Our shelter partners in the south are overcrowded. This overcrowding is the worst it's been in quite a long time. They are inundated with dogs that have been discarded through no fault of their own. To make matters worse, the flooding in the south means that there are even more dogs that now need to be moved to shelters in the north.
Safe Haven would like to help these dogs and puppies by bringing them to Illinois on Friday 6/7. We don’t have a physical location, so we rely on the generosity of our community to open their homes to these dogs while they find thier families.
Here are some of the souls hoping to hitch a ride to freedom:All of these dogs are good with dogs and people!

Biscuit - Male Mix. Unfortunately he is HW+and will require treatment. This is a 2-3 month commitment. HW will not harm your other dogs as long as they are on HW Preventative. These are the dogs that get looked over at the shelter. He's a friendly guy who would like a chance.
Brownie - Male Mix, About 2 years old. He HATES the shelter! He likes other dogs and is a little timid of new people but warms up. The shelter environment is really hard on this boy!
Snickers - Female Hound Mix. She is as sweet as her name and loking for love. She enjoys playing with other dogs and really dislikes the chaos of the shelter.
Dora- Female, Chesapeake Bay Retriever mix, about 2 years old and super sweet. Just 45lbs!
Joby- Look how cool he looks! He's a 40lb mix and a shelter favorite
