Story
My adoption fee was generously sponsored! Bailey is like sunshine; she lights up every room she walks in to. She is a sweet, mellow, and social girl. And don’t let the grey hair fool you, she is still young and spritely, she’s just a lady who is aging gracefully. She likes to say hi to everyone in the room, but she is very respectful and never jumps or barks. Bailey is also crate trained and enjoys having her own space; She will often go in her crate all on her own when wanting to take a nap. She enjoys going for her daily walks around the neighborhood and she is phenomenal on leash! Never pulls or barks at other people or animals; though she does give squirrels a mean glare, so they know who’s boss. She likes to spend the rest of the day chewing on her bone, napping, eating treats, and she especially loves cuddling with you; she loves to rest her head on your chest while she naps. She needs to be the only dog in the home, but she has meet cats and seems to do well with them. Bailey is the perfect dog for anybody looking for a well behaved new best friend.

Story
Meet Yakko, one of three adorable siblings who are ready to find their forever family! Estimated to be born June 4, 2026, Yakko is now about 11.5 pounds and has grown into a wonderful, active, curious, and silly puppy.  DNA testing revealed that Yakko is a true All American dog with 17 breeds detected, with his top 5 breeds being Boxer, Australian Shepherd, Staffordshire Terrier, German Shepherd, and Labrador Retriever. Yakko is still living up to his Animaniacs name, too! This little guy has plenty to say when he wants something and will actually "talk" to you to make sure his message is received. He's still one of the louder members of the trio, so a home without shared walls would probably be best for him. Yakko loves chasing his siblings, chewing on sticks, and, of course, food! His love of treats should make him a pretty easy guy to train. He's also become quite the cuddlebug and is always happy to show off his softer side. Yakko can go up the stairs but hasn't quite mastered coming back down yet. He's still a puppy and will need continued help with potty training, crate training, and basic obedience. His new family should be ready to help him learn and grow, and with his curiosity, silly personality, love of treats, and growing cuddlebug status, Yakko is going to be one fun little companion! His minimum adoption fee is $350 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. He has been neutered, 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).

Story
Meet Felix, a 10-year-old Labrador Retriever weighing approximately 85 pounds. This handsome gentleman has a calm, gentle nature and a quiet confidence that makes him an easy dog to love. While he may seem a little more serious than his buddy Oscar, don't be fooled. Felix has a beautiful smile of his own, especially once he's done concentrating on the treats! Felix has already mastered the art of being a loyal, loving companion. He's happiest spending time with his people, enjoying peaceful walks, and simply being part of the family. His easy-going, well-mannered personality would make him a wonderful addition to just about any home. Senior dogs have so much love left to give, and Felix is ready to spend his golden years surrounded by kindness, comfort, and companionship. All he needs is a cozy bed, a loving family, and a place to call home. Felix's adoption fee is $200. While Felix is available to be adopted on his own, he arrived at Wish Bone with his lifelong companion, Oscar. If you're able to welcome both sweet seniors into your family, their combined adoption fee is just $300. There is a $15 rabies transfer fee per dog for McLean County Residents. He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Story
Meet Oliver, a 5-year-old Labradoodle weighing 58 pounds. This happy boy may be a little shy when you first meet him, but he seems to warm up quickly once he gets comfortable. And if you happen to have some treats handy, you've got his attention—Oliver was the perfect little model during his photo session! Oliver reportedly knows to go to the door when he needs to go outside and is house-trained, though he'll likely need a little grace and patience as he learns the routine in a new home. He already knows "sit" and seems eager to please when treats are involved. We were told Oliver has done well with children 8 and older. We don't yet know how he is with dogs or cats, so those introductions will need to be handled thoughtfully. If you're looking for a sweet, happy companion who may take a moment to warm up but is ready to become your best friend, Oliver could be the perfect match. His minimum adoption fee is $400 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Story
All Pet Central Helps 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. After we review your completed survey, we will contact you by phone or email within three business days. 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. Please get back to us right away when we call or email regarding an application so that we can quickly connect using the process below: Select a pet and submit an online adoption survey. 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). Park in the parking lot and enter the facility. A PCH! representative will greet you and show you to the adoption room. Your new pet will be handed to you. 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. Empire St.) Parking lot and enter the store. We will be set up just inside the store entrance. Let us know you are here to pick up your pet! A PCH! representative will confirm your information and hand you your pet. We will take a "Happy Adoption Day” photo with your pet and family. If your adoption is scheduled at the Cat’s Meow Cafe: Navigate to PetSmart, park in the parking lot and enter the store. Locate a PCH! Representative at our adoption table and let them know you are picking up a Cat Cafe Cat. You will sign your final contract with your counselor and snap a picture of the completed screen. Head to the Cat’s Meow Cafe at 507 N. Hershey Rd and provide them with the snapshot of your final contract. They will get your cat and take a “Happy Adoption Day” photo with your pet and family. PCH! supports a 30-day no-fault return policy in which adopters are given the opportunity to find a better match. If we cannot provide advice/tools to keep a pet in the home we offer these options: Exchange for a pet that may be a better match** Receive a refund minus a $40 processing fee** With this approach, we can often turn mismatches into opportunities! Thank you, Pet Central Helps!

Story
Meet Oliver, a 5-year-old Labradoodle weighing 58 pounds. This happy boy may be a little shy when you first meet him, but he seems to warm up quickly once he gets comfortable. And if you happen to have some treats handy, you've got his attention—Oliver was the perfect little model during his photo session! Oliver reportedly knows to go to the door when he needs to go outside and is house-trained, though he'll likely need a little grace and patience as he learns the routine in a new home. He already knows "sit" and seems eager to please when treats are involved. We were told Oliver has done well with children 8 and older. We don't yet know how he is with dogs or cats, so those introductions will need to be handled thoughtfully. If you're looking for a sweet, happy companion who may take a moment to warm up but is ready to become your best friend, Oliver could be the perfect match. His minimum adoption fee is $400 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.
