Story
Meet Cyrus, a super sweet and energetic Australian Shepard mix who's ready to bring joy and fun to his forever home! This active 51 pound, 1 year old pup would thrive in a home with a fenced yard and a family who enjoys an active lifestyle. Cyrus is dog-friendly, potty trained, and already knows the command "sit." One of Cyrus's favorite pastimes is playing with toys, especially balls—he could spend hours chasing and fetching them! He also enjoys spending time outdoors, chewing on bones, and soaking up lots of attention from his people. Given his youthful energy, Cyrus can be a bit jumpy when he's excited, so a home with children aged 6 and up would be best. If you're looking for a playful, loving companion, Cyrus could be the perfect match! His minimum adoption fee is $295 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).
