Barely Used Pets (dog)
November is Adopt a Senior Dog Month. Lucie is one of our seniors. She is an 8-year-old Rottweiler Shepherd mix. A kind-hearted person took her in, but her 2 young German Shepherds were too much for her. She is a kind, quiet old soul. She walks well on a leash, is house-trained, spayed and loves kids. She didn’t appear to have any health problems when checked by our vet. She is up to date on shots and heartworm-free. In honor of Senior Month Lucie ‘s adoption fee is $125. We also offer Lucie in our Senior to Senior program.

PAWS Animal Shelter (cat)
Please meet Domino, who has been at the shelter since February of 2016 and has found himself in the position of office manager. He shares the office with the shelter manager. He is just as handsome as can be and is friendly to everyone he meets. He’s 5 years old and would do well in just about any home. He loves to bird-watch out the windows. He does have a special food for urinary care that his new owners will need to be aware of. Just call the shelter and they’ll tell you all about it. Domino is neutered and up to date on all of his vaccines. Please stop by the shelter and meet him today!

Champaign County Animal Welfare League (dog)
The Champaign County Animal Welfare League (CCAWL) Pet of the Week is Dexter, a 5-year-old Pekingese/Chihuahua mix who came to us as an owner surrender. Dexter may be small, but he has a big personality. Dexter is dog friendly, but hasn’t been cat tested and we can do that if needed. He is spunky, playful and loving once he gets to know you. However, he would do best in a home with no small children. Dexter is house-trained, neutered, microchipped and current on vaccinations: Da2PPL, Bordetella, Bivalent Flu and Rabies. Dexter has been tested negative for heartworm and has been dewormed as well as current on flea and heartworm prevention. If you would like Dexter to be a part of your family, you must have an approved application, which can be found on our webpage https://www.champaigncoanimalwelfareleague.com/ccawl-residents or pick one up at our facility during business hours. For all of our other canine listings, you may check out adoptapet.com and petfinder.com.

This fee covers spay/neuter, Da2PPL, Bivalent Flu, Bordetella, Rabies (age appropriate), Worming, Heart Worm Test, Flea and Heart Worm Prevention and Microchip.
