Maddie was born in foster to a mama beagle mix who came to the shelter pregnant.  We raised Maddie and her siblings and adopted them all out.

Maddie, however, has been returned so we can find her another home.  At six months old, she is bouncy and full of energy, just as all good puppies are. 

Maddie is housetrained and only has an occasional accident, we are told.  She loves to run and play and would do well with a fenced in yard and an active family.

Maddie loves cuddling with her people and is very loving.

Here's hoping we can find a forever home for this sweet girl, Maddie. 

I've included pics from her at two weeks old, her two month old pics, three month old pics when she was a butterfly in the Halloween parade and greeted everyone along the way with butterfly kisses, and her pics just a few days ago on the daily dog walk/romp in the snow. 

Maddie's adoption fee is $150 with a completed/approved adoption application.

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.
