Little Lovely Luna, yes little at 75ish pounds, is a super sweet and silly girl that catches the eye of people everywhere she goes. Her hippo like look and couch potato personality always collects admirers. And she is here for it! Luna is a social girl that loves meeting people, and especially loves men. Being able to spend time with the people she loves is of top priority to our beauty queen. When she isn't asking for love or giving you the most gentle kisses, she loves bully sticks to chew. Luna will take a squeaky toy but is not really sure what to do with them. Maybe shell figure it out one day! Luna knows sit and takes cookies and treats so softly. This is such an important skill when living in a home with children and she just seems to be such a natural at it. Luna likes exploring new things but prefers to have someone by her side while she does so. She is still warming up to items like vacuums, but then again we all know a dog who has an arch nemesis vacuum in their home, too! Some of her favorite activities outside of being the best house hippo there is is being in her backyard chasing cicadas. She keeps her crate clean and likes to listen to piano music while in it. Luna would do fine as a single dog, but could also share the home with a dog that is a good fit for her. Luna enjoys hanging out with her foster mom in her office, on her blanket of course. She also is child friendly and loves to snuggle with her fosters 9-year-old son. Give little Lovely Luna a chance, and her endless devotion and silly nature will keep you smiling every day. The adoption fee for Luna is $400. This donation helps to cover veterinary expenses including spay/neuter, microchip and vaccinations. Wish Upon a Rescue is a 501(c)3 non-profit, foster based animal rescue. If you would like to meet Luna please complete our adoption questionnaire at www.wishuponarescue.org/adopt.

Billy

American Staffordshire Terrier Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Male, 4 yrs 1 mo

Naperville, IL

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Billy, Billy, Billy! The favorite amongst police officers. Our baby boy is the most handsome guy with piercing greyish eyes and a personality as big as the moon! Billy was a stray that was never claimed and sat for months in the police station. We were luckily able to find a great foster home for him and he has now completed 8 sessions of training with our hand-picked trainer for manners and leash walking. He will need continued work on greeting people and leash walking - FYI. He knows sit, kennel, paw, stay, and down and is house-trained, crate-trained and is working on a release command. Billy is a foodie and his favorite things to eat are....STRAWBERRIES AND BLUEBERRIES! This dude loves people and he especially loves his human foster sister who is 8 yrs old. He is good with kids and loves to be in the center of their shenanigans. He isn't fond of other animals so he must be in a home with no other dogs or cats. Children should be sturdy or 5 and up. He is known to steal kids toys as his own, but my mom always said that if its on the floor, its fair game! The human neighbors like to play with Billy over the fence. He brings his ball to the fence where the neighbor will pick up and throw the ball for hours with him. Billy likes to Netflix and nap, get belly rubs, play fetch, and eat chicken jerky! Billy also has some funny quirks - he makes alien sounds, likes to flip his water bowl or food bowl to let you know he's empty, he will let you know he has to potty when he won't get out of your personal space. Billy is learning to be less mouthy - so an assortment of chew toys, non-rawhide bones and licky mats are a must.

Story

Please adopt me: I’m Jax, and I’ve been waiting for someone like you. I’ve faced more hardship in my short life than most dogs ever should. Abandoned multiple times because my owner struggled with mental health and addiction, I’ve been let down by the very people who were supposed to care for me. But I haven’t given up hope. I’m a 2-4 year old Staffordshire Terrier mix, neutered, up-to-date on all my shots, and I’ve been in training for the past 2 ½ weeks, learning how to be the best companion I can be. I’m smart, eager to please, and all I want is a chance to show someone just how loving and loyal I can be. I’m also a gorgeous, high-energy Staffordshire Lab mix who thrives in an active environment—perfect for someone who loves long walks, runs, and hikes. Do you have a fenced-in backyard? I would love to play ball with you! I get along well with other dogs and people, making me an ideal companion. After enduring an uncertain and chaotic past, I’m ready for a safe, stable home where I can finally feel secure. If you’re looking for a dog who will be forever grateful for a warm bed, kind words, and a steady hand, I’m your boy. I’ve been waiting for a fresh start with someone who will love me unconditionally. Will you be the one to give me the happy home I’ve been longing for? Come meet me at the adoption event, and I promise you’ll see the resilience and love in my eyes. I’m ready to start a new chapter with you—one filled with security, care, and endless love. ##2148034##

Zane

American Staffordshire Terrier Mixed Breed (Medium)

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

FAST FACTS: Large Mixed Breed, 5 years old, approximately 64 Pounds Outgoing, Loving, Sweet, Cuddly, Smart Medium to High Energy People Friendly (kids =10 years because of his size) Must Be Only Pet Greetings from your friend Zane. My happy, smiling face may look familiar to you, as I've been on the NAHS website for quite a while. Why I haven't found my forever home by now is puzzling, because I'm such a good, sweet boy, with a gentle temperament and the biggest, warmest, most loving heart. My favorite indoor activity is snuggling-ideally on your lap (don't worry, I'll make myself fit) or at the very least, pressed as close to you as possible. I'm also an all-purpose helper around the house. Folding laundry? I'll watch. Straightening up? I'll follow you from room-to-room. Cooking? I'll be your taste-tester extraordinaire! My favorite outdoor activity is whatever you want to do! Really, I'm up for anything, including long walks and hikes (I have good leash manners), playing fetch with a ball or frisbee, and riding shotgun in the car while you run errands (hint: the Starbucks drive-thru gives out free pup cups). Here are a few other facts about me. I enjoy making new human friends wherever I go. But because of my size, I might be too much for little ones, and a home with older kids would be best. Finally, I have to be an only pooch in the house, as I'm dog reactive. The NAHS staff thinks my reactivity may subside once I'm out of the shelter environment, but it's something you'll have to work on with me. Summing up, I'm a gentle, loving, happy, sweet, big-hearted guy who dreams of being your best canine companion through all of life's adventures. Are you ready to team up? Then please fill out an adoption application right away because I can't wait to meet you! Love and licks, Zane
