This adorable gentleman is Bam Bam! He's a 5 year old Miniature Poodle mix who's neutered, current on his vaccinations, microchipped and house trained & crate trained although he's not a fan of the crate. He gets along very well with cats, little dogs & small children.
Bam Bam was rescued with Pebbles, with whom he's bonded & has to be adopted with, in probably the worst neglect case we've ever had. They were both severely underweight to the point they were skin & bones - Pebbles was only 4lbs - they were covered in fleas which gave them skin issues, and their fur was horribly matted. Pebbles teeth are rotted and will be removed, plus she can't see so life was not good for her. Separating them isn't an option as they need each other & are very close. They are now living in a foster home where they're getting all the love & attention they were missing and are ready to find their forever home!
Bam Bam is a friendly guy who takes to people fairly quickly. He's a sweet boy who specializes in kisses and likes being near his foster mom. His favorite part of being in a foster home is sleeping in his foster mom's bed, which he absolutely loves! Bam Bam is very handsome and easy to love, especially with his soft fur, kind eyes & sweet face that just asks for kisses! There's something special about him that makes you want to protect him and give him the best life possible.
He has a medium level energy and likes both hanging out on the couch and going for long walks. Bam Bam is learning the joys of playing and plays like he never has, it's pretty special to see and touches his foster mom's heart! His favorite toy is his little stuffed bear and he has fun roaming around the yard with Pebbles, too.
Bam Bam is not only good-looking, he's a smart little guy, too! He's food motivated and never says no to a treat so teaching him new commands should be easy. Walks are one of his favorite things to do and he loves seeing his leash, knowing it signals it's time to go out the door, and he walks on a leash fairly well, with just a little pulling. He's a good boy in public, loves car rides & prefers the passenger seat where he usually captures attention at stop lights and gets quite a few smiles. Even though he's little, he's a bit protective and will bark at outside noises to alert you that someone is outside.

PPI Granite City Animal Control: www.facebook.com/poundpetsincorporated
Pound Pets, Inc. is a small, 501(c)3 non-profit rescue that is ran by volunteers and is foster home based. PPI runs Granite City Animal Control and some of our pets reside there until they're fostered or adopted through PPI or another rescue pulls them.
Foster Homes are the backbone of PPI and are always needed! If you'd like to be a part of our Foster Team, please learn more about it at http://www.poundpetsinc.com/foster-homes-needed.html
Volunteers are vital for running Animal Control plus helping the rescue run smoothly. Animal Control Volunteers clean the building & provide the dogs & cats with clean kennels, beds, blankets, toys, treats, outside play time, walks & human interaction. We try to comfort the scared, keep the high-energy ones exercised and provide plenty of love & affection to make their time at animal control as less stressful as possible.
Rescue Volunteers are needed to help at adoption events, to transport, help fundraise, write grants, graphics design, network adoptable pets, network pets in AC who need rescue, participate in community outreach, assist us at our pet food pantry and various other duties.
If you'd like to join our Volunteer Team, please fill out an application at

Barn Homes are always needed! We take in many feral cats who wouldn't like living in a home and would be happiest in a barn home, which provides shelter & food. These homes still need to go through our adoption process but the fee is waived. Please fill out an application at https://form.jotform.com/32098523410145 if you'd like to help some feral cats.

Licensed Rescues are needed to pull animals from Granite City Animal Control, which is very small. We also save the FIV+ cats, but we don't have a lot of room for all the incoming strays. There are no fees for a rescue to pull a dog or cat. If you can help us, please email us at poundpetsinc@gmail.com
