Story
Disclaimer: This animal is not in Anderson custody. and is a courtesy post to help a member of the community rehome directly without shelter intervention. Any adoption inquiries should be directed to the owner at noguezjuan@gmail.com and/or (773) 317-7918. To reiterate, Anderson Humane is only advertising this animal on behalf of a member of the public; please reach out to them directly using the information above, as this animal is not in Anderson Humane’s custody. Anderson Humane makes no guarantees regarding medical or behavioral status of this animal, and the current owner is solely responsible for disclosing any challenges or concerns. Anderson Humane is not responsible for any unsuccessful adoptions. Stella is a sweet, affectionate girl looking for a loving home where she can be the center of attention. Due to ongoing conflicts with her littermate sister, we have made the difficult and heartbreaking decision to rehome her so she can live in an environment where everyone stays safe and happy. We truly believe Stella would thrive as the only pet in the household. Stella is calm by nature and not overly energetic, but she absolutely enjoys playtime, training sessions, and spending quality time with her people. She is incredibly smart and picked up basic commands very quickly. She knows sit, lay down, shake, speak, roll over, leave it, and comes when called. Mention the word "walk," and she'll be ready in an instant. She is both crate trained and fully potty trained, making her an easy addition to a structured home. Stella loves comfort and affection. If you give her a blanket, she'll happily wrap herself up and settle in for cuddles. Belly rubs are one of her favorite things, and she's a true snuggle companion. Stella is wonderful with children and has never bitten anyone. She can be a little cautious around men and taller individuals at first, but she warms up quickly, especially when treats are involved. Women, in particular, tend to become her friends very quickly. One quirk that makes Stella uniquely herself is her love of collecting toys. She prefers to keep them all close and tends to hoard them rather than share, which is another reason she would do best as the only pet in the home. She also has a playful side that never fails to make us smile. Stella loves going on walks, responds immediately when called, and enjoys watching and chasing airplanes across the sky. We love Stella deeply and are committed to finding her a home where she can receive all the love, attention, and one-on-one companionship she deserves. She isn't being rehomed because she isn't a good dog—she truly is. We simply believe she will flourish in a home where she can be someone's one and only furry best friend.

Story
Marigold comes to us from San Antonio TX with 4 other siblings. She is the baby of the group a quiet little soul who's been easy to overlook, but is slowly starting to show us there's more to her story. Shes often been the most disengaged of the five, but it may simply be because her more confident siblings tend to take the spotlight. She looks to Magnolia for guidance and comfort, following her lead in new situations. And as Magnolia has started to grow more confident, we've seen Marigold begin to blossom too. Its those small, connected steps that are so special watching her build courage through the trust she places in her friend. Marigold has started coming to the front of her kennel and venturing outside during playgroups instead of staying tucked away inside. Shes interacting more with the environment and observing the world around her, slowly finding her footing. She does allow handling, but because she tends to let others take the lead, she can still be a bit of a challenge to actively engage with. She isn't very treat-motivated though, to be fair, her packmates are usually quicker to snatch them up first! Marigold is: Dog-friendly and gains confidence from her companions Gentle, observant, and quietly progressing Beginning to explore more of her surroundings Independent in her own subtle way, just at her own pace Marigold will thrive in a patient home that understands shy dogs and will celebrate the small wins. A calm, confident dog friend especially one she can bond with will help her continue to grow. She may not demand attention, but Marigold is quietly searching for someone who will see her, believe in her, and give her the chance to bloom. Marigold and the littermates will be in Elgin, IL the second week of July. These dogs didn't have the opportunity to experience much of the world before coming into rescue, so they are under-socialized and lacking confidence. With patience, love and gentle guidance, we believe they will continue to make incredible progress.

Story
Mingo is the charming, scruffy boy of the group from a Texas kill shelter with big ears and wiry hair that give him an irresistibly unique look. He's the third most social of his pack, and with every interaction, you can see his confidence growing. Coming from a background with very little human contact, Mingo is learning step by step that people can be kind and safe. The progress hes made has been so encouraging, especially with the help of a trusted female handler. Through her guidance and participation in playgroups, Mingo has started to truly come out of his shell. He now regularly leaves his kennel to explore the yard, investigate new things, and spend time playing with other dogs. Even better, hes begun greeting us when we approach a huge milestone for a shy pup like him! While handling is still a bit of a challenge, hes clearly on a positive path and gaining confidence with each session. Mingo is: Dog-friendly and enjoys playgroups Slowly building confidence with each interaction Especially responsive to female handlers Curious, improving, and eager to explore Mingo will need a patient, understanding home that can continue helping him feel safe and secure. A friendly dog companion and a calm environment will go a long way in helping him keep progressing. With time, encouragement, and love, Mingo is going to be an incredible companion. Mingo and the littermates will be in Elgin, IL the second week of July. These dogs didn't have the opportunity to experience much of the world before coming into rescue, so they are under-socialized and lacking confidence. With patience, love and gentle guidance, we believe they will continue to make incredible progress.

Story
Meadow is the heart of her little pack -a gentle ringleader who shows the others what bravery looks like, one small step at a time. She and four other young dogs came from a property in San Antonio where they had almost no human interaction. The only person they knew was an elderly man who would step outside to leave food and water. Because of that, Meadow is still learning what it means to feel safe with people. Despite her shyness, Meadow is the most social of the group and the first to approach. Shell come up to the kennel, sniff your hand, and especially if you have treats she will gather the courage to get a little closer. Shes treat-motivated and will gently take them from you, which is a big step forward for a pup who's still figuring out trust. Right now, touch can still feel scary to her, but shes curious and willing and that's everything. With patience, kindness, and a calm home (bonus points for a confident dog friend!), Meadow has so much potential to blossom into a wonderful companion. Meadow is: Dog-friendly Curious and quietly brave Treat-motivated Learning to trust, one step at a time She deserves a chance at a new life, one where shes not just surviving, but truly loved. If you have a gentle heart and the patience to let her come out of her shell, Meadow will reward you with the kind of bond that only comes from giving a shy dog a second chance. Ready to help Meadow bloom? Reach out to meet her. Meadow and the littermates will be in Elgin, IL the second week of July.

Story
Meet Scout, an adorable 4-year-old, 20lb Terrier/Chi/Cattle Dog type mix. He is a sweet boy who loves to be with people and receive attention. He knows sit and paw and will happily offer those commands whenever you would like, sometimes even when you are not asking for them. Scout has lots of energy and is working on leash manners. Because of his dog reactivity, he will need some work on walks. A fenced yard would be great for him. He does love to run around and sniff in the grass. He can tend to grab the leash to try to tug or be a little mouthy when he gets excited. He is looking for a home with no children or other pets.

Story
This is Chester. He has been with his foster since he was about 4 months old, but is still looking for just the right family. They will be patient, with a quieter household, willing to give a nervous boy time to adjust to them and a new environment. He does love other dogs and would do well in a home with a confident 4-legged sibling to show him the ropes. Because of his nervousness, Chester will require a home with a fenced yard. Our adoption process is usually quick but may take up to two weeks. When you find an animal you are interested in, we ask that you fill out an application on our website, PawsUp4Rescue.org/adopting as a first step so we can determine if your family is a good fit for the animal. If you are, then we will contact you to arrange a time for you and your family to meet the animal so you can decide if it is a good fit. If you currently have dogs, we require them to be present at the meeting to ensure it's a good fit all around. Once compatibility is determined, we move on to the paperwork and finalize the adoption. If the meet is not a good fit, we will keep your application on file for 6 months and will gladly consider your family for another dog.

Story
Ellie is a very sweet girl who had a bit of a rough start. She and her siblings were dumped in rural Missouri, so she is a bit nervous. She will need some patience, but she is quickly learning that snuggles are a good thing. She loves other dogs and loves to play and run, so she would enjoy having a confident four-legged sibling to show her the ropes. She is a year old and weighs about 23 lbs. Because of her lack of confidence, a fenced yard is required. Our adoption process is usually quick, but may take up to two weeks.
