Story
My fee has been generously sponsored. I am bonded with my sister Fiona and have to go to a home with her. Meet this jazzy pair of sisters looking for a new family to take care of them. Fiona and Sabrina are sisters from other misters and share a beautiful bond. They love to play together and get attention from their friends at the kennel. They are active girls who would love a home they could play and have fun together in. Don't let that playtime fool you, these girls snuggle hard when they are done with their day! If you are lucky, you can join the cuddle puddle! All Pet Central animals are up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, spayed or neutered, microchipped (registration included), and current on parasite prevention. Dogs over six-months of age are heartworm tested. When adopting, we will ensure that you receive copies of veterinary and microchip records. Records are sent via email. Paper versions are available upon request. If you are interested in this pet, please fill out the brief Adopter Survey by hitting "Apply for Adoption" on the profile above.

Please note- Out of respect for our volunteers and staff, we are closed on Sunday and Monday and will not be processing any applications on those days.

A PCH! adoption counselor will contact potential adopters within three business days (PCH! cannot guarantee any pet's availability, but we make every effort to accommodate adopters with a reply and possible alternative suggestions). An adoption counselor and client will then have a conversation to answer questions, discuss any medical needs for the pet and determine the suitability of a match (if necessary, we may opt to put adopters in touch with foster parents). After a match is made, clients will be asked to sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee online through our secure payment system *Please see our modified no-risk return policy. (below) The PCH! adoption counselor will then set up a specific appointment time and location. Adopters should bring a pet carrier and/or a leash to pick up and their ID. Adult pets will be wearing a collar. It is important that clients arrive on time, neither early nor late. Cats and kittens are required to leave in a pet carrier. If your adoption is scheduled at Pet Central Helps!: Upon arrival inside the Crossroads Center complex (360 Wylie Drive), look for the black Pet Central Helps! semi-trailer, which is right outside of our facility (Suite 720).

We will take a "Happy Adoption Day” photo with your pet and family. If your adoption is scheduled at PetSmart – Bloomington, IL: Park in the PetSmart (1606 E.

Bloomington, IL
Size

Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Chunks is about a year and a half old and weighs approximately 30-40 pounds. She appears to be a medium-sized German shepherd mix with a big personality and a even bigger heart. I originally met Chunks while dog sitting her, what was supposed to be a one-week stay turned into about a year. Chunks is full of energy and always ready to play. She loves being outside, running around and exploring the yard. One of her funny little habits is sitting on top of outdoor tables, likely so she can see over the fence a bit better. She thrives on routine, positive attention and yummy treats.

Story
Meet Milo, a sweet, energetic, and endlessly loving German Shepherd/Bull Terrier mix who still hasn't gotten the memo that he's no longer a puppy. Born around November 2020, Milo came into our lives in January 2021 through a family friend whose hands became wonderfully full after welcoming newborn twins. We said yes without a second thought and we've never regretted it. Milo is genuinely one of a kind! He's the kind of dog who loves hard, plays harder, and has more than enough affection to fill a home. What Milo needs now is space, room to run, stretch his legs, and truly come into his own. Apartment living has made it clear that this boy has bigger dreams than city walls can hold. Like many sensitive souls, Milo has developed a little anxiety around unfamiliar noises — loud bangs or sudden thuds will send him retreating to his favorite quiet corner. He's not a barker; he's just a dog who appreciates peace. With the right environment and patient, loving people, we believe he'll thrive.

Story
Irina~ Let’s talk “Breed-Bias.” 🤨 Sweet Irina was listed as a Shepherd/ Husky mix a month ago and quickly adopted at 4-months old. Fast forward a month and Irina was just returned. By all accounts she was said to be “perfect.” Irina is smart,well behaved, and a great puppy. Why was she returned? Because her adopter had a DNA test done and found out she had some pitbull in her lineage. Same great puppy, now with a bias. Irina is looking for a FOREVER home and family. One who will love her and see her for who she is. If you’re looking for a great young dog, go to tapsshelter.org and fill out your application. Let’s get this girl into the right home.
