**NEW ADOPTABLE ALERT**

This is NOT an April Fools joke, but Karma can make you laugh and smile anyway! 🤡
Karma is quite the happy-go-lucky pup, she's all smiles when she walks in a room and never fails to brighten our day here at the shelter. 😊😊
Feeling a little down? Karma's here to give you a kiss and chase her tail - it's hard to be sad with a little goober like her at your side!

If this sweet girl sounds like the perfect fit for you, stop by during our adoption hours!

**Update: Adopted!! ❤️

Re-introducing this sweet soul: Julie🩷🙂

Julie's journey has been a bit of a roller coaster ever since she was discovered as a stray in Glen Ellyn. The entire community united in efforts to capture her, with the police department ultimately succeeding after several days of attempts.

Upon arrival at the shelter, Julie was initially reserved, but over time, she blossomed into a loving companion, endearing herself to the staff and volunteers alike. She quickly became a favorite among all who encountered her.

Although Julie once found her forever home, unforeseen family medical challenges led to her return after a few weeks. Despite this setback, her previous adopter described her as an absolute delight to have around - well-behaved, affectionate, and always ready for a stroll. She truly was the perfect companion.

Now back at the shelter, Julie eagerly awaits her next chapter. She knows that her perfect family is out there somewhere, and she's eager to find them! Could you be the one to offer Julie the loving home she deserves? Come meet her today and see if you're the match she's been dreaming of! 🐶❤️

We'd like to give a warm welcome to All Star Pet Grooming for giving Clara here the full spa treatment! 🎀 She came to us this weekend from Oklahoma along with her mom, Angel. 💕 They were both covered in mats and burrs, and were in serious need of a bath! All Star Pet Grooming did a fabulous job helping freshen up their look! Now they're ready to hit the adoption floor, or the dance floor, or maybe the runway?! 💃

Once Clara and Angel are available for adoption, she’ll be posted on the adoptable page of our website! Visit AHConnects.org/Adopt for updates!

This morning's puppy class working on sit/stay. Nice to have motivated owners that want well-behaved family dogs. That takes time and dedication. Great group of puppies. The facility is great for training. Everyone had a good time, including the puppies. Remember training should be fun, flexible and fair.

Here's Jackson figuring out his new treat dispensing toy. Thanks to Susan and Kevin Iselli who got Jackson hooked on this toy

This is Jackson in action. It's been 15 minutes and he's still working on it.

What can I say- handsome Charlie and his parents did a great job at BFF Obedience class! Such proud parents.

Here's Mia and her parents. She's come along way since the first class but she graduated with flying colors!

Graduation week at BFF Dog Academy!! Lots of success these last few weeks. Here's Lisa and Rhett. Each team had to demonstrate what they learned in the BFF Obedience class.

Jackson with his new treat dispensing puzzle. It has 8 compartments that dispense as often as every 15 minutes. It's a great way to distract and entertain your dogs
