Blu is a 2 year old American Staffordshire Terrier mix I got her when she was 8 weeks old. She is house trained. She is such a happy dog and is very well with other animals, she rarely bark and is not aggressive. I can’t keep her because I am expecting a baby in may and my apartment is too small for her.

I'm the result of a litter from an unspayed mom. Just a youngster that is wanting nothing more then a loving home. With Valentine's Day right around the corner, I would love to be your lil cupid, shooting my LOVE arrow right into your heart. I'm such a sweetie that it won't take long to have you wrapped right around my paw!! I'm only 7 months old, an active playful and adorable pup ready to have a blast with my new family. Let's get ready...for everything!! Neighborhood strolls, nature hikes, camping trips or trips to town, it's all fun stuff for me! I come in at about 38lbs and shouldn't get a whole lot bigger at my adult weight. What a pawsome size for all those fun activities and action packed adventures. But guess what? There's still plenty of room for you on the couch so we can get our snuggles on!! I've got a very sweet and submissive demeanor that will make for me being a great family addition!! I love people both tall and small and I do great with the other foster pups here. I'm working on my house training skills and am doing really good with it, knowing how to use the doggie door when I need to go out. Are you looking for the sweetness factor along with the energy level to keep up with all your activities? Oh my, you just found me!

I'm the result of a litter from an unspayed mom. Just a youngster that is wanting nothing more then a loving home. I got my name from the Old French origin meaning 'good company' and from the Mario bros video game as the loveable fire breathing Koopa. I can't actually breathe fire but I am quite loveable and I do make for great company. I'm only 7 months old, an active playful and adorable pup ready to have a blast with my new family.

Story
WE ARE A TX BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application found at haydudeequine.org Bunni - You are the bridge between what was and what will be, my pathway to a new life! Bunni is my name and hopping around having a good ole time is my game, not to mention my ears that look like they belong on a bunny!! I had found myself locked up in the doggie slammer thinking I was gonna be doing 10 to life. But fortunately for me I got myself a reprieve. It was pretty darn scary in there and I still am a little nervous with new situations and loud noises but I'm still a very happy happy gal, always wearing a smile on my face!! I'm finding out this hopping around, getting the zoomies and in general just having a good ole time is really the bomb!! With my scary start I would probably do best in a quieter adult only home. I get along very well with my foster sibling having her to help me gain confidence and showing me the ropes of family home life. I do have a higher prey drive and would need to be in a cat and rodent type pet free home. I am a very smart lil pup that has mastered some commands already and the doggie door! I would love to have someone continue to teach me lots and lots of new things. I am a master at puzzle games and am so proud to show you when I get one completed. They are one of my favoritest, along with my stuffies and cuddles with YOU!! I'm around a year and a half of age and come in at the 49ish lb range. That's a fabulous size for outdoor adventures and I love adventures and they usually involve car rides!! YIPPEE! Long walks, hiking (nothing better then putting my nose to the ground and going on a 'sniffari') and I could even make a great jogging pawtner, oh my, let's go!! I am medium to high energy and would love having an active person to share all my ready to go-ness (see, I am smart, I just made up my very own word)!! Are you an adventurous outdoorsy person that needs a special someone to share in your quality time? A constant in your life to be by your side whether it's inside or out? A BFF that is loyal to a fault? Hey, hey that sounds just like ME!!!!

Meet Keiko!! WE ARE A TX BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application found at haydudeequine.org Keiko - You are the bridge between what was and what will be, my pathway to a new life! The name Keiko is of Japanese origin meaning 'happy child'. That name sure fits me to a T as I'm such a happy happy girl with always a smile on my face. I'm about 10 months old and an active gal that is also super affectionate and cuddly. Nothing comes close to getting snuggly with my people! Since I am still just a pup although a fully grown one but a pup none the less, I will need lots of exercise and playtime. I do great with dogs and kids and wouldn't mind at all if I were to get a sibling of either variety to have a blast with in the yard or I'd also be a happy happy gal getting all the attention as your one and only! I'm a smart lil cookie (I know cuz my foster mom tells me it's so!) and have already mastered a few basic commands such as sit, shake, down and am improving on my leash skills. I love to learn, being as I'm a real people pleaser and can't wait to see what else I can pick up. My favoritest things are playing ball, going for car rides, trips to the doggie park and taking walks! I'm at the perfectly pawsome size of 60lbs to tag along on ALL of our action packed adventures!! I have a velvety soft coat and some amazing colored eyes (they match my coat!!) that you can get lost in! If you add in my affectionate and playful nature I'm got the makings to be a fabulous family addition. I'm just needing YOU to fill out my adoption application!!

These pups are in Sparta, Illinois too!

Story
Luna is a 2 1/2 year old boxer lab mix who love to run and snuggle! Great with young kids and cats. We, unfortunately, need to rehome our Luna due to our work schedule and her needs. Luna needs a home with a big yard or farm to run around, and as a home of first responders, our new schedules are becoming stressful for her. She loves to curl up on the couch next to us and very protective of kiddos. Luna is house and crate trained.
