Story
Must love large, charming knuckleheads and canine kisses!Yukon Cornelius (nicknamed Jess) is a 60-pound, 7-month old boy full of puppy curiosity, joyful exuberance and energy. He's a Shepherd mix that comes with energy and athleticism along with intelligence, which this breed is known for. Yukon is a social butterfly and loves playing chase with his canine foster brother. As with most youngsters, the secret to his continued success will be lots of exercise. Yukon will require training, consistency and abundant activity - both physical and mental - to ensure he continues to develop into an amazing sidekick. His favorites things include chew toys, squeaky toys, dirty socks, mealtime and going for walks. His leash skills are still very much a work in progress as everything on a walk is so fascinating. He is crate trained and house trained, sitting by the door when he needs to go out. One role Yukon takes very seriously is "guardian of his kingdom," barking at any strange noise. That sneaky delivery driver better watch out! In the evening, after a long hard day of security guarding, he likes to relax with a well-deserved chew toy and whatever's trending on Netflix. Yukon would love to find a home where his people will lavish him with affection and provide consistency, patience and continued training. A fenced-in yard is a must and a playful canine companion or a couple of days a week at doggie daycare would be icing on the cake! Due to his size, he may be better suited to an adult-only home or home with older children.Yukon's large, expressive eyes, big personality, and perhaps most importantly, the non-stop wagging nubby tail will capture your heart. Interested in adopting this dog? Visit our website (http://www.SecondCityCanineRescue.org) to fill out an application and to find out where this dog may be shown this weekend.We love our dogs. We want happy lives for all of them and are looking for the home that provides the best fit for each dog's individual needs. Please understand that there may be multiple families interested in this dog. Also, please know that the breed mix listed is simply a guess. In most cases, we don't know their background. We encourage you to base your decision on individual personality and pet qualities instead of relying on our guess.Please understand, we only adopt our animals out near the Chicagoland area.

We will reach out to you as soon as your application is processed. Thank you in advance for your patience. All of our dogs start their journey in Memphis, Tennessee where they remain in loving foster families until they are adopted. Once adopted, some pups stay local in Memphis. Many others travel via one of our transport partners to their new forever homes. We use Pet Express Transport (https://petexpresstupelo.wordpress.com) for our Nashville, Knoxville and New England adoptions. For our Midwest adopters, we have our own private transport. Breed selection is done in conjunction with two local vets and is not to be considered a guarantee but rather a well-educated decision from well qualified staff. Due to the extremely high volume of inquiries we receive, we ask that you request, complete, and submit an application before asking additional questions. We try very hard to include all pertinent information in our bios. We are excited to help you find your new family member. However, Woof River is 100% volunteer operated. We want to spend our time saving dogs and assisting those adopters who have taken the time to complete an application. Thank you for understanding. Please LIKE Woof River on Facebook! Thank you for choosing rescue!!

Story
Hi! I'm Kiara & i'm looking for a home! Fun Facts: · I sleep all night in my crate. · I like other pups and LOVE to play. · I love car rides - prefer to stick my head out the window. · I love to go on walks.My foster mom says:Kiara is a big goofball! She is such a sweet girl who loves to play, chew, and go on walks. She will sit directly on your lap for pets and give you lots of kisses. She is very skittish, and is getting used to normal noises, movements, and it is very clear she was never in a home who loved on her like she deserves to be! Kiara is a big fan of kids, but takes a lot of time to be comfortable with men. She is not aggressive, but will run away and get really scared-slow intros are a must to build her trust! Kiara deserves a home and family that will put the time in to love on her and support her to become the best pup she can be! Having another pup to help build her confidence is ideal.Adoption fee is $320Email: dogs@almosthomefoundation.orgAlmost Home Foundation's adoption requirements:(1) Be at least 21 years of age;(2) Have the consent of all adults living in the household;(3) Have approval from the residence owner;(4) Have valid ID with current address;(5) Be approved by Almost Home Foundation as a suitable adoptive home; and`(6) Live in the suburbs surrounding Schaumburg (Illinois Residents only)*** Please note that Almost Home Foundation accepts only cash or checks for adoption fees; we do not accept debit or credit cards. ***

Story
Female - 2 years - 62 lbs - Microchipped - Spayed - ILHello! My name is Ellie and I am a 2-year-old, 62 lb spayed female. I am already housetrained and crate-trained. I should be crated when left home alone. I am friendly with new people after proper introductions and some time to warm up. I will actively seek affection from my people  and enjoy pets! I do well with visitors as long as I can meet them when they come in the house—we had a holiday party at home with lots of people over and I did well with everyone. Fast movements can make me anxious, so I would prefer any children in my home to be older. I love my dog friends although I can be selective about who I consider a friend. I love to wrestle with my foster sister and can play quite rough, so any other dogs in my home should have a similar play style. I  like my toys and am learning how to play fetch! I cannot go to a home with cats. I ride well in the car and enjoy tagging along for rides! My leash skills are a work in progress as I do pull quite a bit. I know sit very well and enjoy training so I would love a family willing to continue my obedience training!  I would love to find an adopter local to the Chicagoland area so I can meet you before coming home. I am an energetic, loving girl ready to find my perfect adoptive family—could that be yours?

Story
Male - 1 year - 50 lbs - Microchipped - Neutered - VAHi! My name is Xander and I am a 1-year-old, 50 lb neutered male. I am already housetrained and crate-trained. I should be crated when left alone. I am nervous with new people and anyone I meet needs to follow my lead and respect my social cues. I have been working with my trainer to understand appropriate interactions with people and have done well with men, women, and older children with proper introductions. I am very affectionate with my trusted people and love to spend time with you! I would do best in a low traffic home with fewer visitors. I love other dogs though I can be rambunctious with my request for interactions so not all other dogs love me. I would love to have a playful, tolerant, confident canine companion to help show me the ropes and who can help you continue teaching me my canine manners. I love to wrestle with my foster siblings! I enjoy toys, especially Kongs, and would love a yard where I can play or explore safely. I cannot go to a home with cats. I have been working on my obedience training and have learned sit, come, place, and off. I have also learned heel and walk well on leash. I ride well in the car and have been going on field trips to places like Lowe’s to practice my training in public! I strive with structure and boundaries. My adopter must be willing to come meet me and my trainer in the Kearneysville WV / Northern Virginia area to make sure we are a good fit! I have been working hard and am ready to find my perfect handler, could that be you?
