Isn't she cute? And she's the sweetest friendliest little puppy going. Bean was rescued with her littermates from the rough scene before the ice storm hit, where her mama was tied to a barrel. We were right to think the puppies wouldn't have made it through the storm. We treated them here and think that they are finally close to ready to go to their new homes! I held off taking photos until recently, but I just adore this little puppy. I will weigh her, but she might weigh five pounds? Not sure, but she is quite small at about ten weeks old.

Chihuahua mixed mom was under 15 lbs.

Clay County Animal Rescue & Shelter is located at 375 Water Elm Lane, Flora, IL. Our phone number is 618-665-3005.  We are renovating our shelter so hours are by appointment only. 

The typical adoption fee for dogs is $150.  It includes vaccination, deworming , spay/neuter, heartworm testing on dogs of age and microchipping, which is now mandatory by state law.  Some dogs we discount to as little as $50 due to sponsorship.  Some dogs we ask a higher adoption fee, which helps us recoup expenses on heartworm treatment on other dogs.

All cats are spayed/neutered/vaccinated/flea treated/dewormed and microchipped prior to adoption.  Cat adoption fees range from $60-$100.  We spay/neuter/microchip/vaccinate and deworm all kittens and cats, prior to adoption.  Our shyer/less adoptable cats are classed as "barn cats" and are free with a completed/approved barn cat application, which can be found on our website.
