My story

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

Meet Clarice (aka Blue Bell)!

This sweet brindle Boxer/Terrier mix is just 5 months old and weighs 16 lbs. With her petite size and the sweetest face you’ve ever seen, Clarice’s foster mom thinks she’ll stay on the smaller side.

Clarice is a playful, curious pup who loves exploring the yard, her nose always on the lookout for new scents. After a fun-filled play session with her foster sisters, she’s all about snuggling up in her foster mom’s lap and giving lots of puppy kisses.

Smart and eager to please, Clarice is doing great with potty training and is quickly learning commands like 'sit,' 'no,' and 'off'—especially when treats are involved! She’s a social butterfly who gets along well with other dogs, holding her own during playtime. While she rarely barks, she can be vocal when romping with her foster siblings.

Her kennel is her happy place, where she enjoys taking naps—often with a foster sister by her side—and she willingly settles in at night for bedtime. Clarice loves meeting new dogs and people and would thrive in a home with other dogs or kids to play with. While she hasn’t met the cat in her foster home yet, she’s always curious and open to making new friends.

Clarice is active but balances it with her love for naps. She enjoys daily walks, is great on a leash, and responds well to redirection.

If you’re looking for a smart, playful, and snuggly companion, Clarice might just be your perfect match!

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…..
