My story

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

Here is a hunky, happy boy, who is just as sweet as...taffy;) Taffy is a ball of energy, who loves to be loved! His tail never stops wagging, meaning you will get endless `love taps`! Taffy has quickly made friends here despite being the newbie. He loves his doggie companions, and of course any hooman that he may stumble upon. He`s stocky and stout, and also a little clumsy. Taffy would do well in a home with older children, he doesn`t know his own strengths! He would absolutely love to meet you, and any four legged siblings he may have!

More about this shelter

The South Suburban Humane Society is a 501(c )(3) organization that was started in 1970, serving the animal welfare needs of the entire south suburbs of Chicago. In the beginning, we handled all rescues, adoptions and provided foster care out of private homes. Since November 1973, our organization has been operating a 10,000 square foot open-door animal shelter in Chicago Heights, Illinois.

For over fifty years, our organization has helped tens of thousands of animals. We offer extensive outreach programs including humane education, and community outreach events. We also operate a resale shop located in Steger, Illinois that promotes our organization, our animals and provide much needed income to support our humane work.

The Mission of the South Suburban Humane Society is to protect and promote the well being of pets and their people in our community and beyond.
