My story

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

Meet Boots!
Shepherd/Spitz/Husky??? Mix
Approx. 2-3 yrs old

Boots is a very smart but timid boy. He loves to play and likes toys, balls, chewy treats, and bones. He also loves blueberries and chicken! Boots also loves the chance to run around at the dog park!

Boots other favorite past time is cuddling up on a doggie bed or making a nest out of some blankets. He loves to cuddle with his human. Boots likes to go for walks and is working on not pulling as much. He will continue to need some help with training in his new family.

He's good with other dogs and lives with several in his foster home. He prefers female dogs. Boots appreciates his pack at his fosters home and would do best in a home with another dog. Boots is housebroken and will let you know when he needs to go outside.

When Boots first arrived, he was cautious of new things, but his foster family has helped to show him that there is nothing to be worried about! He is still timid when he meets new people but will warm up, given some patience and time. Boots is a laid back boy who just wants to find a family who will love him!

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.
