Story
Kal is a sweet dog to myself and my ex partner. He is unfortunately a reactive dog and struggles with meeting new people. He does not get along with other pets or children whatsoever. I am looking for capable people who will care for him. When he gets to know you, he is extremely sweet and loves cuddles. He has a great deal of energy, and loves to play catch or go on a walk. My ex and I have worked through training classes with him and he is well trained. Knows sit, come, leave it, and look. He is also fully potty trained. The classes were an attempt to help with his anxiousness and reactiveness. He has good and bad days. Overall he is a reactive dog, who will need a patient person to care for him.

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.

Story
Meet Erling, an  Australian Shepherd mix pup with an estimated DOB of 4/8/26. He currently weighs about 20 pounds. This sweet little guy has already overcome more than any puppy should. While we don’t know what happened before he came into our care, his battered ears and patch of missing hair tell a story. Thankfully, as his foster mom says, “Whatever trauma he faced before does not seem to have impacted his love and trust of others.” Erling is a super smart, food-motivated boy who is eager to learn and is already making great progress with both house training and crate training. He loves toys, sturdy chew toys, car rides, and exploring the world around him. But perhaps Erling’s greatest quality is his love for everyone he meets. He absolutely adores people and dogs of all ages and sizes—big or small, young or old. He’s friendly, outgoing, playful, and incredibly social. With his happy personality and eagerness to learn, we think Erling would make an amazing family dog. Like any puppy, Erling will need a family committed to helping him learn and grow into the wonderful adult dog he’s meant to be. With patience, consistency, treats, and plenty of love, we have no doubt this resilient little guy has an incredible future ahead of him. All Erling needs now is a family to show him just how wonderful life can be. His minimum adoption fee is $325 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives. For information about this dog's breed(s), visit: http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/abc.htm To fill out our adoption application, go to: http://fs16.formsite.com/WishBoneCanineRescue/adoptionapplication/index.html Wish Bone Canine Rescue  1303 Morrissey Drive Bloomington, IL 61701 www.wishbonecaninerescue.org           Since its our desire that you have a pet you can enjoy a lifetime of love with you, we take special measures to ensure that the pet is the best match for you and your family.  We require that you complete our online www.wishbonecaninerescue.org (Please give us 24 hours to verify your information). If you have any other questions, you can reach us by email (preferred) at wbcrshelter@gmail.com.  Thank you.August 29, 2026, 9:54 pm
