Story
Archie was an unclaimed stray saved from our local pound. He is fun and goofy...LOVES to play with his ball and (in warm weather) splash in his baby pool. He's good in the house and not destructive - but he has a serious mistrust of strangers. He will warm up to them after a session of ball throwing - but would need to be heavily managed at first. He'd be a great companion and protector for a woman. For more information - call or text 217-473-9044; or email scottcountydogrescue@gmail.com.

Story
Sarge is an awesome boy...well mannered and well socialized. NO CATS! Best with older kids as he sometimes gets so excited - he could knock a little one over accidentally (but then rushes to lick furiously to apologize). For consideration - request an application at scottcountydogrescue@gmail.com
