Story

Billy, Billy, Billy! The favorite amongst police officers. Our baby boy is the most handsome guy with piercing greyish eyes and a personality as big as the moon! Billy was a stray that was never claimed and sat for months in the police station. We were luckily able to find a great foster home for him and he has now completed 8 sessions of training with our hand-picked trainer for manners and leash walking. He will need continued work on greeting people and leash walking - FYI. He knows sit, kennel, paw, stay, and down and is house-trained, crate-trained and is working on a release command. Billy is a foodie and his favorite things to eat are....STRAWBERRIES AND BLUEBERRIES! This dude loves people and he especially loves his human foster sister who is 8 yrs old. He is good with kids and loves to be in the center of their shenanigans. He isn't fond of other animals so he must be in a home with no other dogs or cats. Children should be sturdy or 5 and up. He is known to steal kids toys as his own, but my mom always said that if its on the floor, its fair game! The human neighbors like to play with Billy over the fence. He brings his ball to the fence where the neighbor will pick up and throw the ball for hours with him. Billy likes to Netflix and nap, get belly rubs, play fetch, and eat chicken jerky! Billy also has some funny quirks - he makes alien sounds, likes to flip his water bowl or food bowl to let you know he's empty, he will let you know he has to potty when he won't get out of your personal space. Billy is learning to be less mouthy - so an assortment of chew toys, non-rawhide bones and licky mats are a must.

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi, I’m Dinora! I came into CACC emaciated and desperately needing help. Eventually, I found myself on the euthanasia list—but ADA saw me, said yes, and gave me the chance I needed. Now that I’m safe, everyone is discovering something pretty special about me: I’m absolutely perfect. I’m a tiny, gentle lovebug who adores people. I’m friendly with dogs, wonderful with kids and adults, and just genuinely happy to be around everyone. I’m also an amazing passenger in the car, so if you’re looking for a little copilot to join you on adventures, I’m ready to buckle up and go. After everything I’ve been through, you might expect me to ask for a lot. I really don’t. I just want affection, a soft place to sleep, good food, and people of my own to love. I made it out of CACC. Now I’m ready to go home! ##2820614##

Toffee

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Hi, I’m Toffee! I’ve been waiting for my forever home since February 3, 2025. Somehow, a handsome guy with great manners, a big heart, and a generous sponsor helping reduce my adoption fee is still waiting for his person. I’m 6 years old, and my perfect day is pretty simple: a good walk, some exploring, maybe a few snacks, and then quality time with my favorite human. I can get excited and pull a little when we first head out, but I’m smart, food-motivated, and eager to learn. Once I get some energy out, I settle into a sweet, calm companion. I’m house-trained, keep my space spotless, and I’m not destructive. I’ve worked with a trainer and have a great foundation. I need an adult-only home where I can be your only pet—no dogs or cats. Personally, I think being your only pet just means I can take my job as your best friend very seriously. I’ve watched a lot of dogs find their families while I’ve kept waiting. Thanks to a generous sponsor, my adoption fee has been reduced to help me get one step closer to home. I’ve been ready for a long time. Maybe my person just hasn’t seen me yet. ##2295692##

Kane

American Staffordshire Terrier Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, 8 yrs 5 mos

Naperville, IL

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Kane is about 7–8 years old and has been patiently waiting with us for quite some time. On the surface, he checks all the classic dog boxes: he’s never met a treat he didn’t like (except broccoli… we’re still not sold on that one), he loves leisurely walks where he can stop and sniff absolutely everything, he enjoys rolling in the grass, soaking up the sunshine, and chasing a soccer ball as fast as his chunky little butt will carry him. But Kane is far from an ordinary dog. What some people mistake for stubbornness is actually what our trainer calls intelligent disobedience. Kane is a thinker. He knows the routine, he knows our tricks, and he’s usually one step ahead. If he’s outside and not quite ready to come in, don’t worry — he already knows someone will eventually show up with treats to negotiate. Honestly, there are moments we’re convinced he’s just a person living in a dog’s body. After undergoing two ACL repair surgeries, Kane earned himself recovery accommodations in one of the coziest rooms in the shelter — the Shelter Operations Manager’s office. He enjoyed the VIP lifestyle so much that the rest of the shelter simply doesn’t meet his standards anymore. During his office era, staff quickly learned that Kane specializes in delivering the wettest kisses imaginable, staying close to his favorite people, and expertly convincing humans to hand over extra snacks (he’s very persuasive). Beneath his goofy charm is an incredibly loving, affectionate, and deeply loyal dog. Kane bonds closely with his people and while he may take a little time to build trust, once you’re in his circle, you’re his forever. He thrives on companionship and would do best as the only pet in a home where someone is around to keep him company and appreciate all the love he has to give. Kane isn’t just looking for a home — he’s looking for his person. And if you give him your loyalty, he promises to return it tenfold, along with endless cuddles, laughter, and a lifetime of unforgettable moments.

Naperville, IL

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Domino's story at A.D.O.P.T. started when he came in as a stray, arriving with patchy fur and inflamed skin that needed some extra care. Thanks to our medical team and a lot of TLC, he's feeling great and ready to find the forever family he's been waiting for! This handsome guy is always up for an adventure. Whether it's hitting the trails for a hike, exploring new places, or splashing around in the water, Domino is happiest when he's on the move. Ponds, pools, sprinklers, or even a garden hose—if there's water involved, count him in! Domino is a social, playful boy who gets along well with other dogs. He loves to run, wrestle, and play with canine friends. He's also incredibly smart and enjoys learning new things. Training sessions are one of his favorite ways to spend time with his people, and he's eager to show off just how clever he is. With his athletic spirit, sharp mind, and just the right amount of mischievous charm, Domino is looking for an active family who will embrace his zest for life. If you're searching for a hiking buddy, a training partner, a water-loving sidekick, and a dog who will keep you smiling (and on your toes!), Domino just might be your perfect match.

Chain Chomp

Pit Bull Terrier Bulldog

Male, Adult

Yorkville, IL

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Chain Chomp! Chain Chomp AKA "Chompy", "Chompers" is ironically enough, not very Chompy. He was given his name lovingly after the Super Mario "Chain Chomps" due to him coming in as a very emaciated boy with a chain around his neck. We think this good boy is ~6-8 years old, but we don't know for sure. He very clearly was not well cared recently, and he thoroughly enjoys meal time and attention from humans. He is dog friendly, but we aren't yet sure about cats. More to come soon on that! For now, CC is just looking for a human to love, and learn about the good life of a home! Also, look at his most adorable face! He weighs approximately 50-55 lbs now and is a Bully/Pit mix. His adoption fee is FREE. He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and heartworm negative. Please stop by the shelter to visit, or call/email: 630-553-9256 or animalcontrol@kendallcountyil.gov with questions.
