Story
Meet Little Debbie, a 1-year-old Great Dane mix who comes with two modes: sweet snack-sized puppy and her fabulous alter ego, Big Debra, Queen of the Gentle Giants. At 98 pounds of love, legs, and lean-ins, this girl has quickly become a staff and volunteer favorite—because honestly, how could she not? Little Debbie is a kind, affectionate soul who genuinely believes she’s a lapdog. She rode beautifully in the car, gently resting her enormous head on her driver’s shoulder after her request to ride shotgun was declined. She’s been reported to be good with kids as young as 2, she’s good with dogs, and said to be good with cats. This stunning girl does still need work on her leash manners. She’s very strong, so her future family will need to feel confident handling a giant breed. But she’s bright, eager to please, and with a little guidance, she’ll be an incredible companion. If you’re ready to welcome a loving, goofy, heart-melting giant into your home—and don’t mind the occasional Big Debra moment—Little Debbie is ready to make your life a whole lot sweeter. Her minimum adoption fee is $300 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. For information about this dog's breed(s), visit: http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/abc.htm To fill out our adoption application, go to: http://fs16.formsite.com/WishBoneCanineRescue/adoptionapplication/index.html Wish Bone Canine Rescue  1303 Morrissey Drive Bloomington, IL 61701 www.wishbonecaninerescue.org           Since its our desire that you have a pet you can enjoy a lifetime of love with you, we take special measures to ensure that the pet is the best match for you and your family.  We require that you complete our online www.wishbonecaninerescue.org (Please give us 24 hours to verify your information). If you have any other questions, you can reach us by email (preferred) at wbcrshelter@gmail.com.  Thank you.December 5, 2025, 3:13 pm

Story
Bruno needs lots of love. He was abandoned by his first family. They literally left him in their house when they moved away. When we first got him, he was skiddish, always cowering when we would reach out to pet him. He acts more like a dog now, but he is very protective. He does not like to be left alone.
