My story

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

Meet Coco, a precious 9-year-old Chihuahua mix weighing in at about 9 pounds! Coco was originally adopted from us after her owner passed away a few years ago. Coco sadly was returned as she was uncomfortable around the toddler in the home. Coco has a precious little smile and enjoys the attention from staff. She can be shy at first and seems most comfortable around women. Coco previously lived as the only pet in the home. We think she’d do best as the only pet or possibly with another easy going small dog. Coco enjoys curling up in a comfy bed and going on little walks to explore. Once she's comfortable with you, she will happily sit in your lap or burrow into your clothes. She had a dental and surgery to correct her cherry eye. Unfortunately, what teeth she had left were in such poor condition that they had to pull them. She is on a wet food only diet at the moment as she heals from the dental. Her cherry eye did return, but it does not bother her or impede her vision.

Please understand that our facility is receiving a high volume of request and are doing our best to accommodate as many as possible. Management may not contact you for 3-5 days. You will either be contacted via phone, or email with the findings of our inquiry and/or to schedule your one-on-one viewing appointment with staff.
Please understand that our facility takes the health and safety of its staff and surrounding community very seriously. With that being said, entry to our building is only granted to those who have been pre-approved and have been given a viewing appointment. Walk-in viewing IS NOT an option.

More about this shelter

As Will County’s original no-kill shelter we’ve been serving the area for over 40 years with a single purpose, provide a safe haven for homeless pets and help them find their forever home.

Every day of the year we care for up to 30 homeless dogs and 60 cats looking for their forever homes. We provide for their general health care, shelter and well being through our network of volunteers and resources.

It’s important that you know that we’re a private shelter 501(3)(c) not-for-profit that receives no federal or local government dollars to run our facility and care for pets. In fact the shelter relies on generous donations from people just like you to make it all happen.
