Story
This handsome hunk is Pluto. He could certainly win America's strongest dog competition. But don't let that fool you, he does have some leash manners. Pluto's motto is "anything you can do I can do too". As a deaf dog Pluto doesn't let it stand in the way of living life to the fullest. Pluto needs someone who will commit to proper training so that he can be his best self. We highly encourage you to research training deaf dogs before you fill out an application. While it may not necessarily be harder, it is certainly different. At this time, we are still trying to determine if he would be good with other dogs. Because he is still working on himself, tiny humans wouldn't be recommended. Pluto is estimated to be about 3 years old. **PLEASE NOTE: We only do meet and greets with dogs by appointment. To meet any dog, you will need to apply and be approved first! **To start the adoption process, please complete our online adoption application at our website http://www.henrycountyhumanesociety.org. We will contact you once your application is approved and set up a time to come and meet Pluto. Filling out an application and meeting Pluto doesn't mean you are required to adopt if you feel it is not a good fit for you.

Peoria, IL
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meet Phoenix, he is beautiful 3 year old house hippo that doesn't mind dressing up in Rubber Ducky pajamas. Phoenix recently lost his home, no fault of his own however this has left him interviewing new humans. He is house trained, crate trained, good with kids and other dogs. He will walk on a leash but is strong in the beginning pulling, but eventually settles in. He does fine being left for 8 hours while his foster mom works and keeps his crate clean. He is too interested in cats, so we are looking for a home with no cats or small animals. Because of his blocky headed breed, we will require you to own your home, no rentals as we don't want him to wind up homeless again. Phoenix's $300 adoption fee includes his neuter, vaccines, heartworm test and prevention, flea/tick prevention, and microchip registration.

Story
Say cheese Cinnamon! Oh, this silly girl with those ears!! Cinnamon's new favorite game is chasing the kitties. No harm is done upon catching them...she is just always looking for someone to play with! This girl will play all day and keep her foster fur siblings (canine and feline) on their toes. When she's had her fill of playing, she will crawl up beside you and cuddle in. Miss Cinnamon is 6-months-old. She is a HUGE fan of belly rubs! She does not mind her kennel but when it's time to go in, she likes to disappear (I mean, who wants to be confined when there are fur siblings to climb upon). She's a puppy in progress at potty training--most of the time she will whine or go to the door when she has to go, but kiddos make mistakes. Cinnamon is very much a people person! Her adoptive family will be loved above and beyond by this sweet girl. If you are interested in adopting this pup, please fill out an application, using the link below. Please specify which dog you are interested in. Applications without a specific dog, or otherwise incomplete, will not be considered. Adoption fee is $425. Includes spay/neuter, current vaccines, and microchipping. https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ITAV/Dog For more pictures and information on this pup, please visit our website at https://www.ittakesavillage.dog/adopt

Story
Tauro is doing very well in his foster home! His foster mom says: "If you're looking for a dog to give you as much affection as you could want, look no further! Tauro is hands down the most loving dog we've ever met. We have zero complaints about Tauro; he gives kisses constantly, is a professional cuddler, walks well on a leash, and has a huge personality. This boy is funny and after over 200 days in the shelter he deserves someone who will happily accept the love he has to give. He gets 2 types of seizure medications and takes them with food wonderfully, no pill pocket or convincing needed. Don't let his well managed condition prevent him from having a home."This smile and personality is an overall win! Tauro is on seizure medication that has been well managed while here at the shelter, and in foster. He'll be an excellent companion. Apply today!
