Patches is a sweet and friendly boy who's always excited to make new friends! With his cheerful personality and endless enthusiasm, he's the kind of dog who'll greet everyone with a wagging tail and a big smile. Whether it's meeting new people or discovering new toys, Patches is always ready to bring joy and love into every moment. Patches is a playful pup with boundless energy! He loves to run, jump, and chase after anything that moves. But don't let his excitement fool you-he's also a gentle and affectionate companion, always ready for cuddles after a fun play session. Friendly, playful, and full of energy, Patches is the perfect furry friend who makes every day a little brighter! When Patches arrived at Anderson Animal Shelter from their partner shelter in Oklahoma, he tested positive for Heartworm. The team at Anderson believes the best place for Heartworm-positive dogs like Patches to undergo treatment and recovery is with a loving forever family. If you choose to adopt Patches, the clinic staff will support you every step of the way—answering questions and helping you through the process. Treatment typically spans about three months and includes simple at-home care to keep him safe while he heals, followed by a final test six months after treatment begins. The good news is that Heartworm treatment is highly successful, and the staff anticipates Patches will make a full recovery! It's also important to know that Heartworm can only be transmitted by mosquitoes, not directly from pet to pet. Stop in and meet Patches 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. Our dogs and puppies go home spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested (7 months and over), and up to date on core vaccines, heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives. Their adoption also includes a free-vet exam at one of our participating veterinarians.
If you have any questions or would like to adopt Patches, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
