Story
All Pet Central animals are up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, spayed or neutered, microchipped (registration included), and current on parasite prevention. Dogs over six-months of age are heartworm tested. When adopting, we will ensure that you receive copies of veterinary and microchip records. If you are interested in this pet, please fill out the brief Adopter Survey by hitting "Apply for Adoption" on the profile. After we review your completed survey we will contact you by phone or email within three business days. We're primarily a volunteer organization, so we appreciate your patience. Please note- Out of respect for our volunteers and staff, we are closed on Sundays and Mondays and will not be processing any applications on that day. Do get back to us right away when we call or email regarding an application so that we can quickly connect using the process below: Select a pet and submit an online adoption survey. A PCH adoption counselor will contact potential adopters within three business days (PCH cannot guarantee any pet's availability, but we make every effort to accommodate adopters with a reply and possible alternative suggestions). Counselor and client will then have a conversation to answer questions, discuss any medical needs for the pet and determine the suitability of a match (if necessary, we may opt to put adopters in touch with foster parents). After a match is made, clients will be asked to sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee online through our secure payment system *Please see our modified no-risk return policy. (below) The PCH adoption counselor will then set up a specific appointment time and location. Adopters should bring a pet carrier and leash to pick up. Adult pets will be wearing a collar. It is important that clients arrive on time, neither early nor late. If your adoption is scheduled at Pet Central Helps!: Upon arrival inside the Crossroads Center complex (360 Wylie Drive), look for the black Pet Central Helps! semi-trailer, which is right outside of our facility (Suite 720). Park in the parking lot and enter the facility. A PCH representative will greet you and show you to the adoption room. Your new pet will be handed to you. We will take a "Happy Adoption Day photo with your pet and family. If your adoption is scheduled at PetSmart: Park in the PetSmart Parking lot and enter the store. We will be set up just inside the store entrance. Let us know you are here to pick up your pet! A PCH representative will confirm your information and hand you your pet. We will take a "Happy Adoption Day photo with your pet and family. PCH supports a 21-day no-fault return policy in which adopters are given the opportunity to find a better match. If we are not able to provide advice/tools to keep a pet in the home we offer these options: Exchange for a pet that may be a better match** Receive a refund minus a $40 processing fee** With this approach, we can often turn mismatches into opportunities! Thank you, Pet Central Helps!

Story
Niko is a 1.5 year old Pit Bull Terrier mix with an energetic and loving personality. Weighing about 65 pounds, he’s a smart, eager-to-please pup looking for an experienced adopter to help him thrive. Niko has been a star when it comes to training - he knows several commands, including sit, down, and he knows to wait at doorways and for food. Niko listens well when given clear direction and is eager to continue learning in his forever home. While Niko is fine with cats when properly introduced, he would do well as the only dog in his household where he can be the center of attention. He enjoys playing with other dogs but benefits from one-on-one attention and consistent training that comes with being a single-dog companion. He would thrive in a home with a fenced yard, where he can safely burn off energy during playtime and zoomies. Niko’s playful spirit also means he loves belly rubs and games, making him a fun and affectionate addition to the right family. Given his energetic nature and occasional jumping, Niko would be best in a home with older children. He needs an adopter who can guide his excitement and reinforce his training to help him be his best self. Niko is a wonderful, loyal boy who is ready to bring joy and love to a home that understands his needs. If you're looking for an active, affectionate companion and are committed to continuing his training, Niko might just be the perfect match for you. Niko's adoption and McLean County Registration fees have been sponsored by one of his admirers.   He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Story
Meet Mimi, a delightful 12-year-old Pit Bull Terrier weighing 63.8 pounds. This sweet and fun-loving lady is full of personality and loves nothing more than following you around. She knows how to sit, shake, and lay down, and she's always eager to impress. Mimi adores toys and bones, and she enjoys exploring the yard, sniffing around, and showing off her spunky energy. Despite her age, she’s still young at heart and would thrive with daily walks to keep her active. While she keeps her kennel clean, she does have the occasional pee accident, but she's working on it. Mimi should be the only dog in the home due to her protectiveness over her space and items. Although she got along with her foster’s dog initially, she's shown that sharing her space and resources can be stressful for her. Mimi hasn’t been around children, but with her gentle nature, she may do well with older, respectful kids. Mimi's adoption and McLean County Registration fees have been sponsored by one of her admirers.   She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.
