Very sweet girl. Can be timid at first but warms up quick. She is very smart, and picks up on new tricks so fast! Quinn is currently in a foster home that loves her dearly. They do have cats and noted she should be in a home without them. She is great with other dogs. This precious girl deserves the best home, where she can acquire her dream job; lap dog.

Story
This sweet lady is Tombstone. She is a 2 year old boxer/pit mix. She got her interesting name because she was found running at large in a Peoria cemetery. She completed stray hold at Peoria County Animal Protective Services and no one came to reclaim this beauty. She will help you with yard work picking up all the sticks. She loves sticks, she will drop them nicely when asked. She as very sweet and loving both treat and attention motivated. She has a loud mouth but it is all for show. Give this (not so) little lady a bit of time to warm up and you`ll have a partner in crime.

Story
To gaze upon this pup is to stare into some incredibly soulful, human-like eyes. You can’t look away and you just have to spend some time with him. At 9- months, he presents some typical puppy behavior but also sits on command with a patient regal pause awaiting his treat. His puppiness shows when he gets a little frisky and wants to nibble with those puppy teeth- totally developmentally normal…. so chewy options are a great pivot to redirect this behavior. He’s a delight! Apply for this handsome boy at tapsshelter.org
