Bristol - Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Wheeling, Illinois

Bristol is at our shelter. Submit an application from our website, or just come in to meet her during our open hours!

Adorable little Bristol and her three brothers arrived to us from a partner shelter in Alabama. Bristol loves life in our puppy room with her two brothers, Kent and Dorset, and can more than hold her own with them! She is playful, sweet, curious...everything you could want in a puppy, all wrapped up in this tiny and perfect package! She is the goofiest pup of the litter for sure. She is a total ham, and her antics will keep you laughing.

Bristol was recently in a foster home, and her foster mom reported that she is a calm and happy puppy in the home, who loves chasing a ball!

We hope that you will consider brightening up your life with Bristol- you will not be sorry!

Bristol's adoption fee is $450. This animal is spayed and is up to date on core vaccines appropriate for their age.

She will need a Heartworm test between 6-7 months of age at the adopter's own vet.

Since she is a puppy, any adopter should anticipate needing to work on housebreaking and other training using positive reinforcement training only.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
