Story
Meet Sissy, a delightful 9-year-old with a heart as big as her 90-pound frame. Sissy's foster parents recently had a DNA test done, and it turns out she's not an Anatolian Shepherd mix after all. She is still  a proud member of the Guardian Breed family, but she is 66.5% Great Pyrenees and 33.5% Sarplaninac (we had to look that one up!). This resilient girl may only have three legs, but she moves around with grace and ease, preferring homes with limited stairs. Despite her past challenges, Sissy’s spirit remains unbroken, and she has blossomed in her foster home, thriving alongside fellow senior dogs in peaceful coexistence. Sissy is the epitome of a sweetheart, exuding calmness and affection. She is house and crate trained, though she's still mastering the command for going to her crate. While she hasn’t been around children in our care, her gentle nature suggests she would do well with older, calmer kids who can respect her desire for a quiet, serene environment. Sissy is currently Heartworm positive, but don't let that deter you! Heartworm disease is not contagious to other dogs, as it is transmitted through the bite of an infected mosquito. Sissy would love nothing more than to be in her forever home while undergoing treatment. Rest assured, Wish Bone will provide all the necessary treatment to ensure she gets healthy and happy. This loving tri-pod adores being around her humans, whether it’s to share a moment of companionship or simply to find a cozy spot for a nap. Sissy is looking for a forever home where she can enjoy her golden years in tranquility, surrounded by love. If you’re searching for a sweet, chill companion who will warm your heart every day, Sissy is the perfect match for you. Her minimum adoption fee is $295 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives. For information about this dog's breed(s), visit: http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/abc.htm To fill out our adoption application, go to: http://fs16.formsite.com/WishBoneCanineRescue/adoptionapplication/index.html Wish Bone Canine Rescue  1303 Morrissey Drive Bloomington, IL 61701 www.wishbonecaninerescue.org           Since its our desire that you have a pet you can enjoy a lifetime of love with you, we take special measures to ensure that the pet is the best match for you and your family.  We require that you complete our online www.wishbonecaninerescue.org (Please give us 24 hours to verify your information).

Story
Disney is a 7 year old male. He has been waiting for his perfect home for a very long time. He is a good boy most of the time but can present some challenges which include the behavior of an untrained, goofy puppy at times. We have learned what triggers that behavior and how to avoid and stop it. Disney is our Peter Pan Pyr. He can't seem to 100% grow up, still loves toys and is a fun happy boy. Disney has matured into a very handsome 90 pounds. We will be looking for an experienced adult only home committed to house training (manners) and working obedience into his everyday life. He needs structure and routine. Disney does have house expereince, is fine in a crate for a reasonable length of time, loves car rides and is quite the affectionate boy. He is good for the groomer and vet, walks well on leash with the right collar and does well with most other dogs. Even though he is good with most all other dogs he prefers human attention. His best match will be as an only dog home with play dates or doggy day care to give him some canine socialization. If placed with another dog, a resident female would be his best match. Please contact us if interested in adopting, fostering to adopt or fostering. Adoption info and application can be found at gprci.com Securely fenced yard for safe outside potty and play time will be required.

Story
This beautiful young man deserves a very soft place to land. He came to us at the first of the year as a victim of being caught in a domestic abuse situation. He arrived severely emaciated weighing in at 42 pounds, shy with new people and frightened of men in particular. He has come so far in such a short time but will need patience and TLC to continue his journey back to fully trusting that life is good. Buster now weighs in at 75 pounds and is an energetic, playful youngster. He is still shy with strangers at first but once acquainted, is just the sweetest boy. His best match long term, if placed in a home with a resident dog, will be a female canine companion (spayed of course) and securely fenced yard will be required for safe outside daytime. He has lived with children of all ages and is reportedly fine with cats. If interested in adopting Buster please visit gprci.com and complete an adoption application. Email gprci.info@gmail.com with any questions.

Story
Chevy is a super nice 3 year old female Great Pyrenees mix. She and her sister ended up in our rescue program when, even after we helped with vet care and boarding so they could hopefully stay with their previous owner, it just didn't work out. Her sister has been adopted but Chevy is still waiting to catch some lucky adopter's eye. Yes, yes I know she doesn't look much like a Pyr, but she is, according to her DNA results, 70% Great Pyrenees. The other 30% is 1-4% each of 11 different breeds. Will be happy to share those results with serious inquiries. She has a shorter coat with lots of color that will take less maintenance than a full Pyr coat. Chevy is very smart and more responsive and obedient than most purebred Great Pyrs. Chevy is fully vetted, house trained, walks well on leash, rides well in the car, and is sweet and gentle with adults and children. She is good with other dogs and would match up as a companion and playmate to just about any male dog. She has lived with small dogs (Chihuahuas) and is familiar with horses. Not great with chickens or cats. Chevy will be placed as a family companion with inside privileges. She loves people and affection. A securely fenced yard will be required. Adoption info and an adoption application can be found at gprci.com and questions can be emailed to gprci.info@gmail.com

Story
51% was Great Pyrenees from a DNA test! Jeremy is very cuddly and his fur is so fluffy and soft. He loved playing with his sister before she was adopted, so he would do great in a home with another dog. He also loves playing with the kids in his foster home. His favorite toys are a puppy chew bone, his ball, and squeaky toys. He plays tug of war and we're working on learning fetch. He just likes to hit the ball around and chase it right now.

Story
I rescued Bunker from an abusive situation. When I received him, he was 58 lbs, and you could see his ribs and hips. He just had his yearly exam, and he is now 77 lbs, updated on shots and heart worm negative. Even though he had a rough start he is a big lover. He has the personality of the Burmese Mountain, calm, laid back, follows me everywhere. He is great indoor, but he likes to be outside to chase squirrels, rabbits, and maybe cats. I believe him to be about 4 years old. He is also good with the neighbors' children, and will need a large, fenced yard for exercise.
