Lady has also done wonderfully around children of different ages, including an 18-month-old and a 5-year-old who played ball with her.

An adult-only, quiet home will likely be the best fit for Monica. She's also a flight risk, so a secure fenced yard is a must, along with extra precautions around open doors and any potential escape routes.

She's just a touch more outgoing than her friends Phoebe and Monica. Rachel sometimes acts like she's ready to play, only to change her mind and make a quick getaway! She's also willing to accept treats, and I even got a little kiss from her during our time together. Those small moments are a big deal for a girl who's still learning to trust.

Rachel will need a patient, understanding adopter who can let her settle in at her own pace. A quiet, adult-only home will likely be the best fit. She's also a flight risk, so a secure fenced yard is required, along with extra care around doors and other potential escape routes.

Rachel may take a little time to come out of her shell, but every treat accepted, kiss given, and playful moment is a step in the right direction. She's looking for someone who will celebrate those little victories and give her the safe, loving home she deserves.

Ivory is one of the best dogs I’ve come across, she’s the best snuggle buddy and loves to snuggle up with you on the couch, she loves to go on walks and always up for an adventure, she’s completely house broke, loves her crate, loves other dogs and would love a play mate that can help show her around her new home. She loves kids (which also means she wants to be very close to them and lick their face) with some boundaries set she will make the best family dog! She also does great with strangers coming in the house. She is said to be good with cats, although I’ve not seen this, I don’t doubt it one bit!

Mabel currently lives in a home with two other dogs and two young children. It's pretty clear that Mabel has no idea how to be a loved member of the family, though her foster home is working diligently on teaching her. If left to her own devices, Mabel will spend all of her time alone. Her foster family is slowly encouraging Mabel to spend time near everyone else, though it will not happen overnight. Mabel has learned that solitude is safety, so she has a lot of new experiences ahead of her. She does enjoy gentle pets, kind voices and walks (it's when she's her most confident self). She has started wagging her tail more and more, and likes lifting up her paw to ask for pets. She is potty trained and crate trained, though she has never destroyed anything when left out alone. While Mabel is around 70 pounds currently, she has quite a bit to lose and is working hard on slimming down.

Her ideal family would be someone with a quiet home and a bucket full of patience. She'd thrive with someone who will continue to gently push her to be part of the family and not let her isolate one hundred percent of the time. She enjoys the company of other calm dogs and would likely do well with cats. She's gentle with the kids in her foster home, and would do fine with other respectful kiddos. A fenced in yard would be a huge plus, and she'd love a family who will take her on regular walks.

She may take some work, but the reward will be worth it.

Now, let's talk about this amazing gentleman!

We found the answer to the question, "Who is the goodest of good boys?" And it's THIS sweet guy, Raylan!

We believe Raylan is a 50lb German Shepherd/Cattle Dog mix, so he's got plenty of love, affection, and a desire to keep an eye on what you're doing throughout the day. At 10 years young, his wild and crazy days are behind him, and he's ready for an easygoing, loving home where he can enjoy the good life. Think cozy naps, leisurely days, companionship, and lots of love!

A few things to love about Raylan: Good with other dogs, not been cat tested, Housebroken, Knows several commands, Not destructive when left unsupervised. Can be a little vocal so not a fit for an apartment. Sweet, mature, and an all-around GOOD BOY!

Who wants to open their heart and home to this sweet old man? He deserves a soft place to land and a family who will love him FOREVER!

Coraline is still working on house-training and does great in her crate. Outdoor potty breaks can be tricky when every little noise catches her attention, so she’ll need a patient person who can help her build confidence at her own pace. Car rides aren't her favorite either, and they can make her a little carsick.

This little girl is looking for an experienced dog owner who understands that confidence doesn't happen overnight. With patience, gentle guidance, and someone she can trust to show her that the world isn't so scary, we think Coraline will blossom into a wonderful companion. She doesn't need a perfect world. She just needs the right person to help her feel safe in it.

Her minimum adoption fee is $350 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents.

She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Ross is an affectionate little sweetheart who loves climbing into laps and soaking up snuggles once he's finished with his adventures. He's also a bit of a wild child who believes just about everything is a potential toy, so there's never a dull moment when he's around! He's still working on the whole obedience thing (sit? come? Those sound like suggestions to Ross!), but he's got plenty of personality to make up for his lack of formal manners.

Ross gets along with other dogs and cats, enjoys playing in the yard, and is learning to be a good little leash walker. He's looking for a family ready for all the fun, silliness, and occasional puppy shenanigans that come with him.

If you're looking for a cheerful companion who will keep you laughing, keep you on your toes, and happily climb into your lap when the fun is over, Ross is your guy! His minimum adoption fee is $300 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.

Chandler can be a little shy when meeting new people, but once he builds a bond with you, his confident, affectionate side comes shining through. He's a loyal little shadow who loves being near his favorite person, and when playtime is over, he's more than happy to curl up for some snuggles. He especially enjoys cuddling with his canine buddies, too!

Chandler is still learning about the world and would benefit from a patient, committed adopter who can help him continue building confidence through positive training, consistency, and plenty of mental and physical enrichment. He'd love a home with another playful dog to show him the ropes, a securely fenced yard where he can burn off some of that endless puppy energy, and someone who appreciates a dog with a big personality and an even bigger case of the zoomies.

If you're looking for a fun-loving companion who will keep life interesting and save you a spot on the couch (and probably in your bed), Chandler might just be your guy! His minimum adoption fee is $300 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.

A home with no small kids would be best, but with at least 1 other dog is preferable.

Winnie takes time to trust people, and she isn't the kind of dog who will immediately run up asking for attention. She can be easily startled and retreats when she feels unsure, so she needs an adopter who will respect her boundaries and never rush her. Being picked up is particularly scary for Winnie, and while she may tolerate it if necessary, she is much happier when all four tiny feet stay on the ground. She needs someone who understands that her quirks are part of who she is and is willing to work at her pace.

But underneath that nervous exterior is a very sweet girl who desperately wants to love and trust her people. Food is definitely the way to Winnie's heart, and she'll gently take treats right from your hand. Once she feels comfortable with you, she'll happily snuggle beside you on the couch, enjoy some gentle pets, and burrow under a blanket like the tiniest little burrito. She also loves chewing on bones, playing with other small dogs, and simply hanging out at home with her people.

Winnie is housetrained and, once she's comfortable, is a pretty easygoing little companion. She would do best in a quiet home with few visitors and people who understand that trust takes time. A secure fenced yard is required because Winnie will run if she becomes frightened. Another small, friendly dog would be a wonderful companion for her and may help her feel more secure.

Winnie isn't looking for someone who expects her to become a confident little social butterfly overnight. She's looking for someone who will celebrate the tiny victories: the first time she approaches without being called, the first couch cuddle, the first time she chooses to stay instead of running away. With patience, kindness, consistency, and time, we believe Winnie can continue discovering just how wonderful it feels to be loved. Her minimum adoption fee is $300 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents.

She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.
