Story
When Christian came to us in late September, he was suffering hip pain due to a deformed femur-head. Veterinarians at the UI Small Animal Clinic determined he was a good candidate for an FHO surgery (Femoral Head Osteotomy). Christian had the surgery and went into foster care for physical therapy and recovery. He is now fully recovered and doing great! Christian was a real joy for the foster parents as well. He is a very good dog and loves to cuddle with his humans. You can see photos and videos of Christian in his foster home on the Pups-is-Pups Facebook page: Facebook.com/pupsispups. Come out and meet him; he is a real sweetheart!

Story
Cocoa is an American Staffordshire Terrier mix born on 10/17/2025 and currently weighs 13.2 pounds. She’s as sweet as her name suggests and the most playful of the bunch. Cocoa adores toys, especially anything she can play tug with, and she may even try to recruit your pant legs into the game. She’s full of joyful puppy energy and keeps herself busy with toys, games, and sibling play sessions. Cocoa is a big puppy expected to become a large adult dog, so she’ll thrive in a home excited to keep up with her energy and guide her through training as she grows. Her minimum adoption fee is $350 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Story
Angel is an American Staffordshire Terrier mix born on 10/17/2025 and currently weighs 15.3 pounds. She’s the friendliest of the litter and already showing how smart she is. Angel is a bit gentler than her siblings and less “baby shark” when it comes to puppy nibbles. She loves interacting with people and becomes a total lovebug when she’s ready to cuddle. Angel is a big puppy expected to grow into a large adult dog, and she’ll do best with a family eager to continue her training and help her grow into a confident, well-mannered companion. Her minimum adoption fee is $350 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.
