Story
Meet Estelle, a gentle little soul with a heart full of quiet love and a soft spot for cozy companionship. She's a 12 year old Pug mix who weighs about 18 pounds. This sweet senior is the kind of dog who doesn’t ask for much, just a warm place to land, a kind human nearby, and a comfy spot to curl up at the end of the day. Estelle is currently settling into foster life and making steady progress with house training. She’s learning her routine and happily heads outside when given the chance, though she’s still figuring out how to communicate her needs. Since she’s deaf, she experiences the world in her own beautifully unique way, using her voice and body language to connect. She may bark to get your attention, but she’s already learning that gentle patience and consistency go a long way. This lovely lady is a professional sidekick. She enjoys following her person from room to room and would be more than happy to claim a spot in your lap when invited. She also does wonderfully in her crate and has been transitioning to sleeping peacefully on a dog bed nearby, always wanting to be close to her people. Estelle has a low-key lifestyle and is perfectly content with short outings in a fenced yard where she can explore at her own pace. She’s not asking for long hikes or busy adventures, just a safe space to wander and sniff. She coexists well with other calm dogs and would likely do best with a gentle companion or in a quieter home environment. Because of her deafness and easygoing nature, Estelle would thrive in a home with older, respectful children or adults who understand her need for a calm, predictable space. She may need to be fed separately to avoid any food mix-ups, but she’s otherwise a very easy houseguest. Estelle is the kind of dog who quietly changes your world. She won’t demand the spotlight, but before you know it, she’ll have claimed a permanent place in your heart. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion to share slow mornings and peaceful evenings, Estelle is ready to be your girl. Her minimum adoption fee is $200 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.March 26, 2026, 9:21 am

The wonderful Canine Care staff is helping me deal with the loss of my guardian and they are giving me extra loving. I lived with a cat and I also get along with dogs. I love walks, that’s the perfect way to get some fresh air, discover new smells and even bark at the wind. I’m quite affectionate so always ready to get some petting or relax on the couch with you. Nights are lonely without a family so what about me being able to sleep in my own home tonight?
