Here's what the humans have to say about me:
🐶Meet Reba: Your New Best Friend🐶
Reba is a vibrant, young mama, just around 1 year old, who has had quite the journey. After coming from the South with her litter of puppies, she's now ready to find her forever family. Reba and her two sisters, Ruby and Robin, were left to wander the streets of Arkansas, where they faced the challenges of pregnancy and heartworm disease. But Reba's story is one of resilience—she’s raised her puppies, undergone treatment for heartworm, and is now eagerly awaiting her next chapter.
A Perfect Mix of Play and Relaxation
Reba's personality is a delightful blend of energy and calm. She loves nothing more than to run, play, and bask in the sun, but she also knows how to unwind and enjoy some downtime. Whether it’s chasing after a squeaky ball or snuggling up for a cozy nap, Reba is always up for whatever the day brings.
A Well-Mannered Companion
Reba is both potty trained and crate trained, making her a breeze to integrate into any household. She’s a quick learner who follows directions well, and her sweet nature means she gets along wonderfully with kids, other dogs, and even cats (though she might enjoy a playful chase now and then).
Quirks and Charms
One of Reba’s favorite games is fetch, but don’t be surprised if she turns it into a game of keep-away—she just loves to keep the fun going! Having come from a background where food was scarce, Reba might be tempted to counter surf, but she quickly learned her boundaries and responds well to a firm “Reba NO.” She’s a girl who aims to please and feels genuinely remorseful when she’s caught in a playful act of mischief.
A Heart Full of Love
Reba is incredibly affectionate and thrives on being close to her family. She’s a loyal companion who just wants to be loved and give love in return. If she picks up something that’s not hers, a gentle reminder is all it takes to have her sheepishly drop it, knowing she wants to be the good girl she is.
Reba is ready to bring joy, love, and a touch of playful energy to her forever home. Could that be with you?

More about this rescue
We are a small 501 C3 nonprofit rescue located in Elburn, Illinois. In 2014, Safe Haven Dog Rescue became its own non-profit. We are licensed by the Illinois Agriculture Department.
The majority of our dogs and puppies are pulled from Kill Pounds and Shelters in Tennessee, Arkansas, and Illinois. We also accept local medical cases as often as our finances will allow.
Please take a few moments to read the stories about the dogs and puppies we have available for adoption. We disclose everything we know about the dogs, sometimes we know a lot often we know only that they were strays, thrown away on the side of the road, in the woods, or found in abandoned houses.
While we don’t always know their past we are certain that their future is much brighter.
We hope that you and your family are part of the future…..
