Aurora, IL
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Introducing Cairo, the most majestic land manatee this side of the Mississippi! This senior pit bull mix is part explorer, part couch potato, and 100% certified house hippo. With a body built like a baked potato and a heart made of marshmallows, Cairo is on a quest for a forever home where he can roam the yard, sniff every bush like it holds ancient secrets, and then plop down like a sack of cuddles. Found wandering the streets with his walrus waddle and soulful eyes, his original humans never came, but he hasn’t let that dim his tail-wagging optimism. He’s sweet, playful, and goofy in all the best ways—think: zoomies followed by snoring. If your castle is in need of a roly-poly royal, Cairo is ready to claim the throne (and your couch).

Story
Meet Charlie: The Family Dog You Didn’t Know You Needed (But Totally Do) Okay, here's the tea—Charlie is a two-year-old Boxer/Hound mix who ended up in need of a new home thanks to a tale as old as time: baby enters stage left, dog exits stage right. Yeah, it’s that classic “we had a baby and now we can’t keep up with the dog” situation. Their loss? 100% your gain. Charlie is a lovable goofball with a heart of gold and energy for days. She’s playful, spunky, and thrives in a home where zoomies are encouraged and tug-of-war is a sport. She’d do best with active humans or other dogs who can keep up with her enthusiasm for life. She's not aggressive at all—just sometimes forgets she's not a lapdog and may bump into tiny humans when she's excited. (Who among us hasn’t bulldozed a coffee table in our joy?) The good news? She’s spayed, fully vetted, up to date on all shots, microchipped, good with cats, and ready to be your new best friend. Basically, the hard work’s been done—she’s ready to move in and start living her best life. Looking for a playmate for your current pup? A hiking buddy? A dog who brings joy, laughs, and probably a little bit of chaos (the fun kind)? Charlie’s your girl. If you want to meet this amazing pup, email Jenn and Hannah @ ruffners1880@gmail.com Adoption fee: $275. Charlie’s looking for a fresh start—maybe with you. She’s got the love, the training, and the wiggly butt. All that’s missing is her forever family. Adoption fee includes: - microchip - spay/neuter - age appropriate vaccinations: Bordetella, DH(L)PP, rabies - heartworm preventive & flea/tick preventive - deworming

Story
Are you looking for your ride or die? Look no further. Rider is here to apply for the position. He is a 2.5 year old Boxer mix that weighs in just shy of 70 pounds. Rider has been looking for his forever home for awhile. He was found as a stray October of 2023 in Southern Indiana. He eventually made his way up to Rover Rescue. He has gone through 2 knee surgeries which has delayed finding his finding his forever home. He is ready to settle down. We have him on a joint supplement to help with arthritis from his surgeries. He is also on a single protein diet and probiotics due to a sensitive stomach. He has been doing well with these though. Rider does need an adult only home. He also needs a dog savvy owner. He likes to see what he can get away with and needs someone to continue working on his manners. He has come a long way in his time with Rover Rescue. Rider loves car rides. He thinks there is nothing better than sticking his head out the window and feeling the wind in his face. We do seatbelt him in for his safety. Rider also loves walks. After his knee surgeries we are building up his endurance. He does tend to get excited and pull, but minds the gentle leader. Rider is living with 2 smaller dogs. He loves to romp and play with his foster brother. He respects his crabby older sister. He does need slow introductions. He can sometimes get fussy with new friends at events. We think it may be a little leash reactivity. He may do best with a submissive female. We have noticed some prey drive with Rider and would recommend a home without cats no cats or small animals. Rider is crated while his family is away and at night. He will go in willingly for treats. Sometimes he may sing a little song when his family first leaves, but will settle down. Treat toys sometimes help too. Rider is fully house trained and has not had any accidents. Rider is overall a pretty laid back guy. At night he loves nothing more than snuggling on the couch with his people. Rider may seem a little rough around the edges at first but will be a loyal companion with some work. He wants to please his people. Please give this guy a chance. If you would like to meet him, please call Annie at 815-685-0746. His adoption fee is $275. Adoption fee includes: - microchip - spay/neuter - age appropriate vaccinations: Bordetella, DH(L)PP, rabies - heartworm preventive & flea/tick preventive - deworming
