Safe Haven Dog Rescue is seeking loving foster homes THIS Saturday 9/21 for our HOMECOMING Transport!
The dogs and puppies listed are in Tennessee and in desperate need of rescue. We would like to bring them here to Illinois, but we need committed foster homes first. Please take a moment to read about these hopeful dogs and puppies to see if you, or someone you know, would be interested in opening your home to foster. These pups deserve a HOMECOMING!
Blu – She is a one year old Blu Black Lab mix. She’s about 50lbs and all legs! She has been spayed, microchipped, and is up to date on vaccines. She’s the perfect mix of chill and playful! She is also dog friendly, crate trained and housebroken. She knows how to sit, shake, lie down, and be awesome. Super kissy and sweet!

Doris – Female Yellow Lab Mix about 2 years old and 40lbs. She was shy and unsure of "us humans" when she arrived at the shelter, but has decided that there are good people in the world and we aren't so bad after all. She has quickly become one of the shelter favorites. Her best day ever is when she is being petted and loved. Unfortunately she is heartworm positive and will need treatment that Safe Haven will provide. It is not contagious to the other dogs in your home as long as they are on heartworm preventative.
Bubba -Male mix…possibly Pointer or Heeler, Estimated age 8-10 months and 76lbs. This boy's only crime was growing up to be bigger than his owner thought he would be when he got him as a puppy, so much for unconditional love! He is a beautiful dog, but his photos cannot capture his handsomeness! You should see him with his perked up ears! He is extremely sweet and loves to be petted. Hi is a big lug who is willing and eager to learn.

Link-Male, mixed breed, about 8 months old and 35lbs. talk about a Heinz 57, this little fella's DNA is anybody's guess! What we do know is he is a gorgeous brindle, cute as a button and as sweet as can be. His long legs and long lean body are ready to play fetch or frisbee. He is full of fun, loves humans, plays well with other dogs and LOVES attention.
Polly – Oh my gosh, look at this beautiful girl! She is a Chocolate Lab mix about 2 years old. She has all the typical lab traits…loving, goofy, and eager to learn. Who wants to give her a chance to find a forever family?
Scout- Male, Terrier/hound mix, about 12-16 weeks old. Scout is so timid! He was dumped at the shelter and was extremely malnourished, you could see every rib! He is slowly gaining weight and learning to trust humans, but he has clearly been neglected and let down by people. When he first arrived, he would stay in the back of his crate and just hang his head when spoken to. He is coming out of his shell, a little bit at a time, and had actually ventured out of his open crate door to be closer to people.
Darcy - About 1.5 years old. This sweetheart is the mom of London, one of the puppies that we brought to Illinois a few weeks ago. She is good with other dogs and humans and would love to pack her bags and come north. Would you be willing to let her crash at your house until she finds her forever family?
Safe Haven provides you with everything you need while you foster. You also have the first option to adopt the dog in your care.
