Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
A humane investigation is how I came to Save-A-Pet. My home neglected me so I was a little rough around the edges at first. Here I’m a happy big boy that loves having fun with toys in a play yard. The amazing Canine Care staff is saying that I’m quite a playful goofball, always ready to climb into people’s lap for some loving. Oh and they also say that I have one of the best smiles around here! I do have some medical issues and I'm therefore also available as a permanent foster. This means that Save-A-Pet will continue to coordinate and pay for the related vet care. I'm of course also available for adoption.

Story
**I am available for Permanent Foster or Adoption** I originally came in as part of a humane investigation. My so-called family had left me chained to a fence in the midst of a cold spell. Needless to say, I was so excited when I landed at Save-A-Pet. I know I may look scary to some people with my “butchered” ears, but I ended up finding a home last year. Unfortunately, my guardian is getting deployed overseas. They described me as an easy-going and loving dog, very laid-back that enjoyed taking naps on the couch. Car rides are fun too and I also know all the basic commands. In the evening, I turn into a lap dog. Looking for a gentle dog, ready to love you with all her heart, then ask about me! I have some special needs, so I am available as a permanent foster. This means that Save-A-Pet will continue to coordinate and pay for the vet care related to my condition. I’m of course also available for adoption.

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Adult
Round Lake Heights, IL
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Iverson is such a good boy. He is really good with kids, very gentle with smaller kids. He is very good with all other pets. We have introduced him to other dogs, cats, a ferret, a hamster. He listens really well. He aims to make his owner proud so if he does something wrong, he only has to be told once to stop. He is house broken. He knows a few tricks. He sits with a snap of a finger. When hand feeding or giving treats, he is gentle when you tell him to be. He is truly such an amazing companion and it saddens me to have to rehome him. I really want him to go to a good loving home. All you have to do is meet him and I promise you, you will fall inlove.

Meet Harrison Ford! This handsome boy never stops smiling. If you are looking for a highly intelligent companion with a big heart to always make you laugh, Harrison is the goofy guy for you! Harrison loves nothing more than spending time with people. Some of his favorite activities are sunbathing (absolute favorite), playing monkey-in-the-middle (only if he’s in the middle), smart toys, watching human reality TV, and his favorite snack is blueberries.  He is looking for a forever home where he can be the only dog and a family that can manage his autoimmune condition which he receives medication for. Harrison has been in foster care at Reach Rescue since he was a 4 month old puppy and is holding out hope that someone out there is willing to take a chance on him! He has the biggest heart to give in return. If Harrison sounds like the dog for you, complete an adoption application online to schedule a meeting!   Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 11:00-3:00pm at 372 Townline Road in Mundelein, IL 60060 to meet our adoptable animals in person.

Jasmine

Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 1 yr 1 mo
Mundelein, IL
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Jasmine is a beautiful, shy girl who is already spayed, crate trained, and working on her potty training. She is good with other dogs and may even do well with cats. While she wants to play with canine friends, she’s still learning how to feel confident around them. Jasmine is very timid at first and can seem almost frozen in new situations. She needs a few days to warm up, but once she feels safe, her affectionate side blossoms. She absolutely loves attention—sometimes a little too much—and is currently working on building independence so she can feel secure even when she’s not being doted on. She does not appreciate strangers invading her space and needs someone who will respect her boundaries while helping her learn to trust. With patience, consistency, and gentle guidance, this sweet girl will continue coming out of her shell. Jasmine will thrive in a home with an adopter who has some experience with shy or anxious dogs or someone willing to learn. She’s eager for love, structure, and reassurance—and with the right person, she has the potential to become a truly devoted companion. If you’re ready to help a sensitive soul grow in confidence, Jasmine may be the perfect match.   Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 11:00-3:00pm at 372 Townline Road in Mundelein, IL 60060 to meet our adoptable animals in person.

Story
$250 will include crate, bowl, leash and some toys.I adopted Payton three years ago when I was working from home, but with a job change, I’m not able to spend enough time with her.She is a loving pup that loves going on walks, playing fetch/tug of war and enjoys warm weather.She is great around other people, after the first five minutes where she is so excited seeing new people.She is a strong dog as most of her weight is muscle, so she’s a ‘small’ 65 pound dog.She is a calm and relaxed dog. She is house trained and crate trained.At doggy daycare she was attacked by a dog once and then she attacked another dog three weeks later, so I pulled her out of doggy daycare. She has been fine around other dogs on walks, but I haven’t had her off leash around other dogs since.She has been around my niece and nephew, so she is good around kids.
