We decided we wanted a calm, medium-sized, short-haired, light-colored adult dog that was housebroken. We searched for these specifics for several months, then just dropped by the Champaign County Humane Society to check a possible dog, and the perfect dog was waiting for us there.
The staff was helpful, the cages were clean, the animals were exercised and notes were on their cages indicating who was housebroken so they could be taken out regularly to maintain this good habit. We were provided with a leash and a treat and encouraged to take him out and get to know him.
