Story
Who’s looking for a little extra sunshine in their life?! Sweet Sunny has a story that is sadly all too common these days - she was picked up as a stray in rural Texas, and brought to the local shelter where she waited for a family who never came looking for her. While we’re not 100% sure what Sunny’s past looks like, she is as sweet as they come. She has several characteristics of a Great Pyrenees, stubborn, cautious and will bark when she hears something, but also is a very loving, sweet and gentle girl. As Sunny has settled into her foster home she has done really well. She is getting along great with the resident dogs, and would really love another dog to play with in her forever home. She does seem to like cats, but maybe just a little bit too much, so we would recommend a home without. She’s still learning that toys can be fun, but she does love chewing on bones. Sunny will require a home with a fully, physically fenced yard. She has been spayed, microchipped, and is up to date on vaccines. If you would like to give Sunny the forever home she deserves, please reach out to yurko.mar0903@gmail.com for an application.

Story
Yes, you can say it—I know I’m handsome. - Available for foster or adoption in Illinois Hi, I’m Ollie, and yep—I get it all the time. "How did he end up in a rescue?" Well, here’s the deal: my family recently welcomed a new baby, and as much as they love me, the tiny humans make me a little nervous. I’m also a bit rambunctious (okay, a lot), and they decided I’d be happier in a home that better fits my energy. Now, I’m on the lookout for someone who gets me. BALL. IS. LIFE.Running and chasing the ball? Favorite thing ever.Playing ball again immediately after? Also my favorite.Did I mention I’m extremely passionate about ball? I also love car rides and going for walks. Got a spare pair of sunglasses? Let’s match and turn heads—because with my shiny, soft fur and movie-star looks, we’re going to get noticed. I’m also very treat-motivated—so you’ll have to pass the “Good Treato Distributor” test if we’re going to be besties. I’m located in Illinois and would love to meet you! ##2419593##

Story
Hi, I'm Peanut. Thanks for taking a look at me! I know my cute face is irresistible, but remember that I will take up lots of your time and attention while I grow into an awesome adult dog. Socialization, training (including house training), and exercise are just a few of the things I will look to you for. Chewing, teething, and learning what is Okay and not Okay to put in my mouth are all part of the puppy experience. And, be prepared for the time and money for frequent trips to the vet during the first few months so I can get up to date on my boosters and vaccines. But most of all, be prepared for all of the LOVE, puppy kisses, and joy I will bring into your life. If you are up for the challenge and the fun, stop in and meet my cute self in person during our adoption hours. For more information, email info@ahconnects.org or call us at 847-697-2880 x: 0, and the staff will be happy to help you. Our dogs and puppies go home spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested (7 months and over), and up to date on core vaccines, heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives. Their adoption also includes a free-vet exam at one of our participating veterinarians.

Story
Maggie May arrived with her sister Molly Sue.  They are approximately 4 yrs old and very sweet, loveable girls.  Molly is bigger than Maggie but, Molly could stand to lose a few pounds!  Since the girls have grown up their whole life together we are hoping that they can be adopted out to the same person/family.  First priority will be given to those applicants who would be willing to adopt both.  If not adopted as a pair any potential adopter must have another dog in the home to help with a smooth transition to their forever life.  Foster home update: Maggie attached to me instantly. She's really sweet, and just wants to be loved on.  She's the calmest golden I've ever met, but that could change as she opens up more.  She is pretty reserved even when my dogs try and play with her, but I feel like she will given in once she feels more comfortable.   We recommend training for all our dogs! It's not true what they say - an old dog CAN learn new tricks!     **Magnificent Mutts is an all foster home based rescue and meets are held by appointment with the entire family in attendance. Please ensure your current pets are up to date with vetting, have landlord/HOA approval and are prepared to take your new family member home at the adoption appointment.  Thank you for your interest!                                       If you are interested in adoption, please complete the "Application to Adopt" which can be accessed from this link: (       www.magnificentmutts.org )  No phone calls please, emails only. Adoption donations range between $360-$400 (cash only), unless otherwise noted. Prices are subject to change, please contact for specific adoption donation. Please visit www.magnificentmutts.org for the online dog application. June 6, 2025, 5:00 pm

Story
Willow is a beautiful, sweet girl that is a fun, lovebug that craves people attention! She is approximately 1 year old and finished nursing a litter of pups, so is still working on getting her girly figure back!   Willow will require a secure yard as she will run, if given the opportunity.  She is great being an only dog as she loves everyone and wants ALL the attention.  If there is another dog in the home, it should be a male.      We recommend training for all our dogs!    **Magnificent Mutts is an all foster home based rescue and meets are held by appointment with the entire family in attendance.
