Mookie is a 6 year-old pit bull mix. She’s lived in a foster home and is now ready for her forever home. She is sweet and playful, but she must needs be the only dog in the home. Contact the Will County Humane Society at willcountyhumane.com and follow the instructions for the adoption process.

Acorn is a sweet domestic medium-hair. She loves attention as long as people don’t pick her up. She gets along with most of the cats at the shelter. Contact the Will County Humane Society at willcountyhumane.com and follow the instructions for the adoption process.

Leroy is a 1-year-old shepherd that was rescued from a local animal control. He is very friendly and has a lot of happy, puppy energy. He enjoys the outdoors and seems to like everyone he meets. He is smart and eager to please, but he needs an adopter who will continuing his training. To meet Leroy, email Dogadoptions@nawsus.org. Visit nawsus.org.

Flipper is a 1-year-old that was rescued from a high kill shelter. He is a little shy initially but relaxes when given gentle attention. Win him over with chin/cheek/back scratches – he loves those. He also loves other cats. He will be a wonderful addition to a home if given a little patience to adjust. Please email Catadoptions@nawsus.org with any questions or to meet him.
