Story
Hey there, I'm Courtney, the sweetest 5-year-old German Shepherd weighing in at 60.4 pounds. I don't require tons of exercise, but I enjoy going for walks and playing in the house or yard with other dogs. Regular walks and interactive playtime will help keep me mentally and physically stimulated. A fenced yard would be paw-some for me, especially when nature calls - I'm not a fan of doing my business while on a leash. I thrive in an active home filled with kids and other furry pals - I even get along with cats! I'm at my best when I have friends to keep me company and share in all the fun activities. Whether it's romping around the yard or tagging along for a hike, I'm always up for an adventure! Now, let's talk about something important: my feelings about crates. Truth is, they stress me out a bit. But here's the thing, if I've got a human or dog friend with me, I seem to do better being left loose in the house. I prefer not to be left alone for too long. I'd love someone to be home with me most of the time, a dog to keep me company, or the ability to make friends at doggy daycare! When it comes to training, I know a few tricks like "sit," but I'm always eager to learn more. With a patient teacher and lots of positive reinforcement, I'm sure I'll be the perfect companion! Oh, and let's not forget about my favorite thing in the world: cuddles! I absolutely adore being around people, especially kids. I may be a big girl, but I think I'm a lapdog at heart. If you're looking for a loyal and affectionate companion, look no further - I'm right here waiting for you! My adoption fee is a minimum of $295, plus a $15 fee for rabies registration for McLean County residents aged four months or older. If you're ready to open your heart and home to a sweet and loving pup like me, let's make it official! She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Story
Tia is not just any German Shepherd; she's a petite bundle of love on a mission to win over hearts with her adorable antics and heartwarming personality. At three years old and about 49 pounds, she's a testament to resilience, having come to us malnourished but now thriving under the loving care of her foster family. This charming girl is on a journey to optimal health, steadily gaining weight and blossoming into the vibrant pup she was always meant to be. With her house training mastered and crate manners impeccable, Tia is ready to take the next step and find her forever home. Tia's zest for life is infectious, evident in her love for playtime whether it's romping in the yard, engaging in spirited games with her canine pals, or going on adventurous walks. Her playful nature extends to her affinity for toys, bones, and the occasional car ride, where she happily takes in the sights with a wagging tail. Although Tia may play a tad rough at times, she's a quick learner and effortlessly adjusts her play style to accommodate her furry friends. Her foster mom describes her as friendly, outgoing, and adaptable—a true testament to her resilient spirit. But Tia's charm doesn't end there. This smart cookie knows her commands like sit, down, shake, and fetch, even if she's still perfecting the art of relinquishing the toy for another round of play. And while cats may not be her cup of tea, Tia's love knows no bounds when it comes to children. Her gentle demeanor and affectionate nature make her the perfect companion for families looking to add a furry member to their brood. With her soft fur and irresistible charm, Tia is more than just a dog; she's a loyal friend waiting to bring joy and laughter into the lives of those lucky enough to call her their own. If you're ready to embark on countless adventures with a furry companion by your side, Tia is eagerly waiting to make your acquaintance. Adopt Tia today and let the love and laughter begin!  Her minimum adoption fee is $295 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Story
Ronnie is a very special girl. She likes to follow her people around wherever they go, but she can also be pretty independent from time to time. Ronnie likes to play with toys on her own schedule, but when she does play with them you can find her rooting through the toy box to find the perfect one. Ronnie walks pretty well on leash, but could benefit from some additional training (very food motivated). She is good with cats and most dogs as long as introduced properly. Ronnie sleeps in a crate at night or when left alone with no issues, and is also potty trained as long as she is kept on a regular schedule. Apply for this sweet girl today! All Pet Central animals are up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, spayed/neutered, micro-chipped (registration included), and current on parasite prevention. Dogs over six-months of age are heart-worm tested. When adopting, we will ensure that you receive copies of veterinary and microchip records.
