Story
Meet Margot – or as her foster family lovingly calls her, “Sweet Lady Margot” – the hidden gem everyone has been missing out on! At around 2 years old, Margot has already mastered all the hard stuff—she’s fully housebroken, crate trained, walks like a pro on a leash, and has fantastic house manners. While the puppies steal all the attention, Margot just sits there with her big smile and silky, seal-colored fur thinking, “Why deal with all that chewing, potty training, and chaos when you could have ME?” She knows “sit,” is working on “stay” and “leave it,” and loves showing off how smart she is. Margot also has a favorite cow toy that she proudly carries around like her own emotional support cow—it’s the cutest thing ever! Margot is wonderful with adults and children alike, making her a great fit for just about any family. With dogs, she prefers slow introductions, but once she warms up, she’s all in—she and her foster dog sibling are now best buds. Margot is the perfect mix of playful sidekick and professional snuggler. Whether you’re heading out for a walk or curling up on the couch, she just wants to be by your side. She’s sweet, silly, easygoing, and basically the whole package—how she hasn’t had a single meet-and-greet yet is beyond us! Whoever scoops up Margot is going to hit the jackpot. Our standard adoption fee is $375 cash or check and $385 credit card ($10 processing fee). . It includes spay/neuter when age appropriate at our participating vets, age appropriate core vaccinations, fecal testing, deworming, flea and tick preventative,1st vet visit at one of our participating vets, and micro-chipping. We must have an application, conduct a phone interview, and meet your entire family to approve an adoption. Applications will not be reviewed unless fully completed.

Story
Meet Baloo- Your Local Squirrel Patrol If you are looking for a cuddly, lovable, potato Baloo is the guy for you!! He is much more beyond the color and shape of an Idaho potato, though. Baloo adores people and enjoys to spend his time around them. His warm, brown eyes are a reflection of the warmth he will bring to your heart. Baloo loves to give kisses and believes that there is no limit to giving love. Baloo doesn't mind the occasional hike, and enjoys a nice long neighbor walk in the morning sun. He is more than happy to people watch at the park, or on the front porch. But beware of squirrels! Even when he is "off-duty" Baloo is always on squirrel patrol! Baloo is house-trained, knows his basic manners, and an eager student. Baloo prefers to be an only pup as he gets jealous of sharing attention. He also doesn't like to share his food or chews (he promises that he isn't selfish, just particular of sharing) If Baloo sounds like the guy for you, he would love to meet you! Baloo's Favorite Things: Quiet time outside Shredding cardboard boxes Scritches from his human friends Cues That Baloo Knows: Sit Down Touch Stay Come No Off He has been exposed to a crate, but finds them rather scary Baloo is an All-Star dog! His adoption comes with some extra benefits at time of adoption. Their adoption appointment includes a discussion with our Training Team, and they will go home with their very own no-pull-harness and a few enrichment goodies to help get them off to a good start! To schedule an appointment to meet Baloo, email info@ahconnects.org (please include your name and phone number), and the staff will be happy to help you! Our dogs and puppies go home spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested (7 months and over), and up to date on core vaccines, heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives. Their adoption also includes a free-vet exam at one of our participating veterinarians. Ask fosters@ahconnects.org about fostering Baloo, while he waits for his forever home!

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meet Kira 🐾 Kira was adopted in Champaign while I was attending the University of Illinois. When I moved back home, she adjusted well and got along with my Jack Russell at first. However, due to her size and playful energy, she sometimes overwhelms him, and my family feels it’s best to find her a home where she can play freely. Kira is a very sweet and gentle dog who loves to nap, spend time outdoors, and cuddle. She’s calm inside the house and enjoys relaxing next to her person. It breaks my heart to rehome her, but I’m hoping to find someone who can give her the space, love, and attention she deserves. Ideal Home: • Someone with space for her to play safely • No small or reactive dogs • A loving, patient owner who enjoys both playtime and naps Kira truly is a loving companion who will bring a lot of warmth and joy to her new family. 💕

Story
Kane is a 6-year-old lovable guy with a gentle soul and a playful spirit. He’s currently managing a recently repaired ACL, but that doesn’t stop him from enjoying life — especially when it comes to toys, treats, and spending time with his favorite humans. One of Kane’s favorite things to do is show off his toys (or his beloved bully sticks) before tossing them around with delight. It’s like he’s saying, “Look what I’ve got!” before diving into playtime or snack time with pure joy. Kane would thrive in a home where someone is around more often than not — he’s a real people dog who loves companionship, affection, and being part of the daily routine. He’s got a cuddly side too, and once he's comfortable with you, you’ll have a loyal snuggle buddy for life. With a little TLC, light exercise, and a comfy place to rest, Kane is ready to be the loving, goofy companion you didn’t know you were missing.

Story
Meet Kokomo Joe! Looking for a big, lovable goofball to brighten your days? Look no further—Kokomo Joe is here! This 80-85+ lb mixed breed boy may have had a rough start in Texas, but he's ready to leave his past behind and find a forever home filled with love and belly rubs. Kokomo Joe's story is heartbreaking—he was abandoned and starved when his previous owner was incarcerated, leaving him to fend for himself while his housemates were fed. When he first arrived, he was painfully thin, with every rib and his hip bones showing. He also had some food aggression, but who could blame him after all he'd been through? Thankfully, with regular meals and love, he now understands he’ll never go hungry again. He’s no longer protective of his food and hasn’t shown any signs of food aggression since. Despite his past, Kokomo Joe’s spirit shines bright! He’s a true fun-loving goober who doesn’t realize his own size. Whether he’s hopping around like Tigger or cuddling up as if he’s a tiny lap dog, this big guy will keep you smiling. His crate and house manners are spot-on—zero accidents here! He’s even learned to move his crate across the floor, proving he’s as strong as he is sweet. Kokomo Joe gets along with other dogs with proper introductions and would thrive in a home that can continue his training and give him the structure he needs. His ideal family will embrace his goofy, big-hearted nature and help him become the best boy he can be. If you’re ready to welcome this big, bouncy cuddle bug into your life, Kokomo Joe is ready to meet you! Our standard adoption fee is $375 cash or check and $385 credit card ($10 processing fee). .
