Story
Misha Female Carolona - Terrier mix (Breed is strictly best guess only) 32Lbs Date of Birth 6/13/23 Misha is a 1 year old snuggle bug. She is low energy for a dog she is crate trained, house broken and very food motivated. She has the cutest little underbite and the most beautiful eyes. However, she can be nervous with new things but does warm up once she knows you. Then all she wants is to be loved. With a lot of patience she will be your constant companion. She’s not fond of loud noises as they scare her, She would do well in a home with other younger dogs, who will help her come out of her shell and teach her how to be a dog. But also a more quiet environment. She has done will with both large and small dogs and is very submissive. Fenced in yard is recommended. Car rides can make her nervous, but she seems to enjoy going places once she gets there. She likes dog friendly stores and nature walks. She doesn't bark or have an aggressive bone in her body. She is lovey and sweet, just very, very shy. If Misha sounds like the perfect fit for you and your family, please visit the rescue website www.foreverhomedogrescueil.org for requirements, process and applications.

Story
My name is Konai and I’m looking for my forever home. I am a snuggly, sweet boy. My “must haves” are a family who will keep regular 6-month vet check-ups and prescription diet so I’ll stay healthy. I’m 8 years old and I came to SIRA from a commercial breeding facility where I helped make puppies. I love this life so much better! I can’t wait to have a forever family of my very own! I love snuggling with my foster mom. I get so excited when she comes home that I jump and spin like crazy. Can you blame me? She gives me such wonderful pets and scritches and walks and treats! I give her kisses in return. She says I’m her cuddle bug. When foster mom is home, I like to follow her around so I know where she is. I guess I’m not fond of being alone. I love other dogs. When I see a dog outside on our walk I’ll cry with excitement. There are girl dogs here in my foster home and I get along well with them. I like playing with them and hanging out. I’d love to have a nice dog friend in my forever home, but foster mom says I’d probably do okay as an “only dog” as long as my family is home a lot so I don’t get lonely. I also love going for walks – I like exploring the neighborhood even more than playing in the yard, so I’m fine if my forever family doesn’t have a fence. I like playing with toys, but I still have no clue what to do when foster mom tosses one at me. When I’m not following foster mom around or playing, my favorite things are treats and taking naps. Foster mom says I need to warn you that I snore like a bear. Hrmph! I DO NOT! (Wait, what’s a bear?) I also like rolling around on freshly mopped floors so I can smell clean like the Swiffer spray. Yeah, I’m goofy. Anyway, when I first came to SIRA, my foster family could tell that something wasn’t right. After lots of visits to the vet, they discovered that I had tumors in my colon and I had to have emergency surgery! That was scary and not fun at all. If you follow SIRA’s Facebook page, you may have seen my story. Well, I’m healed now from my surgery and foster mom says that I’m ready for my forever family! Because of my surgery, I’ll need to stay on a prescription diet and treats. I’ll also need to have an ultrasound exam every 6 months to make sure that no new tumors grow back. I’ve never lived with any little humans, but foster mom thinks that I’d be okay with them. I haven’t met any cats or small pets, but I love to chase and hunt critters in the yard, so I’m not sure how I would do with small pets. I’m neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations and I weigh 28 pounds. If you live in the Midwest and would love a sweet, silly snuggle-buddy to share your home with, then I’m your boy! Visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt to start the process of becoming an approved adopter with SIRA. The application process helps SIRA learn more about you and your home environment so they can tell if we’ll be a good match. Once approved, SIRA will introduce you to my foster mom so we can meet.

Story
My name is Bert and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m worried that nobody will want me. My foster dad says that I’m such a sweetheart and such a good boy that people will fall in love. He says I may not be a cute puppy, but I’m still handsome. I hope he’s right. I’m 8 years old and spent my whole life at a commercial breeding facility. As long as us dogs were doing our jobs, nobody paid much attention, which was fine with me, because the humans weren’t very nice. I’m trying to wrap my brain around this new world here in my foster home in Machesney Park, IL. There are so many noises and people and things moving around - it’s new and scary. The people here have been kind and gentle and patient with me. They give me good food and pets and scritches and I’m learning that feels good! I’m still scared of them, but I like to watch what they’re doing from a distance. Foster dad says I’m a really smart and good boy. I have learned to go potty outside and am really well-behaved in the house. I let my foster family pick me up with no issues. I panic sometimes and try to make a run for it. So my forever family will need to be very careful to prevent me from getting loose. I’d do best in a calm, quiet household who can be patient if it takes me a while to adjust. I’ll need a securely fenced yard. I’m good with other dogs, but would probably do okay as an only dog too. I’ve never met any cats, so I don’t know what I’d think of them. Foster dad says small kids would probably not be a good match for me since I’m pretty big and heavy when I get running – I might accidentally knock them over. I am neutered and vaccinated and I weigh 34 pounds. I’m healthy, except that when I first came into foster care my rear legs weren’t as strong as they should have been. After some rest and medicine, I’m much better – and can run like the wind! If you live in the Midwest and will give a sweet gentleman like me a soft place to lay his head, I promise I’ll be the best boy ever. Visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt to apply to become an approved SIRA adopter. The application process helps SIRA tell if we’ll be a good match. Once approved, they’ll introduce you to my foster home so we can meet.

Story
I'm Drake and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m 5 y.o. and weigh 30 lbs. Are you looking for a walking or hiking buddy? I’m your guy! I came to my foster home here in Montgomery, IL, from a commercial breeding facility where I used to help make puppies. This is my first time living in a home with people and there is so much to get used to. So far, my favorite things are going for walks and exploring outside. And the good food! I like it when foster mom gives me neck scritches. Loud noises still spook me. I have learned to trust foster mom, but I still get skittish around new people and places. I’m super-smart and a very good boy. I solved my first food puzzle in less than a minute, and I’ve only had 2 potty accidents the whole time I’ve lived here! I’m pretty quiet. I only bark when I’m excited (like when I want to play) and I squeal when I’m startled. I’m independent – I usually hang out by myself. But I’ll run to foster mom for comfort if there’s a thunderstorm – or if I’m hungry or thirsty. I get along with the animals who live here. Sometimes I worry that they might hog foster mom’s attention, so I’ll push them out of the way. Sometimes I guard high-value treats and food, so foster mom recommends separating me when I’m given something really yummy. I like to chase critters outside, so I might not be good with small pets. My perfect forever home would be patient and calm with humans who like walks. It would be great to have a laid-back dog to show me the ropes. It might take a while to warm up, but I like watching them and copying what they do. Little kids are not a good match for me (so scary!). I’m a healthy boy – neutered and vaccinated. I have something called a luxating patella. That means I have a loose kneecap. It doesn’t cause any problems now, but if it does in the future, surgery might be needed. If you live in the Midwest and want a buddy to explore the great outdoors with, visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt to apply to become an approved SIRA adopter. The application process helps SIRA learn more about you and your home environment to see if we’ll be a good match. Once approved, they’ll introduce you to my foster home so we can meet.
