Story
Meet Lana, a delightful 3-year-old Pitbull Terrier mix looking for her forever home at CCHS! This is her second rodeo with us-her first owners hit a rough patch and couldn't care for her anymore. Now, she's back because she struggles when her people aren't with her and prefers to steer clear of kiddos under 10. Don't let her shy demeanor fool you; once she warms up, she's a bundle of energy who adores snuggles! If you're ready to add some fun to your life, swing by CCHS and give this cutie a proper hello!

Story
Meet Shrek, the one-year-old, tail-wagging, male Pitbull Terrier mix ready to steal your heart at CCHS! This lovable goofball has made a few pit stops with us, starting off as a transfer from Animal Control and returning most recently because his last family couldn't keep up with his playful antics. He's a bit of a food hoarder around other dogs, so he'd be the king of the castle as your one and only pup. Bursting with puppy energy and ready to romp, Shrek is just waiting for someone to come by, give him a belly rub, and say, "You're coming home with me!"

I am a long-term dog resident here at the Champaign County Humane Society! What does that mean? It means I have been available for adoption for over 90 days and am more than ready to find my forever home! In fact, the shelter is waiving my adoption fee for any approved applicant. Please stop by the shelter during open hours to visit with me! Meet Nova, the one-year-old Pitbull Terrier mix, ready to steal your heart at CCHS! While she's not exactly a social butterfly with other pets, she shines as the solo star of the show. Bursting with energy, she might be a bit bashful at first, but once she snuggles up to you, get ready for some serious affection! If Nova has caught your eye, swing by CCHS for a meet-and-greet with this lovable pup!

Price negotiable** want a good home for him!!! Duke is a handsome boy full of energy who needs a yard to run in , he loves being outdoors and playing catch. He will be 2 on Dec 26, 2024, I have some health issues that are making it difficult to care for him. We live in a tiny home with no yard. It's not fair to him to have to be caged while I am at work or not feeling well.

Story
Adopted my baby from a breeder when she was 5months old. She was shy for the first 3 days. After coming out of her shell, she was a ball of energy and still is if encouraged. She loves playing fetch, tug of war, and chase. Also, she loves to explore new environments, did I already mention she loves playtime? Lol, seriously, belly rubs are therapeutic. Loves to play with other dogs but a little rough so especially ones her size. Looking for family with other pits, that’s loving and doesn’t spay.

Story
Hi! I'm Bruno, I think I'm a lap dog even tho I'm about 100lbs. I tend to be lovable and cuddly but sometimes I don't know my own size. I'm very energetic and hyper but that's just cause I'm excited all the time. I am protective of my owners that's why my bark is so scary but I don't bite unless it's my squeaky toy. I love being outside and enjoying the fresh air but I really don't like the rain. I get along great with kids and other animals. Ido enjoy a good walk or hike. I love a good car ride, especially if you let me hang my head out the window.

Story
1. Escedi thrives with classic TLC. She responds well with ear and butt rubs. She will just look at you as if she just won the lotto! She loves to sleep, eat and cuddle. She did great on a leashed walk, although distance is not in the books for her anymore and she seems to be thriving doing her slow laps around the backyard. She loves food and treats, but by no means aggressive to either. Just generally happy with whatever is put in front of her! 2. I have quite a few plants in my backyard and there is one with large leaves. She goes into slower motion and lets the leaves coast over her back. She will do this multiple times! Just in and out. (Video below)Classic tail wag always lets me know if I’m understanding what she needs. We are only day 3 together, but she seems to find ways to communicate. I’ve only heard her bark once and that was to go outside, otherwise the only other noise she makes is the classic pitty low level snores.3. Eat, sleep, cuddle and she’s one happy camper! 4. Still figuring this out! She’s thirteen years old and day one she needed assistance with my deck stairs and even help to get to the grass. She slept most of the entire first day. Day 2 she walked the yard and then waited for me to help her hindlegs up the stairs. Day 3 she did the stairs this morning on her own with little trouble! She also made multiple walking laps in the yard today! Just taking her morning stroll.5. Escedi is sharing space with another old soul who’s significantly smaller than her. They are both thirteen. She has just molded into the routine, although she does demand just as much cuddles as my pup. No food aggression. Enjoys a treat, but takes it very kindly. She did see other dogs through my fence and on our only walk and it didn’t seem to phase her. If she’s awake, she wags her tail and just hopes you give her some pets! Doorbell didn’t seem to trigger anything.6. She’s your shadow when she’s awake. 7. Escedi has mostly been a couch potato! She did rest on the big doggie bed for the first time. Comfort really is her goal. A home with few stairs may be best as she is an old gal. 8. Escedi thrives with classic TLC. She responds well with ear and butt rubs. She will just look at you as if she just won the lotto! She loves to sleep, eat and cuddle. She did great on a leashed walk, although distance is not in the books for her anymore and she seems to be thriving doing her slow laps around
