Heather's Foster Dogs
Sugar – Available Breed: Terrier Mix
Sex: Female Age: 1 year
Weight: 32 pounds Spayed
Sugar (aka Baby Girl) is ready for her forever home. In the two months she’s been in foster care we’ve seen her blossom. She used to be so mouthy, even when she was getting a bell rub. Not any more! Sugar used to hesitate to go outside and only if you went with her. Now she loves to go out and even knows what a squirrels are! She’d love to have a fenced yard to hunt in.
Sugar’s house training is good; you do need to pay attention that she’s getting it done when she’s out. She’s shown no worry when it storms out either!
After spending time at another foster home for a few days we also know Sugar might really enjoy having a friend to play with, someone about her size. Sugar usually sleeps on the sofa at night, guess she thinks threes a crowd in bed, but once her foster dad gets up for work it’s snooze time with mom. We do crate her when no one is home.
At just 14 months old Sugar can still get into mischief. So she needs a home where people aren’t gone for 8-10 hours a day. That would be a set back. Sugar is still leery of new people and will bark at them. They just need to ignore her, let her investigate them. After a short while she’s fine. She loves her toys, ball, bones. As soon as you get her harness out, Sugar’s ready to go! for a walk or car ride!! She clearly didn’t have the greatest first 12 months of life.
With a lot of love and patience she’s turning into a happy Baby Girl. Sugar just needs someone to give her a chance and not expect immediate affection. Sugar is microchipped, spayed, up to date on her vaccinations & on monthly preventatives.
Sugar’s adoption fee is $255.

Jethro – Available
Breed: Black & Tan Coonhound Mix
Sex: Male Age: 3 years
Weight: 53 pounds Neutered
I’m Jethro. I come to you from a few hours south of Chicago, where I was turned into a small rural shelter with heartworm and a broken jaw. I’ve been spending time in foster care getting the medical attention I need and I cannot wait to find my new home!
My jaw already started fusing back together by the time rescue came so I did not need surgery for that. A generous sponsor came forward and took care of the cost of my heartworm treatment, so now I am back to being healthy. I was neutered, dewormed, microchipped, and vaccinated.
I’ve been fostered with dogs and cats. I’m intimidated by large male dogs and do best with small males and/or females. I’m great with cats too! I’m respectful of them and don’t chase them. I also got to meet some kids at an adoption event and definitely like them. I don’t like other animals in/around my food when I’m eating, so my own space at dinner time will be best.
My perfect home will appreciate that yes, I am a hound and while I don’t do the classic howling at the moon, I can be a talker when excited and sing your praises when you come home. (Bonus is you will never have to worry about anybody breaking into your house without my alerting the entire neighborhood.) My foster home has had to keep me quiet during heartworm treatment so I really look forward to a yard to run around. A fence is a must as when I spot a squirrel, I’m off and running. I would enjoy toys and exercise to keep me stimulated and out of mischief. Experienced hound owners a HUGE plus!
My adoption fee is $255.
