Story
I'm the life of the paw-ty, the Queen of zoomies, and the ruler of hearts - they call me Queen, and for good reason! I'm a bundle of energy, an expert snuggler, a professional entertainer. I cannot wait to meet my forever person, and trust me, the wait has been longer than a dog's nap! It's not that I'm picky, I just like to take my time getting to know my humans. If I bark, it's just my way of saying, "Hey, I'm feeling a bit shy here!" Now, let's talk about my kingdom - the yard! It's officially mine, or so everyone says. Watch me zoom around like there's no tomorrow, soaking in the thrill of freedom. And when you step into my royal territory, be prepared for the royal treatment. I'll come over, give your feet and legs a good sniff, and if you've got a toy, we're already on the fast track to becoming besties. I've got this cool game called "touch." You put your hand out, say the magic word, and I'll nudge it with my nose. But here's the deal: I expect a treat, preferably a soft cookie or some cheese. I mean, a Queen deserves her rewards, right? So, how about it? Come join me in my yard, witness the epic zoomies, and let's become the dynamic duo everyone talks about. I might be a bit bossy with other dogs (I mean they're fine, I just don't want to live with them full-time), so a single-pet home would be my ideal kingdom (and I even have experience with that). Be my friend, and I promise to be the best friend you've ever had!

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, Adult
Riverwoods, IL
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Allie has been reading up on self-help books and taking lots of notes. She's thinking this year she should decorate her kennel with lots of those "Live, Laugh, Love" and "Failure is success in progress!" quotes. It just doesn't feel the same in a kennel versus a home. Still, we think she deserves an award for "Most Improved" this year! Allie has been putting in the work during her time with us and has made huge progress in her training. She is currently working on relaxing around new people and in new situations. She would LOVE a home to show off her skills in! Allie's ideal home would have grown up (or mostly grown up) humans and minimal visitors. She comes with support from both OOTS and Full Circle Dog training. After over 500 days of waiting (and learning!) Allie is SO ready to make 2024 the year she finds a home.

Story
Turbo is an active, fun guy who loves his people fiercely. He needs time to trust new people, but once he does, you've got a friend for life. Turbo loves training and has shown how smart he is during his time at the shelter. He is great at playing tug and knows to drop the tug when told and will grab it when you tell him to play again. What an awesome game~! He can sit on command and is working on laying down. He knows to lay at your side calmly when guests enter the room. All of this in the short time he has been at the shelter! Turbo wants you to forget the dating scene and take home a loyal guy like him!

Story
Meet Argon, a resilient 2-year-old dog with a heart full of courage and a spirit ready for a fresh start. Argon's journey began in the shelter as an abuse case, and while his past may have been challenging, his spirit remains unbroken. At first glance, it's evident that Argon has faced adversity. He arrived at the shelter grossly underweight, a testament to the hardships he endured. Despite his tough past, Argon carries himself with an air of strength and the ability to forgive. Argon is quick to warm up to people, and as trust develops, so does his true personality. With time, you'll see Argon's walls come down, revealing a dog filled with love and a longing for companionship. Despite the hardships he's faced, Argon is ready to embark on a new chapter and leave the shadows of the past behind. Argon is more than a survivor; he's a symbol of resilience and the capacity for healing. As he joins his forever family, he brings with him a promise of unwavering loyalty and a heart eager to experience the love and care that he has always deserved.
