Story
Sir Winston Bailey came to us very ill and thin, in diabetic ketoacidosis, after the people caring for him failed to give him insulin for over a month. His owner had loved him very much, but had been hospitalized. His vet called us, as she new this dog had way too much spunk to not be treated. We have had him since May and have been making sure he gets the best of care. He is a 9 year old Yorkie, now almost 9 pounds (he was 5 lbs when we got him) and is both blind and diabetic. Because of his small size, his diabetes has been harder to control that many diabetic dogs, although he is doing much better. Any adopters must take on the cost of his care (about $300 monthly for insulin, prescription dog food, and glucose sensors, with up to $2000 in a hypoglycemic emergency), keep up his monitoring with the Univ of Illinois Internal Medicine Department at the Vet School, and keep him on strict feeding and exercise schedules. His diabetes does lead him to pee more frequently, although he is generally pretty good with puppy pads. Bailey is a wonderful dog, affectionate and brave, undaunted by all that has happened to him medically. He is down to four teeth, but he still tells off big dogs, although has been great with the dogs and cats in his foster home. He has been a favorite of all who have met him. HIs $300 adoption fee covers his many vet visits, vaccines, heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, deworming medication, and microchip registration.

Story
Carl's Junior is a sweet, loving, and energetic yorkipoo. He is a one year old boy who is very much all-puppy. He is impressively kennel trained, “sit” trained, and very smart as well for such a young, energy filled 14 pound boy. Coming all the way from being dumped in Tennessee, he has been a loving foster son to two families. Due to his energetic and adventure-seeking nature, Junior would be a bright and happy addition to any young, or otherwise energetic and active individual or family! He needs to be outside often when temperatures allow, to run out all the energy, he will run it out in your home otherwise, ha! His favorite game in the world is fetch with his ball, he will play for hours if you let him! He is good with bigger dogs and older kids but they better be willing to play! Do not be afraid, or shy off, when I mention energy, as it is sweet and playful, however there is a lot of it. I believe Junior would best benefit from slight obedience training, as he can be excited but is just as smart! We are actively working on weaning him off of his teething play behaviors, and he is fastly working his way up to potty training, (and loves to be praised for his progress!) Junior is your best-companion waiting to happen! Carl's Junior's $300 adoption fee includes his neuter, vaccines, heartworm test and prevention, flea/tick prevention, and microchip with registration.

Story
Please welcome Calvin! He's a 2-year-old, 10-pound Yorkie mix. This poor guy was running loose for a while before someone finally caught him. He was very matted, but is looking quite dapper with his haircut. Calvin would prefer to have someone home with him as much as possible. He'd like to cuddle with you, and is pretty good with people in general. Although, he might bark at anyone who appears to be a threat to you. He is decent with the dogs and cat in his foster home. But, he may chase a cat who runs away. Calvin is fine in a car, and he is not bad on a leash. He prefers not to be contained in a crate while in the home. However, this is something that can be worked with. He definitely needs a secure leash, or very secure fence, anytime he is outdoors. We feel he should not be in a home with shared walls (I.e. apartment/condo) unless you're home with him most of the day. We are also unsure how he is with young children. Can you give this guy the new beginning, and happily ever after, that he deserves? https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DBSR/Dog His minimum adoption donation amount is $325. He is neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, heart worm checked, and on flea/tick and heart worm preventatives. We are located in Bloomington, IL We do not ship, you would need to travel to pick up your babies if you live out of state. Your current pets must be up-to-date on core vaccines, spayed/neutered, and on heart worm prevention year round. You must be at least 21-years-old to adopt. Please have your veterinarian and two non-family reference phone numbers ready. The app makes you start all over if you leave the page to look up numbers.

Story
Hello, I'm Elliot! I was a stray who no one came looking for. This makes me sad because I really love people and other doggies. I'm just 7-years-old and a wee 9-pounds. I'm told I'm a Yorkshire Terrier (Yorkie), but I don't have a British accent.I had a haircut when I first arrived, and I was the bestest boy for it. I didn't even squirm when my leggies were getting trimmed. I like walkies, cuddles, and car rides are okay. I can be crated too, but I'm happy wherever I have a comfy spot. Please apply here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DBSR/Dog His minimum adoption donation amount is $275. He is neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, heart worm checked, and on flea/tick and heart worm preventatives.
