My story

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

Meet Roxanne, a gorgeous 5-year-old German Shepherd mix who was found as a stray and never reclaimed. We unfortunately know nothing about her history but are set to make her future the very best it can be. Roxanne is petite, weighing 40lbs. She was quite skinny when she arrived, so we are working on getting some extra pounds on her.

Roxanne is very sweet and loves getting attention from staff and volunteers. She is a great walker and very gentle. Roxanne seems to be anxious in the shelter environment, understandably. She would benefit greatly from a home where she can get her energy out while also getting lots of love and attention! She doesn't seem to have separation anxiety, but she certainly seems to prefer to have people nearby.

She has done okay meeting a few dogs, she definitely seems to prefer more relaxed dogs, as she has a bit of a bigger personality. We'd love to get her in a home to be spoiled and loved!

WCHS is conducting the viewing of our animals by appointment only. The Kennel Adoption Application and Cat Room Questionnaire can be found on our website under the ADOPT tab, then click Adoption Process. Please be sure to review our processes closely before filling out either form.
Once the forms are submitted, management will receive and review them within 24-48 hours. 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.
