids may be too much for me.

Elliot

Labrador Retriever Australian Shepherd

Aurora, IL

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Elliot. We are guessing he is a 2 year old Australian shepherd/lab mix with maybe some hound or even Greater Swiss Mountain Dog. No matter his breed he is 100% good boy! He is a great size at 50 pounds. Elliot came into the shelter as a stray. He can be nervous in new situations so an adult only home or one with older children would be ideal. As he gains trust in his people his personality really starts showing. He is a goofy boy who loves to be near his humans. He would do well in an active house and may even thrive in dog sports like agility. He is still learning proper manners like not to jump on people or play nip. He also does not understand the concept of personal space. We are working on these. Elliot is slowly learning about toys and how to play with them, instead on hands. Elliot does well on leash. He can pull some, especially when seeing another dog or critter, but does better when using a no pull harness. He rides well in the car so may make a great adventure buddy! He is a great mix of active and snuggle bug. Once he gets his energy out he loves nothing more than to nap on the couch by his person. He does really enjoy running around in his fenced in yard. He has been having a blast in all the snow! Elliot had some marking in the house when he first came home, but he has been doing great with potty training since then. We do try to let him out more frequently when we are home, but he can go for 6-7 hours while we work. He is crated at night and when we are not home. He whines a bit, but does seem to settle down. Elliot is currently living with 2 smaller dogs. He overall is doing very well with them. He can be a little possessive with food and treats so feeding separately is recommended. Otherwise he loves to play with his foster brother and torment his foster sister. He can be a little over bearing, and doesn’t seem to understand when the other dogs have had enough. We do not know about cats. Elliot is going to be a great companion. If you would like to meet this dog, please call Annie at 815-685-0746. The adoption fee is $275. Adoption fee includes: - microchip - spay/neuter - age appropriate vaccinations: Bordetella, DH(L)PP, rabies - heartworm preventive & flea/tick preventive - deworming
