Meet Sam
Sam is a very friendly miniature poodle looking for a home. His former family moved here all the way from Venezuela and brought Sam with them into the United States! Once they got here for a myriad of reasons they decided they didn't want him any longer and surrendered him to the shelter. Upon arrival to the shelter, Sam was found to be very under weight and nails over grown. His undercarriage is also all stained yellow from the former owners keeping a diaper on him 24/7. He is now in a foster home where he gets along great with the other small dogs and cats that are there. He's also eating really well and slowly gaining back needed weight. His nails have been properly trimmed too! Sam is NOT fully house broken so his future adopter will need to be willing to work with him on that. If interested, please fill out the online application at the below link: https://forms.gle/dRoSRegYwd5jxbNU8 Prospective adopters must have a verifiable positive veterinary history. A fenced in back yard is preferred.
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.
