Aphrodite knows that 2020 is her year to beat Heartworm disease. She’s stressed at the shelter, it is very loud but she continues to fight while awaiting a foster or forever home. Aphrodite is a 9 year old Boxer mix who keeps her kennel clean and loves to cuddle on the couch. She does prefer to be the only dog in the house. Help us make her New Year’s Resolution come true and stop up to meet her for foster or adoption! Hours are Sundays 12-2p and Wednesdays 5-7p.
Do you have a foster home for Aphrodite? If you do, fill out an adoption application online at www.illinoisvalleyanimalrescue.net. Please share Aphrodite and help her find a home!
