If you are interested in adopting this animal, please do NOT click the Adopt Me button and instead reach out to the current owner directly via the email provided in the profile. As this is a Home-to-Home animal you are not required to fill out an Anti-Cruelty Society adoption application form.***Took a few weeks to get him out of his shell. The shelter shut him down a bit. Jett is a very friendly affectionate dog. he will want to be glued to you once you bond though! I think he will do best with another young dog that like to wrestle around because he lives for his dog park visits! I wasn't allergic with my last dog years ago but I have some developed some allergies which is making it difficult for me to keep him.Please reach out to stevekoc@yahoo.com for more information.

Story

Meet Taffy, a senior dog as sweet as her name suggests! She's a cuddly companion who enjoys playing just as much as quiet time on the couch. Taffy's playful and spirited nature shines through, with her age never slowing her down. As one of our Special Care pets, Taffy needs a bit of extra love. She's prone to ear infections and carries a little extra weight, but with regular check-ups and a balanced diet, these issues are easily managed. Taffy is house-trained and low-maintenance, perfect for anyone seeking a relaxed lifestyle. Despite her minor health needs, her love and companionship are boundless. Taffy is not comfortable in close contact with other dogs and would need to be the only animal in the home, which just means there's more of her for you to love! If you're looking for a furry friend to fill your home with joy, Taffy is the one. She's ready to shower you with unconditional love-she just needs a forever home where she can continue being her sweet, playful self. If Taffy sounds like the gal for you, come on down and meet her in person at our River North location!

He is high energy and chill in the evening. His birthday is 7/27/16, house trained and has never destroyed a thing at home. He gets anxiety with smaller kids if they are running or screaming inside of the house sometimes outside. He loves to sunbathe, walks and people. He has been okay with small dogs, he just needs to get walked first as an intro and he settles very well! He doesn't like other dogs to try to be the alpha or jump on him. He has not bit another dog but just shows his teeth if others dogs try to jump on him.I believe he would do best in an adult home.Please reach out to araselig824@gmail.com for more information.

Lupin

American Pit Bull Terrier Labrador Retriever

Male, Young

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Everyone's been going loco for Lupin! This young 50 pound Staffordshire Terrier mix was brought into our care as a stray. Poor Lou was found abandoned outside of a police station, and showed signs of living most of his puppy life in a crate. After a slow and steady dose of tender, love, and care at our facility, this guy has come out of his shell in a big way. Lupin is incredibly smart--he's learned how to open doors, he loves to play brain games and learn new tricks, he's house-trained, and he's one of the most dog social guys we have in our facility. Lupin is not very interested in going on walks, but if you're looking to play with a toy in the backyard, or snuggle on the couch inside (or play fun sniffing games! This guy loves to use his nose!) Lupin would be happy to make your acquaintance! If you're interested in meeting Lupin, be sure to fill out our adoption questionnaire today.
