Story
Mookie is an 8.5-year-old Pit Mix, weighing just under 80lbs. She was in a foster home for a couple years before being transferred to our rescue. Mookie is sweet and playful, but she does prefer to be the only dog in the home. She does not get along with cats. She needs slow introductions, but once she trusts you she is madly in love! 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 sweet face no! Mookie's favorite outdoor activities include sunbathing and taking naps in the pool. Mookie has been diagnosed with arthritis and hypothyroidism. She is on meds for both and seems to be doing well! She is working on losing some weight to help with the arthritis, too.

Queenie is a gorgeous, 4 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 would do best with no young kids. For allergies, Queenie is on a fish-based sensitive skin and stomach diet. She also receives Apoquel daily.She loves to greet you with her sweet face and wagging tail. She would make an excellent companion and cuddle buddy! Queenie can be a little timid at first, but 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!

American Pit Bull Terrier St. Bernard

Shorewood, IL
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Marlo has never ending supplies of energy and could 100% beat you in an arm-wrestling match if she had hands. Marlo is 3 years old and guessed to be a Saint Bernard/ Pit mix. She's all muscle (weighing in around 75lbs) 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 you. She will gently jump up onto you for love and to give kisses, too. Sometimes she'll even 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, but dog meets are welcome. She seems to do best with more submissive, easy-going dogs. Are you looking for an active dog with lots of love to give? Marlo would love to come home with you!

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 pitbull/lab/shepherd mix, weighing in just over 60lbs. She is approximately 1.5 years old. She needs a home that will work with her through her puppy-type behavior and training. She is incredibly smart and knows how to sit and give paw for treats. She does have issues with occasionally jumping up for treats or attention but is easily redirected. Cupcake does have some fear with meeting new people, but once she gets to know you, she is an absolute love! Plus, how can you not love those huge ears! Cupcake would be best placed in a home without cats or young kids.

Story
Rudy is a 1.5 year old, 45lb terrier/pug mix looking for his new home! He loves to walk around investigating the grounds and rolling around in the grass. He has great form with summersaults too. Rudy is a nervous dog who will need a less busy home with plenty of patience. We think it would be best for him to have a home with 1-2 people. We would love to find someone with experience with nervous dogs. He needs consistency and routines so he can comfortably expect what is coming. Once Rudy starts to feel safe, he will ready to give all his love! He is always rolling over for belly rubs from staff or giving a hug. This sweet guy just needs a safe place to land.
