Story
Meet Raven! This pretty girl is a 3 year old Pitbull mix. She was adopted from here as a puppy but sadly, she was returned recently for not getting along with the cat in the home. Raven is the happiest girl! She is content and happy no matter what she is doing. Whether she is snuggled up in her bed with her favorite toy or playing in the play yard, she is always happy. She also loves to share her toys and will bring it to you. Raven is well mannered but needs to work on her jumping a little bit. She also keeps her kennel very clean. We are unsure how she is with other dogs but all dogs in the home will need to be present to meet her. She can’t be in a home with cats. Raven will be available for adoption tomorrow at 12pm and is eager to meet you. Please visit noahsarkanimals.org to review all adoption requirements and submit an applicationTo apply to adopt a dog from Noah's Ark in Rockford, IL, please visit noahsarkanimals.org.

Story
Hi! My name is Ace! I acquired my name from the lost boys from the movie Hook. I will be 4 years old this June. I really love tons of attention. I love baking in the sun and rolling around outside. I was born in Texas, so I love the heat. I do get cold very easily so my momma always has a fleece on me in the winter months and a T-shirt on inside. I’ve been living in Illinois since I was 8 weeks old. My family of 5 humans (3 children), my best friend Ruffio (Olde English Bulldogge), weird little creature Finn (Orange Tabby) and two fish. I am house trained and sleep in my crate. I will say though, I can’t resist human food and I’ve stolen a few pizzas off the counter when my humans left the room. I’m in need of a new home because my canine brother and I haven’t been seeing eye to eye the past two years. Even though I’ve been with him since I was a pup. I have a ton of energy and well he just doesn’t like to play as much. I’m assuming I will need my new home to be just for me.
