Story
If you like them BIG and floppy, Simba fits that detail. This dude was a loved family member but they had to relocate and left him with another friend. Unfortunately, they could not see him any longer due to no fault of his own and he needed a complete restart. This is a 3 year old baby who has never met a stranger. He is good with all humans and loves all the humans of all sizes. Due to his massive size, he would do best with kids over ten and is fine with cats. He is still learning dogs are great after never having socialized with them, but he is taking life in strides. Come meet this hunk today!

Story
Shazam is a 6 month Akita mix. He was found as a stray and we are getting estimates on his breed and size. Right now we believe he is going to be a 60 to 100 pound dog. He hasn't grown into his paws yet and the vet believes he will be on the bigger end and says he will have a growth spurt in the next 4 to 5 months. He loves to give hugs. He is learning sit and down. He has a lot of energy. We recommend a fenced in backyard yard and long walks. He does fetch. He is working on crate training. If you would like to meet this dog, please call Teri at 630-897-7454. The adoption fee is $300. Adoption fee includes: - microchip - spay/neuter - age appropriate vaccinations: Bordetella, DH(L)PP, rabies - heartworm preventive & flea/tick preventive - deworming

Story
Dakota is a handsome name, kind of a "rugged" kind of name, right?? I am kind of a REFINED RUGGED kind of boy! NOT!! I am a snuggle bug looking for tummy scratches....I willl MELT for one!! Here is what one of our amazing fosters have to say about Dakota...."Super freaking sweet, loves loves belly rubs, is very strong when you walk him but listens well. VERY treat motivated and knows sit down paw and i just taught him roll over yesterday but its a work in progress 😝. Super playful, he will pounce around you and then roll over for belly rubs and absolutely melts for the belly rubs and kisses" I love playing and running with my doggy friends, however, I can lay at your feet very sweetly to beg for your attention. I am kind of like a "reverse" planter as well. I mean, you plant it and i will un-plant it for you :D I won't do it often, just when I want your attention and I am outside alone. So see?? you have great control over that urge! So I am a food and toy lover too, I eat out of a slow feeder bowl because wolfing down my food is not an option! I am learning all things toys and am actually learning how to bring the ball BACK after you throw it. I am a smart and very sweet boy. I do absolutely have a prey drive so no kitties for small furry mammals around me please. I am fully potty trained and great in a crate. Now i just need you to adopt me to complete my circle of life. Now, before you go all "Lion King" on me, just know that I will be your bestest buddy forever!! I am two VERY loyal breeds and once I know you are my family, you will have my unending love :) Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Meet Frosty, a striking black-and-white Husky with unforgettable icy blue eyes and an equally beautiful personality. Born around December 15, 2024, Frosty is still very much a puppy and already showing all the classic Husky charm—curious, energetic, and full of life. He’s the kind of dog who greets the world with enthusiasm and would thrive in a home that enjoys staying active and engaged. Whether it’s long walks, playtime in the yard, or learning new things, Frosty is ready to be your adventure partner. Despite his high energy, Frosty is incredibly sweet and affectionate. He loves people and enjoys being part of the action, making him a wonderful companion for someone who wants a dog that’s both loving and lively. Frosty will do best in a home that understands the needs of an intelligent, active breed and can provide him with structure, exercise, and continued training as he grows. He will need a cat-free home, as he’s not compatible with feline friends. Frosty is looking for a committed adopter who can keep up with his energy level and help him grow into the amazing dog he’s meant to be. In return, he promises loyalty, fun, and plenty of love. If you’re ready for a sweet, spirited Husky puppy to add excitement and companionship to your life, Frosty may be the perfect match. Apply to adopt today: sayvanimals.org/adopt (PLEASE NOTE: Despite what PetFinder, AdoptAPet and other aggregation software systems state - the first step is to submit an application via the link above, NOT send a message through their platforms. Thank you!)
