Story
Millie aka Potato aka Loaf aka Butterball is the most wonderful girl. She walks perfect on and off leash, does not mess in her kennel and does not show any interest in cats. She doesn’t beg food from kids and she gets along well with calm dogs. Millie was reported to have been thrown from a car and left on the side of the road and we just can’t figure out why. Millie desperately needs a diet and some walks. Come down to Macoupin County Animal control and give her a few squeezes and possibly take her home. Our hours are Weekdays 10-2, closed Tuesday, and Saturday 8-12

Story
Companion Seeking Peace Nami is a soulful survivor who deserves the absolute best life has to offer. I rescued her after she was abandoned at a local park. I successfully tracked down her previous owner, but he officially forfeited ownership. Became clear that Nami was looking for a fresh start with someone who truly values her. Why Nami is Special: Gentle Soul: She has a heart of gold and has been wonderfully patient and gentle around my newborn niece. Versatile: She currently lives peacefully with a variety of dogs, ranging from a 10lb small fry to a 70lb+ male. The Sweetest Babe: She is truly one of the most affectionate dogs I’ve ever encountered. Ideal Match: Nami has been through a lot of transition & "big" life changes. She deserves a home rooted in kindness and compassion. would thrive as an only dog (to soak up all the love) or with one calm companion. I’m surviving a situation where I can't care for her the way she deserves & my only goal is to find her the peace she deserves

Duke

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Adult
Collinsville, IL
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Duke is a good boy who needs a home where he can get the attention he needs. We moved into a smaller house/yard, then had a baby, and Duke has been having a hard time since. He needs a home with other dogs to play/be with. Someone who can be patient with him and give him the amount of attention he requires. He is good with children and other pets, cats and dogs. Our baby loves him. He is a sweet cuddle bug and fierce protector of the house. My problem is Duke has very bad separation anxiety. He chews up things if he feels confined when alone and will hurt himself trying to escape a crate. We love him but I feel we aren't meeting his needs anymore.
