Springfield, IL (CAPITOL CITY NOW) – The kennels at Sangamon County Animal Control and Adoption Center are still completely full and the dogs are in need of your help. If you’re able to adopt or foster a dog please come visit them ASAP. Shelter hours are Monday-Friday 10:30-4:15 and Saturday 9:00-1:00. Every adoption or foster opens up a kennel for new dogs that arrive daily.

Our Friends of Sangamon County Animal Control Dog of the Week is Baron, a four year old American Bulldog who came in as a stray two months ago. Baron is a big, strong boy. He does okay on a leash, but our volunteer says he’s hard to move when he doesn’t want to move. He’s a friendly boy who will be a good companion for someone who has experience with big dogs.

Baron is available for foster and adoption. He’s waiting to start fun in the sun with a new loving family.
