Meet Bellamy – The Curious Sniffer Extraordinaire!
Bellamy is a spirited and delightful young Shepherd/hound mix, overflowing with curiosity and charm. Every ounce of her energetic, clever genes is put to work as she explores the world around her! On walks, Bellamy is a true adventurer—nose to the ground, tail held high—following every intriguing scent from start to finish. Give her the freedom, and she could happily wander and sniff for hours on end!
This inquisitive girl is a quick learner who loves to figure things out. She often surprises her humans by offering all of her known cues at once, hoping her extra effort will earn her an extra cookie—or two! Bellamy’s intelligence shines through in her playful eagerness to learn and engage.
Bellamy is well-mannered and house-trained, knows her basic commands, and is crate-trained. She is learning to perfect her leash manners, too. While she’s not one to share her meals (honestly, who is?), she’s perfectly content enjoying her food in peace. Bellamy truly thrives as the one-and-only furry companion in the home—she loves being the center of attention and knows exactly how to make her humans feel lucky to have her around!
Bellamy is the perfect blend of curiosity, intelligence, and affection—a sparkling personality just waiting to brighten her forever home!

Meet JoJo!
This 3-year-old sweetheart may be a bit shy when you first meet him, but with a little patience and kindness, he’ll soon show you his gentle, loving nature. Once JoJo feels safe, he enjoys quiet companionship and soft pets—especially from people who let him come around at his own pace.
JoJo has a wonderfully silly side, too! He loves playing with his five resident cat friends and respectfully gives larger dogs their space. He’s often found splashing in the kitty fountain, batting around balls, or entertaining himself with other toys. JoJo is very communicative and will happily chirp and meow to say hello or announce his presence.
In the evenings, he enjoys settling on the couch nearby, soaking up your company. JoJo is a sensitive soul who will thrive in a calm, caring home where he can truly relax and be himself. If you’re looking for a loyal friend who will blossom with love and time, JoJo is your guy! 🐾
Stop in and meet my cute self in person during our adoption hours. For more information, email info@ahconnects.org or call us at 847-697-2880 x: 0, and the staff will be happy to help you.
