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

Story
This little guy is named Moez. He is a six month old black and white Pit Bull mix. He was brought into PCAPS after his previous owner just handed him off to a stranger on the street. Along with his adorable underbite, Moez has lots of energy and lots of love to give! He might need to be taught some manners but, most importantly, he needs a home with someone who can play with him and take him on long walks to help drain some of that puppy energy!
