Story

He is very chill, and snoozes a lot of the day. He is house trained and currently has a doggie door where he is free to go inside and outside. When I forget to latch the gate he takes a visit around the neighborhood (we are a very rural small town) but will not stay out for long. He gets along just fine with a cat right now, and previously has gotten along with 4 cats. He's been around my son since he was about 1 years old and is very patient with children. Has also lived with a (rather hectic) american bully and been just fine/patient/easygoing. When we adopted him, I was a two adult/two income household, but have now been a single parent for several years and while his basic needs are being met, he could have a much better life with someone who can keep up with his care. He has some yeast issues: his ears have been very bad and need consistent medicine and vet visits to clear up and I have just failed to be able to do that for him and I can tell his is uncomfortable.

Story

Meet Willow! Shes a sweet 2 yo German shepherd mix full of love to give to her next home! She was found as a stray and adopted from our local shelter. Shes very cuddly and loves attention! She will snug right up to you and hop right into bed! Willow currently lives with a corgi and a cat and does well with them! She loves to play often and has high energy, so a fenced in yard or decent sized home is a must! She's partiall house-trained but still has the occasional accidents, she has improved a lot since we got her and has so much potential! Willow seems to have a slight fear of men and prefers women and children! She can live in a household with men but will take longer to warm up to them! She loves her food and toys and is a big chewer! She will steal socks and horde them! She also loves to spin when it’s food time! My husband and I are unable to keep her because of our schedule as well as her being more than I can handle. She needs a home with a more experienced owner.

Huk

German Shorthaired Pointer

Male, Young

Taylorville, IL

Size

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

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We were asked to help the previous owners find a good home for Huk because he did not get along with their two dogs. We had hopes that he would get along better with his litter mate who we adopted when he was 5 months old. Our dog has always been a good and welcoming host when we have had other dogs around but after 2 1/2 mo Huk is still showing aggression towards his brother and there have been a couple fights. We have seen a trainer who said that food aggression can be worked out, but after training - they are likely to "tolerate each other" but not like each other. They have been constantly separated since the last fight & we do not think it is fair for either dog to have to trade off attention. When not around his brother, Huk is a model dog - very polite, mild mannered and loves to cuddle and play ball. We are working on commands and he does know "sit" and will almost shake. We feel that he would be a great in a 1 dog family.

Story

Bear is a lovable, playful very loyal dog. Unfortunately my other dog had puppies and since rehoming all the pups my female has become aggressive and mean towards Bear. Bear has been a wonderful dog that I rescued and was able to get back to his healthy loving self. Bear is fantastic with kids and dogs just not after our female had a litter of pups. Bear is around 2 years old and listens very well and is house trained.
