🌟🐾 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!

👉Tuesday, September 29th's ...Paw-some Pick is Blue A0061553683!

Blue is a beautiful 5-month-old pup weighing 41 pounds who is ready to find a family to grow up with!

Blue came to us as an owner surrender after her previous family shared that they could no longer afford to care for her. While that wasn't the fresh start anyone had hoped for, Blue is now looking forward to finding a family who will give her the love, stability, and care she deserves.

During her time at WCAS, Blue successfully completed a dog introduction with another dog. The two sniffed each other appropriately and then walked around the yard together on dropped leashes with no signs of aggression or discomfort. It's always great to see a young dog like Blue having positive experiences with potential canine friends!

At just 5 months old, Blue has her whole life ahead of her and so much to learn, explore, and experience. She's looking for a family who is ready for all the fun, patience, training, and love that come with raising a puppy.🐱🐶✨

❤Remember Canelo???❤

Canelo came to WCAS as a stray in March of this year and was never reclaimed by an owner. Thankfully, this sweet guy didn’t have to wait long to find his family!
Just a couple of weeks after entering our care, Canelo ...was adopted!
We’re so happy Canelo didn’t have to spend any more time in the shelter than necessary—and even happier that he’s now exactly where he belongs. Happy tails, Canelo!❤️

Canelo's adopter shared these great photos and this wonderful update with us!
🐾This is Canelo, he was adopted back in April by my husband and I. He’s been camping and boating and even hanging out with our show horses! His favorite thing to do is go to the fire station and hang out. He’s been an amazing addition to our family and we wouldn’t have it any other way. He came home weighing 33 pounds and now he’s blossomed to 66 pounds and is very active. He has the best big brother to teach him the ropes. Canelo is the best boy and we can’t wait to celebrate his second birthday in December💕 🐾

🌟🐾 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, September 28th's ...Paw-some Pick is Bitsy A0061545830!

Bitsy is a 4-year-old girl weighing 60 pounds who is ready to find a family to call her own. She came to Winnebago County Animal Services as a stray and, unfortunately, was never reclaimed.

Bitsy has had the opportunity to meet another dog while she’s been with us. During her intro with Marigold, Bitsy was initially calm and comfortable while Marigold showed lots of excitement from the other side of the fence. Once they were brought into the same yard, both dogs were a little stiff while taking time to sniff and check each other out. After they finished their initial introductions, Marigold was interested in playing with Bitsy. Bitsy would engage in some play but would also choose to walk away when she was ready for a break.

Bitsy seems to appreciate taking things at her own pace when meeting new canine friends. If you think this sweet girl might be the companion you’ve been looking for, come meet Bitsy during our open hours!🐱🐶✨

❤Remember Goob???❤

Goob came to WCAS as an owner surrender due to his owner citing that they were experiencing landlord issues and they could no longer keep him. Thankfully, Goob did not have to wait long for adoption - just 4 days after entering... our care, he was adopted!❤️

Goob's adopter shared these great photos and this wonderful update with us!
🐾I adopted Goob around a month or two ago. He is the most affectionate, clingy, playful cat I’ve ever seen. He is an amazing addition to my home. Every time I come home from a long shift on the ambulance, I see him and it makes every hard day worth it. He enjoys his cardboard boxes, piles of toys, his window perch, and chasing his tail. He loves lounging about after playing with his bird feather. Every morning I wake up with him snuggling close. 💕 🐾

❤Remember Henri (now Aries)???❤

Aries came to WCAS in late May of this year as a stray and, unfortunately, was never reclaimed by an owner. He patiently waited for his chance at a forever home for more than three months—a long time for any ...shelter resident to wait for their happy ending.
Thankfully, Aries' patience finally paid off! After more than three months of waiting, he found his forever home and got to leave WCAS with his very own family.

Aries' adopter shared these great photos and this wonderful update with us!
🐾Hi, just thought I'd let you guys know Henri ( now Aries) is doing great. He is very high energy. lol but such a good boy and tries really hard. He's learned to be housebroken in a week and a half and is very active going on runs with me and his dog sister. He is settling in to home life great and loves taking naps on the couch with his cat siblings even allowing him to lay next to them sometimes. lol. Have a great day! 💕 🐾
