Dennis is a happy little man with a big personality. We think he is about 3 years old. He always bounces out of his kennel with glee, and is always happy to meet new people. He loves to be part of whatever is happening, and will enjoy going places and doing things with his new family.  Dennis is neutered, micro-chipped and current on all his shots.

Story
I got Jax from a foster family, in April. He was a perfect fit for my life at that moment. We think he’s about 15 months old(so a little bit of a puppy still). My life changed and I’m unable to give him the attention and all the undivided love he needs. I hate to let him go. He love other dogs and even loves kids. He can be a little crazy but he loves good cuddles. I’d love his furever home to have at least another dog, room to run and play, and the option to come visit him. He’s an amazing dog. All he really wants is love and attention. He’s a lover. He’s food motivated and pretty easy to train. He know all the basic commands and love to please.

Scone

Labrador Retriever

Female, Young
Lacon, IL
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Scone is a beautiful young gal who was born around January of 2018. She gets along well with other playful dogs, and loves to go out with her shelter pals. She is friendly and outgoing with adults, but young children make her nervous, so a home with no kids (or older kids) would be best. She is very smart and learns quickly, so she is very easy to train. Scone is spayed, micro-chipped and current on all her shots.

Molly

Labrador Retriever

Female, Adult
Lacon, IL
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Molly is a beautiful and sweet young girl with a fabulous personality. She has a very soft temperament and a kind personality, and she is very loving with her people. She is rather shy at first with strangers, but she does warm up quickly with a patient approach and a few treats :-) She get along very well with other dogs, and she loves to go out to play with her shelter pals. Having another friendly dog in the home would be a big plus for Molly, as it would help her feel comfortable and adjust to her new home.  Molly is intimidated by younger children, so she will do best in a home where everyone is 16 years old or older. Molly is spayed, micro-chipped and current on all her shots.
