Banner, Spangle & Star Are Safe! 🇺🇸❤️

Three tiny 7-week-old puppies were found abandoned on railroad tracks, with food scattered across the rails. It’s heartbreaking to imagine these babies left alone in such a dangerous place.

Thankfully, a local animal control officer stepped in, brought them to safety, and reached out to us for help. Because of that, these sweet pups now have a second chance at the life they deserve.

Meet the trio:

❤️ Banner – the big boy of the bunch, full of puppy charm.

❤️ Spangle – the lover boy who is always ready for cuddles and affection.

❤️ Star (Starlet) – the adorable big-eared sister who will steal your heart in seconds.

These precious German Shepherd mix puppies are now safe, warm, loved, and ready to start searching for forever families.

Their story could have ended very differently, but instead, it is just beginning.

🏡 We are now accepting applications for Banner, Spangle, and Star. If you’re ready to add a loyal best friend to your family, apply today!

Sometimes heroes wear uniforms, and sometimes they have four paws. These babies were given a chance—now let’s find them the loving homes they deserve. ❤️🐾

Pomsky fans! Meet 1 yr old Rio. 🌴

He came to us from Ogle County Animal Control when his family refused to claim him! WHAT?
He is a lover, a friend to everyone and your typical Pomsky, activity high.
He climbed their chain link fence and got out twice, so they said, forgot him!
WHAT?
He is just a baby! He needs some leash walks, some boundaries, and a family who can give him tons of kisses!
He will be neutered Thursday, but we will accept applications starting today. This boy needs a home, not a kennel! 🥰

We are radiating pride for our remarkable lady Ronnie! 🩷

Her enrichment journey has launched her into remarkable adventures, and she sees the World as a stage to explore, discover, and grow. She is mastering fear and stepping into new experiences with courage. She greets new things and people with a positive attitude, stepping forward with faith and a bright smile! 🥰🤗
Tomorrow Ronnie has a significant meet and greet; today she got ready with a visit to Tractor Supply and had her first grooming session. She did a great job in the store, was patient with the water, enjoyed the shampoo treatment, and incredibly, the blow dryer became her new favorite!
Please wish her well and send positive vibes for a successful meet and greet!
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
