Story
We got BluMoon from Petland in Naperville, IL 7 yrs ago. Her birthday is 4/5/16. We are looking to rehome her, because I have 3 small dogs and she has shown aggression towards them. She is very protective of her food, toys, bed, and crate. Since she has shown aggression towards the small dogs, I keep the small pups in a large pin while Blu gets her exercise. Blu loves being in the yard while the little pupss play around the house, ultimately I cant have them together in the same place. I believe Blu would thrive in a home without small pets. Blu is calm and very chill with her humans and her Husky friend. She dislikes water, so grooming is always an experience for her. She loves being in the yard walking the fence line and she loves playing with her friend KyloRen, also a husky. She loves to sit on the couch and watch movies, while getting belly rubs. She is a sweet girl. She's playful and loves to talk.

Story
Mookie is an 8-year-old Pit Mix, weighing just over 70lbs. She has been in a foster home for a couple of years, and we are ready to get her into her forever home!! Mookie is sweet and playful, but she does prefer to be the only dog in the home. She does not get along with cats. Mookie keeps her kennel clean and enjoys playing with squeaky plush toys and snuggling in bed. She loves to go on walks with all her volunteer friends. She thinks she's a lap dog too, and it's hard to tell that little face no! Mookie's favorite outdoor activities include sunbathing and taking naps in the pool.

Story
Queenie is a gorgeous, 3.5 year old, 70lb pit mix who is just a giant baby in disguise. She is full of energy and loves to play! She has no knowledge of personal space and just wants to be on top of you and in your face. Queenie would do best in a home without other dogs or cats. She may do okay with teenagers. She loves to greet you with her sweet face and wagging tail. She would make an excellent companion and cuddle buddy! She is easily spooked by strange objects (ex. wheelbarrows, plastic bags), shadows, and strangers at first. Once she meets you, she is a lovebug and a goofball! Her favorite toys are giant rope toys and hard chew bones. Please help us get Queenie out of the shelter!

Story
Where are our athletes at? Marlo has never ending supplies of energy and could 100% beat you in an arm-wrestling match if she had hands. Marlo is 2 years old and guessed to be a Saint Bernard/ Pit mix. She's all muscle (weighing in right at 80lbs) and goofy loving eyes. Marlo LOVES balls: tennis balls, basketball-sized balls, giant indestruct-a-balls. You name it, she's playing soccer with it. She does need some training with play time as she gets too excited when you go to grab the toy and will try to grab it at the same time as your hand. She does enjoy jumping up onto you for love and to give kisses, too. Once she calms down a bit, she'll sometimes climb onto your lap to snuggle. Marlo needs an active and strong leader who can help her be her best! She is looking for a home without cats or young kids. She is dog-selective. Are you looking for a buff dog to join your morning workout routine? Consider this giant goofball!

Story
Meet Cupcake! This gorgeous girl came to us from local animal control after a long, rough, confusing start to life. Cupcake is a typical young pup: full of energy and very curious. She is a very active and energetic dog. Cupcake is likely a lab/pit/shepherd mix, weighing in just under 60lbs. She is around 1 year old. She needs a home that will work with her through her puppy-type behavior and training, so she becomes a well-mannered, 100% adorable adult! Plus, how can you not love those huge ears! Cupcake would be best placed in a home without cats.
