Story
Please visit leiashope.org for our adoption process. Located in Decatur, IL Say hello to Neon! This guy was formerly a stud in a puppy mill but he has left that world behind him! Neon is a loyal guy that loves the ladies! He follows foster mom everywhere and has even jumped in the shower to be with her! He has just started to play and currently his favorite friend is the handsome pup that looks back at him in the stove's shiny surface! He can keep himself pretty entertained! Neon is mostly good with other dogs but sometimes his chi attitude presents itself and he gets jealous and doesn't want to share a lap. It's all just for show and hasn't done anything. Little dogs and big attitudes seem to go hand in hand with chihuahua breed. Neon is a master at being a lap dog and just wants a person to love! Neon's adoption is $375. He is neutered, current on vaccines, microchipped and on flea and heart worm prevention. Visit leiashope.org for next steps! PLEASE NOTE: We are a volunteer ran rescue with full time jobs. Please allow 7-10 days for application processing. All of our dogs are in foster homes and a meet and greet is done ONLY after an approved application. We do adopt out of the area. However, we do not ship or provide transportation. You must come to the location of the dog to meet and adopt. NO EXCEPTION. All family members and dogs must be present at the meet. Dogs are a commitment for THEIR lifetime. For puppies this could be 15 years. If YOU cannot commit to the lifetime of the DOG, please do not apply. Puppies under 9 months must go to a home where there is someone home frequently (works from home or a partner is home), can adequately socialize and train the puppy, and can keep up with puppy energy!

Story
Dasher is a 2 year old chihuahua/ mini poodle mix. He was found as a stray in Arizona. He is extremely loving towards people and children and plays well with small-medium size dogs. He has lived with a cat with no issues, but a slow and safe introduction is necessary. He knows basic commands, but is an aggressive puller on the lead. He is an active and high-energy dog that LOVES playing fetch. He gets territorial over his ball especially if another dog steals it, but he has NO bite record- only barking to chase away dogs in his personal space. He has separation anxiety, thus he needs someone that can handle an anxious pup and has the ability to train him. Dasher is a dog that is filled to the brim with love and is a perfect fit for a family with another active, friendly dog! He is such a sweet boy!!

Story
Zenni was left at the vet clinic by a family that had to board her because they fell on hard times, then moved to where they couldn't have dogs.  Zenni is house trained and gets along well with other dogs and cats.  She is smart, affectionate and energetic. Zenni is in foster and is eager to find her forever home.  We have her spayed, current on vaccinations, and ready to go.  We have sponsorship reducing her adoption fee to $50. Our adoption application can be found at www.claycountyshelter.comClay County Animal Rescue & Shelter is located at 375 Water Elm Lane, Flora, IL. Our phone number is 618-665-3005.  We are renovating our shelter so hours are by appointment only.  The typical adoption fee for dogs is $150.  It includes vaccination, deworming , spay/neuter, heartworm testing on dogs of age and microchipping, which is now mandatory by state law.  Some dogs we discount to as little as $50 due to sponsorship.  Some dogs we ask a higher adoption fee, which helps us recoup expenses on heartworm treatment on other dogs. All cats are spayed/neutered/vaccinated/flea treated/dewormed and microchipped prior to adoption.  Cat adoption fees range from $60-$100.  We spay/neuter/microchip/vaccinate and deworm all kittens and cats, prior to adoption.  Our shyer/less adoptable cats are classed as "barn cats" and are free with a completed/approved barn cat application, which can be found on our website. For updates on adoption events and more pics of pets available, go to our website, www.claycountyshelter.com or look for us on Facebook.   August 7, 2024, 12:15 am
