Story
Can you spell BEAUTIFUL without Bindi? Uh, yeah... but why would you? Bindi is the best little cattle dog mix. She's 1.5 - 2 years old. Full grown at 35 lbs, she is pint size fun. Bindi is super smart. She can place, sit, lay down, and stay on an elevated bed. She is housebroken, crate trained, and has an unbeatable personality. Bindi does AMAZING with other dogs. She is confident, friendly and outgoing. She reads other dogs very well. She also does great with kids. And even though she is a heeler mix, I haven't seen any of the usual herding behaviors. We haven't introduced her to the cats yet. Hopefully, next week. Bindi is completely vetted - spayed, utd on vaccines and heartworm prevention, microchipped and move in ready. This amazing girl is low maintenance and move in ready. Her moderate energy level is great for daily walks or sprints in a yard. Bindi would do best in a home with a fenced yard or acreage, but could thrive with a family committed to meeting her exercise needs. She is a perfect apartment size companion. Now that she is announcing herself as officially on the hunt for a family, we don't think she will be available for long. Pet Pack Rescue Initiative has an application ready for you to complete to meet the dog of your dreams. Don't miss out.

Story
This is Owen Wilson (no relation to the actor but he does share that “WOW” factor). Owen is extremely outgoing; strangers are usually just friends he hasn’t met yet! He loves being around his people and is extremely affectionate and playful but needs a loving home without young children. While Owen is generally fine with older kids, the loudness and unpredictable movement of young children can sometimes make him anxious, and he can have some fear-based reactivity. Owen does great with people and other dogs. Cats are unknown. Owen is silly and loves to roll in the grass and walks on leash, but gets scared of cars on busy streets, so it’s best to keep it in a neighborhood or park. Despite about to turn 9 this May, Owen has great energy and plenty of love left to give. After getting some zoomies out of his system running around in the yard, he loves to snuggle up on the couch with his favorite people. Owen is an almost 9-year-old Australian Cattle Dog Mix. He was rescued from the Milwaukee Humane Society when he was 6 months old and has known nothing but love since. His previous owners welcomed a young child, and Owen just couldn’t get comfortable with the addition and new family dynamic. Owen thrives as an only dog in the house where he can get showered with attention but has also lived great as part of a pack with no issues. Owen is medium-sized and weighs 47lbs. He is neutered, microchipped, house broken, and fully up to date on vaccines. While he is crate-trained, he prefers a couch or bed if he can get away with it. Owen is a great car passenger, routinely making the drive between Milwaukee and Peoria looking out the window and taking naps. He had his yearly check-up on December 8th and has no health concerns. Whatever love or attention you give Owen, he will give it back tenfold! Owen is an amazing dog and deserves a home where he can love and be loved without feeling anxious around young children. If you cannot adopt, please share Owen’s post. Your share may be what reaches Owen’s new family.

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Alice is thought to be a dutch shepherd/cattle dog mix but that is just a guess. She is 2 years old and 70 pounds. Alice is a quiet girl who is content to lay on the couch with you and chew on a bone. She does have short bouts of play. She is shy around new people and will try to hide her head. Alice is good with most dogs with slow introductions, has not been around cats. She is good on a leash, likes her crate, and potties quickly when taken outside.  Her adoption fee of $300 covers her spay, microchip with registration, vaccines, and current monthly flea and heartworm preventions.  Please apply at gfrpets.org/apply ##2596386##

Whether she’s enjoying cuddle time, hanging out with the family, or making new friends, Madra’s affectionate nature shines through. Apply today to meet this lovable girl! All Pet Central animals are up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, spayed or neutered, microchipped (registration included), and current on parasite prevention. Dogs over six-months of age are heartworm tested. When adopting, we will ensure that you receive copies of veterinary and microchip records. Records are sent via email. Paper versions are available upon request. If you are interested in this pet, please fill out the brief Adopter Survey by hitting "Apply for Adoption" on the profile above. After we review your completed survey, we will contact you by phone or email within three business days. Please note- Out of respect for our volunteers and staff, we are closed on Sunday and Monday and will not be processing any applications on those days. Please get back to us right away when we call or email regarding an application so that we can quickly connect using the process below: Select a pet and submit an online adoption survey. A PCH! adoption counselor will contact potential adopters within three business days (PCH! cannot guarantee any pet's availability, but we make every effort to accommodate adopters with a reply and possible alternative suggestions). An adoption counselor and client will then have a conversation to answer questions, discuss any medical needs for the pet and determine the suitability of a match (if necessary, we may opt to put adopters in touch with foster parents). After a match is made, clients will be asked to sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee online through our secure payment system *Please see our modified no-risk return policy. (below) The PCH! adoption counselor will then set up a specific appointment time and location. Adopters should bring a pet carrier and/or a leash to pick up and their ID. Adult pets will be wearing a collar. It is important that clients arrive on time, neither early nor late. Cats and kittens are required to leave in a pet carrier. If your adoption is scheduled at Pet Central Helps!: Upon arrival inside the Crossroads Center complex (360 Wylie Drive), look for the black Pet Central Helps! semi-trailer, which is right outside of our facility (Suite 720). Park in the parking lot and enter the facility. A PCH! representative will greet you and show you to the adoption room. Your new pet will be handed to you. We will take a "Happy Adoption Day” photo with your pet and family. If your adoption is scheduled at PetSmart – Bloomington, IL: Park in the PetSmart (1606 E. Empire St.) Parking lot and enter the store. We will be set up just inside the store entrance. Let us know you are here to pick up your pet! A PCH! representative will confirm your information and hand you your pet. We will take a "Happy Adoption Day” photo with your pet and family. If your adoption is scheduled at the Cat’s Meow Cafe: Navigate to PetSmart, park in the parking lot and enter the store. Locate a PCH! Representative at our adoption table and let them know you are picking up a Cat Cafe Cat. You will sign your final contract with your counselor and snap a picture of the completed screen. Head to the Cat’s Meow Cafe at 507 N. Hershey Rd and provide them with the snapshot of your final contract. They will get your cat and take a “Happy Adoption Day” photo with your pet and family. PCH! supports a 30-day no-fault return policy in which adopters are given the opportunity to find a better match. If we cannot provide advice/tools to keep a pet in the home we offer these options: Exchange for a pet that may be a better match** Receive a refund minus a $40 processing fee** With this approach, we can often turn mismatches into opportunities! Thank you, Pet Central Helps!
