Story
Little Tito was found wandering outside of a very small town in Northern Illinois during a very cold spell this winter. He was wearing a leash and collar but no one came forward to claim him and the men who found him asked all over and no one had ever seen him before! He was cold and tired and hungry and grouchy (I would have been too!). He is a little guy at just 7 lbs but he has the big personality to make up for his size. He is very shy of strangers. Once he trusts you (usually around 24 hrs time) he will be your forever buddy and shadow. He loves to be held and carried and give kisses. WE do not suggest him in a home with small kids as he will nip if he is scared/startled. He is good with other dogs his size but does prefer others to be subordinate to him or female. He is unsure about cats.  ##2336168##

Story
This little one was a part of the Waterloo Rd Valentine's Weekend hording case. She is super sweet and an very active little lady! The vets guessed her to be around 3-4 years of age. She has long black fur and loves to play and talk to you! We don't know how she would be with little kids, but she is great with other small dogs and cats. She has the cutest biggest bat ears you have ever seen...yet won't show them to me for a picture haha. ##2350824##

Story
If you are interested, you MUST complete the application. We will only set up meet and greets with an approved application. Pixie is one of 10 small defenseless little dogs that was dumped in the middle of many many acres of nothing but soybean and corn fields. What a horrible fate for these dear sweet babies. Animal Control was called and they called PAWS to see if we could assist with trying to catch them and take them in. We have spent over two weeks (at the time of this post) and managed to catch 7 of them. We are still working to catch the last two that we can find and have not seen the 10th one since the first day. These babies have been through quite the ordeal and are now ready to go on to homes where they will be loved and doted on. They are all shy at first and definite flight risks so they will not be adopted to homes with children and will require that the adopter have a fenced yard. This beautiful girl, Pixie, is very shy and will take someone with lots of love and patience to win her over. She came around very quickly with me but gets very scared if anything in her environment changes or if she is taken to a new environment (such as the vet). She is a very loving little girl who wants to be loved so badly but just can't forget that humans have not been kind to her. She is still very afraid of fast movements. She will do well with other other dogs as long as they are her size or smaller and allow her to be the boss. She is about 11 lbs and we guestimate that she was born around 07/01/2018. Her adoption fee is $350.

If you are interested, you MUST complete our application which can be found at pawspaws.org. We will only set up meet and greets with an approved application. Pascal is one of the small defenseless little dogs that was dumped in the middle of many many acres of nothing but soybean and corn fields. What a horrible fate for these dear sweet babies. Animal Control was called and they called PAWS to see if we could assist with trying to catch them and take them in. We spent over three weeks and managed to catch 9 of them. (It was reported that there were 10 but we never spotted a 10th dog.) Pascal is very shy and protective at first but once he gets to know you, he just wants to love and be loved. He will require someone with lots of love and patience to win his trust. He came around very quickly with me. He is a very loving boy who wants to be loved so badly but just can't forget that humans have not been kind to him. He seemed to be the protector of the group and did a little growling and snapping when he first met us. He is still very afraid of fast movements. He will do well with other other dogs as long as they are his size or smaller and allow him to be the boss. He is about 15 lbs and we guestimate that he was born around 07/01/2018. His adoption fee is $200.
