Bacon - Pit Bull Terrier and Husky Dog for Adoption in Benld, Illinois

Hi, my name is Bacon. I am a Pit Mix that was born in June 2026. I am part of a litter of 6 that was found abandoned in a box at a local park. While the start of my story starts out sad, I'm looking to start my next chapter with a loving family to call my own. With a proper introduction, I could live with other dogs, cats, or children. I will need a family that will be ready for all my puppy energy, teach me basic commands, and socialize me so I can grow into a well rounded adult dog. A fenced yard would be great but not required. I am spayed, vaccinated according to age requirements, de-wormed, on heartworm/flea preventions and microchipped.

Note: To adopt, you must live within approximately 100 miles of one of our adoption sites (Benld or Springfield IL), and be at least 18 years of age.
