Meet Twix

Twix is a 2 year old male Shepherd mix who weighs in at 50 pounds.  This dog's adoption fee is $450.  If you are still interested, please read more below. Meet Twix!  Twix is a 2 year old Shepherd mix and is just as sweet as his namesake.  He came to ARF from Southern IL where he was found as a stray.  No one claimed him, but it does seem like he was someone's pet previously.  He's very friendly and affectionate and understands "sit".  He loves playing with toys, especially chasing balls and playing tug of war.  He's good with kids and is friendly with other dogs.  He is aggressive toward the cat so it is not recommended that Twix go to a house with a cat.   Twix enjoys going on walks, laying on the couch, and sitting on your lap.  He would make the perfect family pet. Twix is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations, housebroken, and neutered.  This dog's family will be required to complete a basic obedience course of their choosing.  A meeting will not be scheduled until you have an approved application, so if you are interested in adopting this dog, fill out an Online Application today!  Once your application has been approved, an ARF volunteer will contact you to arrange a meeting.

Adoption Process

This step can take up to five business days. Step 3: If your application is approved you will be invited to meet with the cat or dog you are interested in at a mutually agreed upon time and location. Step 4: We’ll walk you through the benefits of adopting through A.R.F., then complete the adoption paperwork and collect the adoption fee. Then your new best friend is yours! Step 5: Complete required follow-ups such as obedience training or spay/neuter (if delayed due to medical reasons).
