Story
UPDATE! Forge aka "Forged in Fire" is NOW AVAILABLE! We are searching for just the right home for this sweet boy who has been through so much. He is now out of his leg bandage and while he is still on antibiotics, and has topical medications on the leg, he is healed enough to go home. He has also started treatment for lyme disease that we found out he contracted at some point before receiving him and he is doing great. Forge has been neutered and has gained 10 lbs since his arrival (he is currently 45 lbs) but needs to gain more in a home environment. His adoption fee is $150, and includes all of his treatment to date, heartworm and tick borne testing and bloodwork, neuter, and microchip, as well as vaccinations. He is heartworm negative. Please note that Forge is not yet back at the shelter but we are beginning to take applications for his forever home. They can be submitted via email at animalcontrol@Kendallcountyil.gov, and can be found at the following link: https://www.kendallcountyil.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/26/638605331546270000 Please call 630-553-9256 if you have any questions! For those who do not know Forge's story, he was found abandoned with a blanket on the side of the road on Route 126 in Yorkville. He was emaciated, only weighing 35 lbs with a necrotic, sloughing leg wound from what appears to be old dog bite wounds. It was covered in a bandage. Forge has been with our veterinary partner hospital since April 10th and is doing much better. We were able to save his leg and begin treatment for lyme disease and get him on the road to recovery. Forge was a case of egregious cruelty and neglect, but has persevered and deserves the best from here on out!

If you want to add a little unconditional love to your life...I am right here!! I’m an active, fun loving and sweet 12week old Pittie/Boxer mix puppy! I am in search of my forever family and home that will make me the best girl I can be. I am the missing piece to completing your wonderful family. Investing your love into me will be so worth it!! I am good with respectful children and other animals. I was relinquished to the shelter due to no fault of my own. I was rescued from an overcrowded rural shelter. Please add a lotta unconditional love, sloppy kisses, tail wags and endless happiness to your family and contact jbrradopt@gmail.com for an adoption application and bring me home. I will come with the works (Neutered, up to date on everything, micro chipped, fecal, heart worm tested if age appropriate, heartworm, flea and tick prevented, a free vet visit and medical insurance). What more could a new family ask for? Love and Kisses, Swiss Miss

Hercules is a 100lb lap dog with a big heart. Hercules is giant cuddle bug, he's a little dog in a big dogs body. He's a little clumsy falling off couches and walking into walls. Hercules loves all humans, especially sitting on top of them, he's very tolerant making him good with children. He is crate trained and is mastering basic commands. He's a little rough around the edges but, with great potential, with a little training he'll be a very good boy. Hercules is a young, playful dog who needs lots of exercise and enrichment. He loves playing with toys of all kinds! Especially toys made for extreme chewing

Story
If you want to add love and nubby tail wags to your family, I’m ready and waiting. I am an adorable and sweet 9 month old Beabull (Eng Bulldog/Beagle) little boy who is looking for my Happily Ever After. Beabulls The Beabull is a medium-sized designer cross between the Beagle and the English Bulldog breeds. Loyal, curious, and loving, these pups inherited some of the best qualities from both of their parents. The Beabull doesn’t go by many other names, though some people might just call them Beagle-Bulldog mixes. These cute pups are quite versatile and can adapt to both apartment living or a home with a backyard to run in. Though their short, stout body types may lead you to believe they are lazy, these dogs will get bursts of energy and enjoy a game of fetch or a trip to the dog park. The Beabull bonds well with their owner and every member of the family, and they’re fit for either single- or multi-person family households. These loving pups are protective and playful, and they can be the perfect companion for you. I am the missing piece to completing your wonderful family. Investing your love into me will be so worth it!! I am good with children and other animals. I was rescued and am enjoying my foster home while waiting for you. Please add a lotta unconditional love, sloppy kisses, tail wags and endless happiness to your family and contact adoptions@wagginghearts.org for an adoption application and bring me home. I will come with the works (Neutered, up to date on everything, micro chipped, fecal, heart worm tested if age appropriate, heartworm, flea and tick prevented, a free vet visit and medical insurance). What more could a new family ask for? Love and Kisses, Rigby
