Waylon

About Me

Birthdate: 5 years old

PLEASE NOTE: Waylon is not currently in our shelter building! If you’re interested in meeting him, please call us at 309-787-6830 and leave a message so we can schedule an appointment.

Meet Waylon! This 5-year-old Hound/Pit Bull mix is one big sweetheart with an even bigger heart! Waylon is such a sweet boy, and underneath that big-dog exterior is just a big baby who deserves to be loved.

According to the shelter he came from, Waylon has been living in a shelter environment for almost a YEAR now. That’s a long time to wait for a family, and we would love nothing more than to see this boy finally get his chance at a home of his own.

Waylon is heartworm positive, which means he has been infected with heartworms that can affect his heart and lungs. The good news is that we already have a treatment plan in place and will go over all the details with potential adopters. He’ll need some extra care and follow-up, but he doesn't have to face this alone!

This big, lovable boy has spent far too long waiting for his next chapter to begin. He deserves a soft place to land, people to love, and a family who will show him what life outside of a shelter is all about. Could you be the one he’s been waiting for?

Can't adopt? Please share! Let's help Waylon find the loving home he's been waiting for!
