Story
Pickles was found by a crew of Site Conservation Technicians at Horseshoe Lake State Park in Madison County, IL. In July 2025. As of today no one has claimed him and he has been fostered by one of the technicians since then. The technician position is a temporary job and they will be out of work soon and will no longer be able to care for the dog so rehoming is critical at this time as all other shelters are full. He is both sweet and friendly as well as protective and obedient. Loves to travel and be by your side as much as possible. He requires time, patience, and a lot of exercise. He is no more than a year old according to the vet and up to date on all vaccines, as well as neutered. He has a basket of chew toys, food & water bowls, bedding, winter dog boots, and a harness. I can also accommodate with an outdoor run/lead system if necessary, keep in mind he is short haired and can get cold.

Story
My mom adopted me from Gateway Guardians shelter in East St Louis in April of 2024 when I was just a tiny baby! I was born on February 17, 2024. My life has been good - my mom works from home, I sleep with her every night and she's never really away from home. I live with a 7 year old cat and we get along just fine, though I'm always wanting him to play and he doesn't want to. I'm pretty quiet, but if someone knocks on the door I'm gonna let you know! I'm a seasoned pro when it comes to going potty outside and I do stay in the crate if mom is gone for more than a couple hours. I don't know any strangers and I absolutely adore every human I meet - even my apartment neighbors love to bring me treats! I'm really strong - a little stubborn - and I'd rather be snuggling than doing anything else. My mom is moving and cannot take me with her, so I really need to find a good home in order to avoid going back into a shelter!
