Story
Meet our sweet girl Dallas, Dallas was found dumped on the side of her road with her littermates. Her mom was dumped with her but sadly had been hit by a car and did not make it so the litter was left to fend for themselves. Luckily a good Samaritan found them, but they ended up in a shelter. No place for these puppies so rescue was found for them. At first, she was so scared of people, but she loves kisses and pets from her foster family. She will sit for a treat and is down for lots of belly rubs. She's doing great with house training. She knows and responds to 'crate-up'. She is pad trained and will go to the door to go outside. She loves to play with toys and dog chews.... she is intelligent, loyal, eager to please, loves her people, and easy to train. She'll make quick friends with anyone who’ll give her a belly rub. So, if you’re looking for a furry companion who will love you unconditionally and keep you on your toes, Dallas might be the one for you. Dallas would do great in a home with another dog to help her feel secure and someone she can play with. Older children would be okay, but we would prefer a home with no young children as everyone in the home needs to understand boundaries with puppies. We hope you'll give her a chance.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. **If you are interested in being considered for this dog, please be sure to complete an application directly on our website - not through a 3rd party service.* Welcome Hannah!  This 2 year old, 50 lb pitbull mix has raised her puppies (our EE litter) and is ready to find her very own forever home!   Hannah is housebroken and crate trained, does well on a leash and in the car.  She loves to be outside in the yard, go for walks and also just enjoys hanging out with her humans and watching tv on the couch.  Hannah has proven to do well with other dogs and kids, but has not been exposed to cats at this point.  She would love a yard to run around in.  This girl would do best in a single family home, so no apartments or condos please. Hannah’s foster mom says she is a smart, motivated and loving girl.     Hannah is heartworm positive and will require heartworm treatment (provided by the rescue) so potential adopters should be within a 50 mile radius of Elgin.   Any potential adopters will speak to a member of our medical team prior to any meet and greet to fully understand what Hannah’s treatment will entail.  Hannah is also not yet spayed, however she will be (rescue cost) once her heartworm treatment is completed.  Potential adopters should be willing to continue working on training with Hannah so she continues to be a great canine citizen. Mothers day is just around the corner, and Hannah would love to have a home of her own in time to celebrate!   Hannah’s adoption fee is $350 (Includes microchip and age appropriate vaccines) *HWMAR presents the information in these bios based on our foster observations and any information presented to us regarding prior living conditions, breed specifications.

Meet Sampson, a delightful, smiley 7-year-old Pit Bull Terrier mix who is young at heart and ready to find his perfect forever home! Despite his age, Sampson has a spirited personality and a zest for life that is truly infectious. While he may struggle with overarousal and anxiety during the first few days in a new environment, he quickly settles down and adapts well.

This gentle giant absolutely adores the affectionate touch of a caring hand and will gladly soak up all the love and attention you can give. His sweet disposition shines through, and he is known for his loving nature and big heart. Sampson is a pretty good walker and doesn't get bothered by too much.

With a bit of guidance and positive reinforcement, Sampson will surely become an excellent walking companion, enjoying the sights and sounds of the great outdoors. Currently weighing 110 pounds, Sampson could benefit from a weight management plan to ensure he stays in good health.

If you're looking for a loyal and affectionate companion who may need a little extra time to adjust to his new home, Sampson is the perfect match for you. His loving nature and youthful spirit make him a joy to be around, and his gentle demeanor will win your heart over in no time.

Story
Hey there, potential adopters! My name is Gomer, and I'm an 10-month-old Labrador Retriever mix eagerly looking for my forever home. As you can see from my pictures, I sport a striking black and white coat that perfectly complements my playful and lively personality. I may be young, but I've got boundless energy and a zest for life that will keep you on your toes! I'm always ready for fun and adventures. Whether it's a game of fetch, chasing after toys, or simply running around the yard, I'm up for any exciting activity you have in mind. I must admit, I can be a little rambunctious at times, but that's just because I'm overflowing with happiness and enthusiasm! With my big puppy eyes and wagging tail, I'm sure to bring smiles to your faces every day. I'm hoping to find a family that appreciates my spirited nature and can keep up with my energetic antics. I would thrive in a home where we can engage in fun training sessions, interactive play, and plenty of outdoor activities. A family that can provide me with the exercise and mental stimulation I need to be a well-rounded and happy pup would be the perfect match! Gomer is an all-star dog, and his adoption appointment includes a discussion with the training team, as well as a few enrichment goodies to help get you both off to a good start. To learn more about Gomer or to schedule an appointment to meet him, please email info@ahconnects.org (including your name and phone number), and the staff will be happy to assist you. Our dogs and puppies go home spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested (7 months and over), and up to date on core vaccines, heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives.
