Story
Plinky is an ultra sweet senior girl that is significantly hearing impaired, if not completely deaf. Plinky does great with humans and interacts well with dogs as long as no toys or food is around so for this reason, Plinky must be the only dog. She is reported to be potty, trained and rides well in the car. Plinky is very sweet, she loves to relax, and she walks well on a leash. She isn't super interested in play, and would be great for a family who is looking for a calm companion.

Story
2-year-old Athos is currently in a foster home, and so far he is loving it!His foster family says he has been a model dog in their home:"He is truly the best. He loves carpet.. likes to roll all around on it. Never begged for people food.. was amazing in the car.. we were worried because he never made a peep.. we kept checking on him.. never have we seen a dog be so good in the car. He loves playing ball with the boys. He has been on like 6 walks and is the best! We have had no issues at all. He heels and sits at the end of the streets before we cross a road he is doing great. My youngest took him on a walk and was nervous because there was a squirrel in front of us.. he told Athos to heel and they just walked right past the squirrel.. it was amazing!!! He never gets on furniture until we tell him up. We have had to take bones away from him and he is perfectly fine with it. He loves to sit at the door window and just watch the people going bye.. even when all the dogs on the street started a barking concert last night.. he still did not bark.. just sat here and watched back and forth with just one ear up ?? he is truly amazing!! And we are loving fostering him! Could not have asked for a better dog."He has undergone training and is looking for a family that will commit to not only him but to continuing the training he has been given as well.

Moodonna

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, Young
Pekin, IL
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Moodonna is an energetic happy dog, who has learned to trust that people are her friends in the time she has been with us. She knows how to sit, will stay, and is good on a leash after her initial excitement of being out and ready to go is abated. She has been exploring new areas around town to help build confidence in herself and the world. When meeting new people it is best to let her approach because her world has been small. She is easily bought with praise and a treat. She is good with vetting and toenail trims, likes to play tug, and knows when to drop, never getting your fingers by mistake. Moo is happy to lay or sit quietly beside you for a little downtime. She enjoys walking around the shelter and visiting her friends while they work. She enjoys belly rubs too. Moo is NOT a fan of cats, so her future home has to be feline-free. Moo has been with us a while so she will need a home that will be patient in letting her adjust to new surroundings, sounds, and expectations. A home that will let her adjust before exposing her to a lot of new people and new experiences until she settles.Moo weighs 48.2 poundsAdoption Fee: $100Estimated Date of Birth: 12/1/18Intake Reason: Transferred in from animal control with mom and littermatesAnimal will be spayed and up to date on vaccines, and microchipped prior to adoption.
