Description

Do you want to add a shaggy ball of four-legged love and affection to your family and give back to the Rockford community at the same time? Perhaps it's finally time to adopt a pet! Local shelters in and around Rockford have dogs, cats and other kinds of pets ready and waiting to be adopted. Across Illinois, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages and sizes without a home — and many of them are located not too far from you. For those looking to adopt, a great place to start your search for a lovable new friend is at Paws Humane Society, where Holly the dog is waiting patiently, or another local rescue center. If you aren't sure if you have time to take care of a pet year round, many shelters also offer opportunities to foster pets until they are placed. Need some help in your search? Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We compile a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a dog person, meet Dalton, a Terrier mix up for adoption. If cats are more your thing, there are several great cats available, too. Click on any listing for more information about a pet or to start the adoption process. Editor's note: This list was automatically generated using data compiled by Petfinder. If you're a local shelter looking to see your adoptable pets appear on Patch, you'll need to list them through Petfinder.
