Story
Meet Sir Drake. Also known as Sir Meathead. Sir squishy face. Sir Serious. Drake is a former Death Row inmate whom we helped free due to his innocence. He is around 3 years old, so his playfulness is only when he goes on walks. Otherwise, he is chillin' like a villain. He loves food, food, and more food. He is a strong boy, so the food and balance of little kids may be in jeopardy when he is around. His perfect home would be where he was the center of attention. He is not a fan of cats either. He thinks he was born to be the only pet in the home.

Meet our adorable Fiona. Princess Fiona! She is a petite 36lb girl who craves love and snuggles, making you feel appreciated as her potential new family. She sees only love in everyone around her. She is interested in the cats, but doesn't try to chase or bark at them. She knows some basic commands and keeps her kennel clean. She would love a home to appear in that crystal ball in her near future.

Gigi

Jack Russell Terrier Mixed Breed (Small)

Female, 2 yrs 1 mo
Rock Falls, IL

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Scared little Gigi came to us as a very timid girl. But she has made progress in such a short time. Now she wants as many pets as she can get! She is a Jack Russel mix, so she does like her room to run off some of that energy. Then she snuggles right down next to her person. She is still a bit nervous of all the big dogs, but we believe it is just due to the kennel environment. She is definitely housebroken. If you would like to add a little russel to your home, she would love to be your girl.

Story
"Just like Ronnie says...be my little baby." This stunning girl is a super shy one. She does take some time to warm up. So she needs someone patient. She is a Shepard mix. She is 3-4 years old. She has not been around kids, so she needs some training. She will sit so pretty, but hasn't graduated to going on walks yet. She is super aware of her surroundings so anything different she has to get used to. She has made a lot of progress and we have faith she will make someone a great partner.
