Toby is a sweet and playful Australian shepherd saved from a kill shelter. He loves playing with other dogs and needs a home that has a playmate for him. Toby also needs an owner with an active lifestyle who can help him get all his energy out everyday and also requires a home with a fenced in backyard! Here's the truth of it: Toby has a bite history. Toby will be very loyal and friendly to his family he knows but he WILL display protective behaviors when visitors come over and if not crated or kept on leash will bite them. We are looking for an adopter who has experience with dogs and of course no small children in the home.
Adoption Process
All prospective adoptors must fill out an adoption application, possess a drivers license or state ID, and include a vet reference. Renters MUST include a phone number where their landlord can be reached. Same day adoptions are possible in most cases except for on Saturday after noon when vet offices are closed. In this case, your new pet will not be able to go home with you until Monday when vets office is open again and we can verify your vet reference.
As of July 2009, it became the law in the state of Illinois that all animals adopted from a rescue or shelter must be microchipped within 30 days of their adoption. This is part of the contract you will be required to sign and your responsibility to carry out and send proof to ICARe that this has been done.
All animals available for adoption are already de-wormed, spayed/neutered, vaccinated for Rabies, and twice vaccinated for Distemper. Our adoption fees are as follows: Adult cats $50; Kittens $65; Purebreed cats $75; Purebreed kittens $100; Adult dogs $75-$100, based on age and breed; Puppies, purebreeds, and designer mixes $100-$125, based on age.
