👀🚨Do you know any of these dogs (or this chicken)?🚨👀

‼️We took in 32 dogs since Friday and currently have over 100 dogs at our facility‼️
Our dog kennels are currently at maximum capacity - we are urgently hoping to reunite these dogs with their families.

...👉If you believe one of these dogs is yours, please call us at 815-319-4100 and one of our call takers can speak with you about next steps OR stop by our facility.

👉We're open today (Monday 8/3) until 7pm.

👉Some of these dogs are available for preselect adoption, which means that although the dog is still on their stray hold period and awaiting reclaim by their owner, an interested adopter is able to complete an adoption application and pay the fee to pre-select the animal for adoption. If the dog is not reclaimed, the adoption is finalized and the dog can go home as soon as they're spayed/neutered.

🌟🐾 Paw-some Pick of the Day! 🐾🌟

We’re shining the spotlight on our pets with something special: each day, one amazing pet will be featured as our Paw-some Pick of the Day — and for that day only, their adoption fee is waived!

👉Monday, August 3rd's Paw-some... Pick is Colette A0061023518!

Colette is a 3-year-old, 46-pound dog who came to WCAS as a stray and was never reclaimed by an owner. Because her history before arriving at the shelter is unknown, we're still learning about her personality and what makes her unique.

One thing we've already discovered is that Colette enjoys the company of other dogs. During a dog introduction with another female dog, she responded well to correction and showed appropriate social behavior. As she became more comfortable, Colette even initiated play, giving staff a glimpse of her fun-loving side.

While we may not know much about Colette's past, we'd love your help discovering her future. The best way to get to know her is to come meet her in person and see if she's the right fit for your family and lifestyle.🐱🐶✨

👉Saturday, August 1st's ...Paw-some Pick is Bubbles A0061275416!

Bubbles came to us after their previous owner made the decision to surrender them due to them citing inadequate housing and having too many pets. Through no fault of their own, Bubbles is now looking for a loving family and a place to call home.

While in our care, Bubbles successfully completed a dog introduction with another dog here at the shelter, showing they can interact appropriately with canine companions. Every dog is unique, and we encourage adopters to bring any resident dogs along for a meet-and-greet to help ensure a good fit.

Now all Bubbles needs is a second chance with a family who will provide love, stability, and plenty of happy memories. If you think Bubbles could be the perfect addition to your home, stop by during our open adoption hours to meet them and all of the wonderful pets waiting for their forever families.🐱🐶✨

‼🎉ADOPTION UPDATE!🎉‼

❤Remember Cob & Anya (now Peanut)???❤

Both Cob and Peanut came to WCAS as tiny kittens with their respective litters—Cob in early June and Peanut in early May of this year. Since they were too young to stay at the shelter, they and their ...littermates spent some time growing up in a loving foster home until they were big enough to return to WCAS and begin their search for forever families.

Earlier this month, Cob and Peanut’s worlds collided in the best possible way—they were adopted into the same home! 🐾❤️

It’s clear these two have settled right in and are living their very best lives with their new family. We couldn’t be happier that their journeys brought them together and that they get to continue growing up side-by-side in a loving forever home.

Happy tails, Cob and Peanut! We’re so excited for all the adventures ahead. 🐱💕

🐾Hello! We recently adopted Cob & Anya (now Peanut). Cob is very snuggly and loves lots of attention from anyone willing to snuggle. Peanut is also very snuggly, although she prefers to sleep in her bed or anywhere cozy. At first they weren’t sure about each other but after a short few days, they have become best friends. They love running around playing with each other & having lots of wrestling matches followed by lots of naps. Thank you WCAS for helping us find our furry friends! We love them so much! ❤️ 🐾
