Story
Miss Sadie was found outside our workshop in rural Saline County IL. She was cold, wet and HUNGRY! We have had her a few months looking for her owners. She is up to date on shots, has now been spayed and healed and has gained some weight. She is such a good girl, she gets along with our other dog and both cats that we are fostering and our grandchildren love her. We can’t keep her however due to our small house and already having one LARGE dog. She does like to be outside a lot too but has to be on a lead or in a fenced area or she will put her nose down and wander off. She will come with her bed, a bag of her favorite food and treats.

Story
Toga is about 4 years old, and she is the biggest baby. She listens so well. She just wants to love everyone she meets. She is also great with random dogs. She will not bark and will stop when told. She does not approach random dogs either. Very gentle with toddlers. House trained so well to the point that if she happens to go in the house, it was indeed my fault. She has never known a cage but is always trusted to mind the house wild I am gone. She deserves the world, and I can't give that to her. Times have been tough for me as well as my own errors adding on top of things. She currently has a skin infection that makes her scratch constantly. I regrettably have not had the money to take her to a vet. I simply just don't have what she needs out of an owner. I am scared to let her go as I need to know that whoever takes her, can give her the love she deserves and needs. That is the only payment I am asking for.
