Story
Freckles is a sweetheart. She might not show it at the shelter or during adoption events, but trust me, she's a forever girl once you see her at home! She loves to tear into stuffed animals but is a total champ about not chewing up pillows, shoes, or anything else. Indoors, she's well-behaved, housebroken, and goes into her crate easily. She walks great with her prong collar and really gets into tug of war with her rope or catching tennis balls. Oh, and she's a popcorn-catching pro! Freckles goes nuts for peanut butter, popcorn, and pumpkin-the three P's-but she also adores duck jerky. She's not a fan of storms or loud noises like thunder or fireworks; she prefers hanging out in the walk-in closet during those times. She's a bit cautious around new people at first, thinking she needs to protect, but once she feels safe, she's all cuddles on the couch, laying her head on your chest while you pet her.

Story
Meet Adelyn! She's a 7 year old, 60 lb pittie princess who LOVES love. Adelyn's always smiling, but the smile we can't wait to see come across her face is her Adoption Day smile. Adelyn is loving and loyal and always down to snuggle. She is house and crate trained, loves going for walks and don't even DARE say the word "car" around her! She LOVES rides! A few words from Addie's foster mom: "She really is the sweetest girl. She is the perfect girl at home and has never chewed anything but her toys or had any potty accidents. She's very food motivated and is easily trained. She is crate trained and never fusses to be crated. She loves to snuggle, gives lots of kisses, and just wants to please. She sits or lays quietly in the car and never barks or jumps around. She is a beautiful girl, so we will keep hoping for that perfect someone to give her a chance." Adelyn's adoption fee is fully sponsored through our Unicorn Program, and she is spayed, microchipped and current on all vaccines. If you are interested in making your house Adelyn's home, please go to our website at www.partnersforpetsil.org and fill out an online application for her today!
