Everyone meet Indiana!

She is a 2 year old female Pit mix who came to us as a stray in October and was sadly never reclaimed. Indiana is spunky girl and a volunteer favorite! Indiana is a little on the larger side at 64 pounds, but she is very respectful of personal space and won’t go ...knocking you around. She loves to go outside and is very good on the leash! Indiana would be a wonderful addition to any home.

Indiana is a part of the BISSELL ADOPTION EVENT we are currently holding and she is anxiously awaiting her turn to go home with her forever family! Could that be you?

Now thru a limited time adoptions will be reduced to $50 for dogs, $40 for kittens, and adult cats will have a reduced fee of $20 sponsored by the BISSELL Pet Foundation ‼️ 🎄🎄

📢If you're interested in adopting, visit our website and complete an adoption questionnaire. www.winnebagoanimals.org

Our Eyewitness News pet of the week, Link, was helped us spread the word about the BISSELL Pet Foundation's Empty the Shelter Holiday Hope Event HAPPENING NOW!

Link is one of the almost 50 dogs we have available during the event! Link's story with WCAS starts when officers were ...responding to a call of a dog being dumped out of a white van and running towards the railroad tracks. Our officers were able to find Link but he was scared and ran into the river. Luckily, they were able to contain him in a fenced in area and get him safety. 2 year old Link has been with WCAS about a month and has shown to be quite the gentleman. Link walks well on a leash, and is happy to meet new people with a gentle kiss on the chin. Could he be the one for you?

“Hi friends, I’m Pikachu!

I am a 3 year old male Pit mix who came to the shelter in September as a stray and was sadly never reclaimed. I’m a petite guy weighing about 40 pounds with an electric personality and face you can’t help but fall in love with! I have excellent leash ...manners, but my special skills are sit, shake and lie down. I am a smart boy who loves treats and will make any trainer happy! My friends here think I would do well in any kind of “gym,” but I’m no Snorlax. I’m ready and raring for my next adventure with my new family!”

🎥🐾Charlie was the Pet of the Week on WIFR TV 23 with Maggie Polsean this morning .🐾🎥

Charlie, the one-year-old shepherd mix, wants to bet the apple of your eye! 🍎🍏He knows commands like SIT and loves to play fetch in the yard with this FURends. Charlie was found hanging ...out on a kind citizens front porch. He had a chip but upon further investigation it was found that he has already been rehomed 3 times in his short life. He is now hoping he can find his true forever home!

Head on over to www.winnebagoanimals.org to learn more about Charlie or fill out an application so you can visit him soon!

We have over 90 dogs currently in the building! We have a wide arrange of unique dogs with different personalities, shapes, and sizes. It's a great time to adopt! ❤🐾
