Story
Meet Marge, a 3-year-old Bulldog mix weighing 41.5 lbs! Now in a foster home, we’ve learned even more about this affectionate, playful girl. She absolutely loves attention, belly rubs, and toys—especially when she gets the zoomies! Marge is perfectly house-trained and has been a wonderful houseguest. She hasn’t been crated in her foster home, but she’s well-behaved indoors. She knows “sit” and has now learned “lie down” too! She has a fun mix of energy—she loves to play and can be quite strong when excited, but she’s also capable of settling down and relaxing with her person. On walks, she’s generally a light puller but can tug harder when she sees another dog, so she’ll do best with someone who can handle her strength. Marge hasn’t been introduced to kids or dogs yet, but based on her temperament, we expect she’d do well with both. However, when she gets the zoomies, she’s like a little freight train, so small children might need to watch out! If you’re looking for a fun, loving companion with a great mix of playfulness and snuggles, Marge could be the perfect match for you! Her adoption fee is $300 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. To be considered for adoption, you must first submit the application found at:   http://fs16.formsite.com/WishBoneCanineRescue/adoptionapplication/index.html For information about this dog's breed(s), visit: http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/abc.htm  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
Meet Roscoe, the 2-year-old Bulldog mix with a heart as big as his personality! Weighing in at 36.5 pounds, this fun-loving, goofy boy is always ready to bring a smile to your face. Despite a rough start in life, Roscoe is full of love, happiness, and playful energy. He thrives on attention and is highly food-motivated—so much so that he’ll need a slow feeder to keep his enthusiasm in check! Roscoe is known for his adorable pig-like noises instead of barks, making him extra charming. He keeps a clean kennel, loves his stuffies, and is a fantastic little friend. If you're looking for a silly, affectionate, treat-loving companion, Roscoe is your guy! His minimum adoption fee is $300 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.
