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. Records are sent via email. Paper versions are available upon request. If you are interested in this pet, please fill out the brief Adopter Survey by hitting "Apply for Adoption" on the profile above. After we review your completed survey, we will contact you by phone or email within three business days. Please note- Out of respect for our volunteers and staff, we are closed on Sunday and Monday and will not be processing any applications on those days. Please 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). An adoption 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/or a leash to pick up and their ID. Adult pets will be wearing a collar. It is important that clients arrive on time, neither early nor late. Cats and kittens are required to leave in a pet carrier. 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 – Bloomington, IL: Park in the PetSmart (1606 E. Empire St.) 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. If your adoption is scheduled at the Cat’s Meow Cafe: Navigate to PetSmart, park in the parking lot and enter the store. Locate a PCH! Representative at our adoption table and let them know you are picking up a Cat Cafe Cat. You will sign your final contract with your counselor and snap a picture of the completed screen. Head to the Cat’s Meow Cafe at 507 N. Hershey Rd and provide them with the snapshot of your final contract. They will get your cat and take a “Happy Adoption Day” photo with your pet and family. PCH! supports a 30-day no-fault return policy in which adopters are given the opportunity to find a better match. If we cannot 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

Applications at leiashope.org Apple Crisp is located in Decatur, IL. She is believed to be a Teddybear (Shih Tzu/Bichon) and was born in our care after her mom arrived pregnant. Apple Crisp has quickly earned her reputation as the diva of the litter. She is tiny, adorable, and absolutely convinced she deserves her own personal staff. If something feels even slightly beneath her, she will let you know—sometimes loudly. Noise cancelling headphones might be a wise investment. Despite her flair for dramatics, Apple Crisp is incredibly sweet and loves her people. She would do best in a home that understands her personality and gently encourages her to figure things out instead of rescuing her from every situation. When given space and support, her confidence grows, and she shines. She enjoys cuddling, playing with her siblings, and supervising from a comfy lap when possible. She is currently going through the Puppy Culture program, which focuses on confidence building, problem solving, early socialization, and positive communication. Apple Crisp enjoys her one-on-one learning time and will go home with the next-stage Puppy Culture online course (a $100 value) to help her new family continue her training and development. Apple Crisp was weaned onto a balanced raw diet to support her gut biome and overall health. She will go home with a few days of food for transition. While she does not have to stay on raw, it is preferred for optimal health. Like all Teddybears, she will require frequent brushing and routine grooming every six weeks to keep her coat healthy and mat free. She has been examined by our veterinarian and is in perfect puppy health. Apple Crisp will be ready for her forever home once she is fully weaned and has received her second puppy vaccine. Her adoption fee is $650. She will go home with two rounds of vaccines and a microchip. Subsequent boosters will be the adopter’s responsibility. She will not be spayed until at least 6 months of age; we cover a portion of the spay cost if completed between 6–9 months. A spay contract is required and enforced. Applications are available at leiashope.org. We are a volunteer-run organization and applications take 7–10 business days to process. We do not schedule meet and greets without an approved application. Adopters must travel to Decatur, IL for the meet and greet and to complete the adoption, and all family members (including dogs) must be present. Puppies are a 15+ year commitment, and adopters should be fully prepared to love Apple Crisp for her lifetime. We do not allow rehoming, and we do not offer transport or allow our dogs to fly cargo.

Story

Applications at leiashope.org Apple Cider Teddybear (Shih Tzu / Bichon mix) Female Location: Decatur, IL Apple Cider is the kind of puppy that steals hearts without even trying. She has the cutest little smudge on her face — a feature her foster mom finds absolutely adorable — and an easy-going, lovable personality that makes her a joy to have around. She is simply easy to love. She is confident, curious, and excels at learning new things. New experiences don’t faze her much, and she approaches the world with a calm, positive attitude. Apple Cider enjoys playtime and especially loves balls, with crinkle cat toy balls being her absolute favorite. She does very well with children and other dogs and would prefer a home with a playful canine companion. Like many puppies, Apple Cider likes to be right where the action is and has a habit of getting underfoot, which means she is not suited for homes with mobility concerns. Apple Cider was born in rescue and has been raised with Puppy Culture protocols, giving her a strong foundation in confidence building, problem solving, and thoughtful social skills. Continued education through Puppy Culture is preferred and included with her adoption. She will go home with the Puppy Culture course *With Open Arms and a Level Head*, which focuses on helping puppies grow into confident, well-adjusted companions through intentional, positive experiences. She is currently fed a balanced raw diet. While continuing raw is not required in her new home, providing a high-quality, nutritionally sound diet is important for her optimal health, growth, and overall well-being. Apple Cider is in perfect puppy health, has been checked by a veterinarian, will go home with age-appropriate vaccines, and will be microchipped. She will go home with a spay contract, with Leia’s Hope covering a portion of the cost if completed between 6–9 months of age. Regular grooming will be required throughout her life. Adoption fee: $650 Applications are processed in 7–10 business days. An approved application is required before a meet and greet. All family members, including resident dogs, must attend. Adopters must travel to Decatur, IL. If flying, Apple Cider must ride in the cabin with her family — cargo flights are not permitted. Puppies are a lifetime commitment, and adopters must be prepared to care for Apple Cider for the next 12–15+ years. If at any point she cannot remain with her adopter, she must be returned to Leia’s Hope Canine Rescue. Applications can be submitted at leiashope.org.
