My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Jumping for joy James!! This happy go lucky boy is so fun and knows no stranger! To top it off, he has excellent manners (minus the jumping for joy), knows all basic obedience and LOVES walks/runs with the kids! He absolutely loves other dogs and we want to see a canine buddy in his new home, perhaps one with good, playful energy but able to walk away from his playfullness and enjoy basking in the sun too. The two dogs in his foster home have this mastered perfectly with him, the rug her amount of play balances the best amount of rest for everyone. 
 
James truly is the perfect family pup, great size, crate and housetrained, or perhaps an agility dog-he has the energy, drive, and smarts for that too! Wow his new person/family is in for the best boy!

More about this rescue

GENESIS ANIMAL RESCUE, established in 2001, is an all volunteer, not-for-profit 501(c) 3 charitable organization who relies on supporters dedicated to rescue.

We are a licensed no-kill animal shelter/foster home organization with the Department of Agriculture for Illinois. Genesis is dedicated to the immediate rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption of animals in need, primarily dogs, but not limited to. All incoming animals are given a complete health check upon arrival, and provided ALL necessary medical care. A thorough behavioral evaluation is performed prior to any and all foster stays or eventual adoption into a forever home. After evaluating health and temperment, the animals then begin the process of healing. Severe abuse and neglect are common among our incoming animals. The healing process encompasses both physical as well as psychological healing.

We are based in central IL area, our animals come from local and regional animal control facilities, strays, and occasional owner surrenders. Our group consists of individuals who have donated countless, volunteer hours to the plight of homeless and abused animals. These people open their homes and hearts to act as foster parents until permanent placement is established.

Visits/Adoptions are by appointment only.
