Tyler 12-year-old Tyler was found as a stray in O’Fallon on 5/20/26. Staff were able to contact his owner, but sadly he was never reclaimed.Despite being a senior gentleman, Tyler is still full of love and personality. He does have some arthritis, so he appreciates gentle interaction and prefers taking things at a slower, more comfortable pace.Tyler is a sweet, happy boy who enjoys a nice balance—he can still play and keep up with the younger pups in short bursts, but he’s just as happy soaking up snuggles and quiet companionship.He is:Always smiling Potty trainedGood on leashSocial and enjoys gentle interaction with people and other dogsTyler is the kind of dog who makes every day a little softer and a little sweeter. He’s looking for a home that will appreciate his golden years and give him the love and comfort he deserves.

Story
This is Tilly, Tilly was adopted from our shelter as a puppy in 2017. She is now 8 years old and found herself back in the shelter today. The family had a baby, and Tilly didn’t like to share her space and belongings as much and nipped the child in the face leaving small scratch. The family was torn and really struggled surrendering Tilly but thought this was the best decision for their family. I am determined to find Tilly a home where she can live out her years and feel loved again. She is a sweet girl that needs someone to help her. Please help Tilly as she is already shutdown and sad being back at the shelter. She doesn’t understand, she recognizes the kennel and is confused why she is here.About Tilly:(Spayed, 8 years old, microchipped and vaccinated) -good with kids over 8-lived with a dog around her size for 7 years but has been only dog for over a year now (dog interaction required)-grew up around cats!-doesn’t like dogs smaller than her-very sweet, and loves to cuddle -very mild energy, and chill girl!-crate trained -fully potty trained -knows a lot of commands!-great listener-has occasional allergies & gets meds for this-per family, around adults never has guarded her food, toys etc! Does around small children. -very well mannered-she wants to be wherever her people are!-she loves walksTilly would thrive in a home with no young kids, she is so sweet and just wants a place to retire in and a couch to nap on??????

Story
Mabel a lower-energy girl who would much rather be laying in the sun than caught up in the chaos. ☀️ ✔️ Affectionate and gentle ✔️ Good with dogs, cats, and kids ✔️ Leash trained & eager to please ✔️ Loves to sunbathe and just relax The shelter is too loud, too busy, too much for her. But in a home? She’ll be your calm, easy, loving companion. Give Mabel a yard, a patch of sunshine, and a place to finally exhale.

🐾 HI, I’M TUNNEL! 🐾 Your handsome spotted boy with the nose of a detective and the heart of a marshmallow… once I trust you. 🤎 I’m a 2.5-year-old, 55-lb Retriever/Border Collie/Lab mix with the world’s cutest pink snoot and a patch over one eye that makes me look like a pirate… a very sensitive, easily-startled pirate. 🏴‍☠️💗 I’m a cautious guy who needs patience, consistency, and a calm home to feel safe. Once I decide you’re my person? I melt into your side like warm butter on toast. I’ll follow you, protect you, and be your loyal ride-or-die forever. ✨ My Stats (aka why I’m worth it): • 😳 Shy at first • 🐕‍🦺 Protective/territorial — I take my job seriously! • 🏡 Yard required for zoomies + security patrols • 💛 Moderate energy • 🚫 No cats, please (I think they’re tiny suspicious ninjas) • 🐢 A little cautious, but I try really hard Once I warm up, I adore other dogs, love being outside, and I’ll happily snooze near you like the big, spotted weighted blanket you never knew you needed. I promise: give me time, give me kindness, and I’ll give you my whole goofy heart. 👉 Click the link next to my name to learn more, apply, or schedule a meet & greet! #AdoptTunnel #SpottedSweetheart #RescueDog #StrayPawsRescue #AdoptDontShop #ShyButShining #WorthTheWork #ForeverHomeNeeded

Story
Hi, I'm Colby — a 4-year-old brindle and white Labrador Retriever who's ready to find my forever home! 🐕 I'm neutered, housetrained, and crate trained, which means I'm a low-maintenance companion who loves a calm routine. I'm a bit shy at first, but once I warm up to you, my loyalty and playful spirit really shine — I just need a patient, adult-only home where I can be myself. I ride beautifully in the car, get along wonderfully with other dogs, and I'm perfectly suited for apartment living. My adoption fee is $300, and I'd love to meet someone ready to give me the quiet, loving home I deserve. 💙
