Story

Hi, I'm Opal. Thanks for taking a look at me! I know my cute face is irresistible, but remember that I will take up lots of your time and attention while I grow into an awesome adult dog. Socialization, training (including house training), and exercise are just a few of the things I will look to you for. Chewing, teething, and learning what is Okay and not Okay to put in my mouth are all part of the puppy experience. And, be prepared for the time and money for frequent trips to the vet during the first few months so I can get up to date on my boosters and vaccines. But most of all, be prepared for all of the LOVE, puppy kisses, and joy I will bring into your life. If you are up for the challenge and the fun, stop in and meet my cute self in person during our adoption hours. For more information, email northaurora@ahconnects.org or call us at 847-697-2880 x: 80, and the staff will be happy to help you. Our dogs and puppies go home spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested (7 months and over), and up to date on core vaccines, heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives.

Story

Are you seeking a four-legged friend who matches your active lifestyle and zest for adventure? Meet Odin, a remarkable 5-year and 7-month-old cattle dog overflowing with energy and charisma.

If you're prepared to embark on a journey filled with adventure, companionship, and unconditional love, Odin is ready to join you every step of the way. Come meet Odin today and discover why he's the perfect match for your dynamic lifestyle.

To learn more about Odin or to schedule an appointment to meet him, please email info@ahconnects.org (including your name and phone number), and the staff will be happy to assist you. Our dogs and puppies go home spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested (7 months and over), and up to date on core vaccines, heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives.

Special Needs

Gator (Kankakee Foster)

Cattle Dog

Female, 1 yr

Elgin, IL

Size

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

Details

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Gator has been in her foster home since June of '23. She lives with, loves and gets along with all dogs and cats. She has the typical cattle dog or heeler energy, exercise and mental needs (which is a bit more than your average dog), and she stays true to her genetics by using her mouth to get her way. Gator has met many children of all ages and loves them but will only thrive in a home with a family that understands a cattle dogs needs and tendencies. Gator's foster mom is a professional, certified dog trainer with a passion for deaf dogs. Gator has been very well socialized and even attended a puppy obedience and play socialization class. She works on her obedience skills daily and understands many hand signals. Gator is highly trainable and is very food motivated, often excitably working and learning for fruits and vegetable. Fetch and tug are Gator's favorite games and she loves to chew and believes multiple and rotated safe chewing options are important for a happy dog home. Gator is crate trained and potty trained but her loose leash walking skills are the most impressive. Gator pays close attention to her handler on walks because of a very consistent history of rewarding her eye contacts. She often eats her dinner as rewards on our evening sunset walks or hikes. Gator has absolutely bonded with her foster family and because of this will require a couple meetings with potential adaptors so we can prevent any abandonment trauma. Her foster mom wants to set her up for success and would make sure each meeting is filled with teaching you how to best communicate with our sweet, deaf girl. Her foster mom is even offering free private training sessions after adoption to further the chances of a successful transition and bonding with you. We would love to find someone who is familiar with the cattle dog/heeler breed or has dog experience as this breed is not the easiest for first time dog guardianship. Experience with a deaf dog is not required as we promise, training them isn't much different than training a hearing dog. Every hurdle around deafness is contrasted with perks and we'd love to share all our knowledge for Gator's happiness.
