My story

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

Meet Rocket!!! Rocket is a 1.5 year old (known, born June 2023) Cattle Dog mix who came into our facility as a stray, and his owners decided to surrender him. He is a very friendly boy who has lived with other dogs and cats as well as children. Rocket is a smart cookie, and very food motivated, so training him should be a total breeze. He currently knows "sit" and is housetrained. Rocket loves toys and loves to chew right now so toys/chews are a must for this pup. He weighs around 45 lbs. His adoption fee is $150 and he is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and heartworm negative. If you are interested in giving Rocket the gift of a forever home for the holidays, please call 630-553-9256 or email animalcontrol@Kendallcountyil.gov, or stop by during our open business hours to meet him!

More about this shelter

Kendall County Animal Control is the county agency responsible for enforcement of the state statutes governing rabies control in domestic companion animals. The State of Illinois requires that all dogs are vaccinated against rabies by a licensed veterinarian. Compliance with this law is monitored through the issuance of rabies tags for all dogs residing in the county. All dogs are required to wear their rabies tags when off of the owner's property. If a pet is lost, rabies tags also provide an excellent means of identifying your pet.

Kendall County Animal Control also enforces the county's ordinance that prohibits dogs from running at large in unincorporated residential subdivisions, investigates reports of animal bites, and will pick up contained stray dogs in unincorporated Kendall County during operating hours. Stray and owner released cats and dogs may also be brought to the facility during business hours. Cats and dogs are available for adoption at the facility.
