Story
Charlie Brown is our resident Peanut! He is a small handsome gentle boy. He loves everyone and everything. He even enjoyed being in a mile marathon on his first outing and had to say hi to all the other dogs and people. He is about 8mo old and is very smart. He loves his play group and makes friends super fast. He would make a great 2nd family dog. He listens well and doesn't want to upset anyone. He is ready for a home though! He has the cutest face! Call 815-6262994 for more information. Or stop in and visit us at 1408 McNeil Rd RockFalls IL

Story
Who wants to adopt or foster a sweet girl?! Portia, a beautiful 2-year-old female dog, was discovered as a stray and brought to a shelter where she faced extreme stress. Just hours away from being euthanized, Happy Tails tagged her and a compassionate foster stepped in to save her life. Portia embodies the perfect combination of intelligence, tranquility, and companionship. She is built like an athletic and would be a perfect jogging, dock diving, or hiking partner. She has learned several commands and is a joy to walk on a leash. Her calm demeanor extends to car rides, where she behaves wonderfully, and her love for treats makes training sessions enjoyable and effective. While she interacts well with other calm dogs, she tends to shy away from overly energetic or pushy playmates. Portia has also shown a gentle disposition around children, making her an ideal companion for families with respectful kids who can appreciate her sweet nature. This lovely girl is ready to find her forever home, where she can thrive in a loving environment. She can not live with cats however. If you're interested in adopting or fostering Portia, contact Happy Tails or message us on Facebook! 815-626-2994

Story
Welcome Kiki! This sweet 4 year old is nothing but pure sweetness. Her owners took her to the Animal Control in St. Louis and relinquished her for personal reasons. However, it seems she must have battled someone or something due to some marks and scars on her. She is still a beautiful black and white pitty mix who is medium sized. She walks well on a leash; she is housetrained and is dog friendly. Kids are an unknown at this time, but she has a great personality, and we don't see it as a problem. She really deserves a home and would make a great family dog!

Story
Perfect Parker is now available! She is a beautiful onyx pitty mix with a stunning white chest. She is 2 yrs old and a people lover. She has the typical pitty feature of strength and stamina. She was a stray at a rural MO pound that was going to be euthanized after 3 days. So, not much about her past is known. Since she has been with us she is a great girl. She keeps her kennel clean and just wants to hang out with people. Pleas come and meet her soon.

Story
KC is a sweet, social dog who walks well on leash, appears housetrained, and has done well making new dog friends at our shelter! She's attentive to her human friends and already knows a few cues! Come meet the lovely KC today! ‌ KC is the MVP of snuggles and squeaky toys, and your ticket to having a star player on your home team! Named after the heart of the Midwest, KC is a 60-pound, 5-year-old sweetheart with all the charm and manners you’d expect from a Kansas City legend. She came to the APA as an owner surrender when her family faced financial hardships, but she’s been showing her foster mom what an all-star companion she truly is for the past two months⭐️ KC is potty trained, crate trained, and knows several cues—she’s basically the Patrick Mahomes of good house manners! With her low-to-medium energy, she’s happy to chill on the couch with her humans, but she’s always game for a long walk or a chest scritching session. Her favorite plays? Curling into an adorably tiny fur ball for naps, parading her squeaky stuffies, and soaking up all the love from her favorite people. While she enjoyed playgroups at the shelter, KC’s foster home is pet-free, and she’s been thriving in her solo-star role. She gets a little anxious on the leash, so a home with a fenced yard or a family that can take her on quieter walks would be a winning setup. She might pull a bit when starting her walk but soon settles into a nice rhythm—just like a perfectly timed touchdown run! KC is sweet, affectionate, and ready to find her forever family.
