Story

Sweet little Bea was running around rural Georgia with her sidekick for several weeks after apparently being dumped. Everybody in the area said they were friendly, but no one knew them so they called animal control. The girls were very bonded at first, but we feel like their first love is people. They want to love people and be loved so badly but when they didn’t have any people, they became very attached to each other. Her sidekick has now found her forever home and it’s Miss Bea’s turn now. She’s exceptionally sweet and outgoing. She loves to go for walks and rides in the car. She also loves to snuggle on the couch. Bea is 22 pounds and between four and five years old. WE ARE ONLY GUESSING AT HER BREED! She does not really have a JRT temperament but she has the size and cute little short tail. She is up-to-date on vaccines, spayed and heartworm tested negative. She appears to be a very healthy and happy girl. She had a couple of accidents the first day in her foster home but now she’s doing very well with house training if you would like to be Miss Bea’s hero and the center of her world, please email omlc7@hotmail.com or Dogs4mylife@gmail.com and we will send you our information and application.

Story

Meet Emily! Emily is a 6-year-old female Jack Russell mix weighing about 30 pounds. She’s a very happy, energetic pup who loves going on long walks and playing with her toys. Emily is house-broken and sleeps comfortably in her kennel at night. She gets along well with other dogs, though her play style can be a bit rough at times. Emily knows basic commands such as sit, come, and down, and she’s a quick learner. She is still working on her leash manners but learns fast and enjoys her walks. Emily loves having company around and thrives when she’s included in daily activities. Overall, Emily is a wonderful dog who would do very well with an active family ready to give her plenty of exercise, attention, and love. 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. All of our dogs and puppies go home spayed or neutered, microchipped, and heartworm tested (for dogs 7 months and older). They are also up to date on core vaccines, as well as heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives. Each adoption includes a 3.5-pound bag of dog or puppy food and a free vet exam at one of our participating veterinary partners.

Story

Meet Winston 🐾 Winston is a 2-year-old Jack Russell Terrier / Beagle mix with the sweetest, most soulful eyes and a gentle heart to match. At 28 pounds, he’s the perfect medium size—big enough to enjoy adventures, yet small enough to be an excellent cuddle companion. Winston is initially a bit timid in new situations, but once he feels safe, his loving personality shines. With time and reassurance, he becomes very affectionate and truly enjoys attention. He loves relaxing on the couch, sleeping in bed with his people, and being close to those he trusts. He is mostly house trained and does best with a consistent routine. Winston is good with other dogs and has done well around children who are respectful of his gentle nature. While he hasn’t been formally tested with cats, his calm, easygoing temperament suggests he would likely do fine with proper introductions. Winston loves snacks and takes treats very gently, which perfectly reflects his soft personality. He’s still learning about leash walking and doesn’t love it yet, so he’ll need a patient adopter who can help him build confidence at his own pace using positive reinforcement. He is not crate-trained and currently sleeps on the couch or in bed—comfort and closeness are important to him once he feels secure. Winston is neutered, fully vaccinated, and ready for his forever home. Winston’s Perfect Home 🏡 Winston would thrive in a calm, patient home that understands he may need a little time to feel safe and settled. A predictable daily routine will help him continue to build confidence and succeed with house training. His ideal home includes: • A person or family who is gentle, patient, and affectionate • A home that values companionship and connection • Another friendly dog (optional, but he does well with canine friends) • Respectful children who understand giving a shy dog space at first • Someone willing to work slowly on leash confidence • A home where couch time and bedtime cuddles are welcome With patience, love, and consistency, Winston will blossom into a deeply loyal and affectionate companion. Not the Right Fit If… ❌ Winston may not be the best match if: • You’re looking for a high-energy, instantly outgoing dog • You need a dog who is fully leash-trained right away • You require crate training as a must-have • Your home is very loud, chaotic, or fast-paced without space for a dog to warm up gradually • You’re unable to provide routine, reassurance, and gentle guidance If you would like to meet this dog, please call Teri at 630-897-7454. The adoption fee is $275. Adoption fee includes: - microchip - spay/neuter - age appropriate vaccinations: Bordetella, DH(L)PP, rabies - heartworm preventive & flea/tick preventive - deworming

Elowen SH

Jack Russell Terrier Shepherd (Unknown Type)

Female, 4 mos

Rosemont, IL

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

The name Elowen means “elm tree,” a symbol of strength, protection, and gentle beauty — a perfect match for this sweet, playful girl. Elowen may be a little shy at first, but she warms up quickly and soon shows off her fun, goofy side. She loves to zoom around the house and will happily use you as her personal bumper to stop her momentum — so be ready for some playful drive-by cuddles! She adores her toys and is perfectly content sitting on the couch chewing on one while her brother and sister have an all-out wrestling match. After watching for a bit, she’ll jump in to play for a few minutes… then head right back to her toy like nothing happened. It’s the cutest balance of playful and independent. Elowen is very food and treat motivated, which makes her eager to learn, and she already goes into her crate when it’s time to eat — a great foundation for crate training and future routines. If you’re looking for a pup who is sweet, silly, playful, and happy entertaining herself (with occasional zoomies included), Elowen would love to find her forever family! Local adoption fee is $250 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)
