My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Tess
45 pounds - Lab/Hound Mix
At least 7 yrs old

You should come see this lady, get to know her and you're hooked
She is friendly and loving, odd that she's been overlooked
She is house-trained and quiet, loves to cuddle and get pets
Want a dog to just be with, she's as good as it gets

On her walks she is perfect, friendly to all that she meets
Loves to stop to get petted, and enjoys all kinds of treats
Walks nicely right beside you, someone has trained her quite well
She is so gentle and calm, so many nice things to tell

Tess is just easy-going, she fit right in with our pack
Not an angry bone in her, and love to give...there's no lack
If you're looking for that girl, to bring love into your heart
Tess would love to fill that role, when you meet her it will start


Our standard adoption fee is $295 cash or check and $300 credit card ($5 processing fee). It includes spay/neuter when age appropriate at our participating vets, age appropriate core vaccinations, fecal testing, deworming, flea and tick preventative,1st vet visit at one of our participating vets, and micro-chipping.


We must have an application, conduct a phone interview, and meet your entire family to approve an adoption. Please email safehavendogsIL@yahoo.com for an application or additional details.

Please note that the breeds and sizes posted in this biography are educated best guesses and are not guaranteed.

Please consider becoming a foster home while you search for your new best friend. We need foster homes - pounds are overflowing with puppies and adult dogs that are at-risk and need help. We can only rescue as many as we have foster home commitments. Fostering is a rewarding experience for your family.
