Meet Tori



Meet Tori
This sweet girl has the biggest heart and the softest eyes, she just wants a human (or humans!) to call her own. Tori adores people and gives her whole heart to them. She’s happiest soaking up love, attention, and a good belly rub.
Tori would thrive as the only pet in her home, she wants to be your one and only!
If you’ve been waiting for a loyal, affectionate companion to brighten your days, Tori’s waiting to meet you.
Okay, seriously… how is Tori still single? Look at that face. She’s the queen of sidewalk struts, professional flower sniffer, and her smile alone could brighten your whole week!
She’s the absolute perfect mix of sparkling personality and sweetness! Tori is your new best friend, cuddle buddy, and partner in crime all in one!!
If you’re ready to add a little fabulous energy (and a lot of love) to your life, Tori’s your girl.
Tori is fully vetted, spayed & chipped. Tori is a SOLO dog & would do best in the home as the only 4 legged. She’s a solid 65lbs, loves people, loves her walks, is a top notch co pilot & so very deserving of a home to call her own.
Tori said “Listen… thick girls cuddle better. It’s science.”

Meet Nya

You might remember our beautiful Akita Layla, nka Nya, that came into lock up in November.

Nya was adopted at Thanksgiving. Sadly, she is being returned
Her Daddy is keeping her until we can find a new home for her.
Nya is 6 years old & sweet as can be. It hurts our hearts knowing she has to leave her new home
& new Daddy. We are seeking an adopter with Akita experience.

Meet Pepper



Introducing Pepper
This little Chili Pepper found himself in lockup with his pal, Wizard.
He gave us quite a scare when he slipped out of his leash & went out for a little joy run Thank God he was found!
Do you want to know how we found him? We brought his sidekick Wizard out while searching for him & what do you know? He came running to his friend
Pep is a little scrapper weighing in at 32lbs. He loves other dogs, vaccinated & ready to move along. As mentioned in Wizards post, it would be wonderful if we could find a family willing to adopt both. ***NOT a deal breaker if not.
He is one happy boy! He gets so excited for his walks & he skips right along! He loves his pack walks most.

Meet Maeve


Maeve came into lock up in April of 2023. She was transferred to a no kill shelter in Grayslake shortly after arriving in Blue Island. She is being cared for & is loved very much by the wonderful folks at Save-A-Pet.
Sadly, Maeve is still waiting for her happily ever after She’s been waiting almost 3 YEARS.
Maeve is an 8 year old pointer mix. She’s fully vetted, self sufficient & just needs a home of her own. She has shown to do okay with other dogs, however, due to her long residence in a shelter,
a home without other dogs would be ideal for this senior girl.
Interested in learning more about Maeve?
Please contact Save a Pet for further information or feel free to contact us & we’ll connect you with them.
Maeve was NOT a senior when she was transferred.
Please someone let this girl experience the good life in her golden years.

Meet Reggie


Reggie - A boy with his toy
Our gentle giant Reggie will be looking for a home very soon. He is just a chill young boy, loves his walks, loves his toys, not a huge fan of cars as of now, but who can blame him?
Last time he was in a car was when he was let out & abandoned.
Although we don’t know what his past was, we DO know his future is all gravy. This boy will never go hungry, will never be abandoned & will be cared for like one of our own until his new family finds him.
Adoption fee includes their spay/neuter, rabies, chip, HW, distemper & poop test.
