About West

Meet West, a lovable and gentle 10-year-old Poodle who weighs about 12 pounds. He may be a bit shy at first, but he quickly warms up, revealing his sweet and social nature. West gets along well with other dogs, though he’ll need some guidance on leash training. Having had 9 teeth pulled hasn’t dampened his appetite one bit. While we don't know how he’ll interact with kids or cats, supervision is recommended during introductions. With an adoption fee of $350, you can give this charming little guy the warmth and love he truly deserves. All pets receive age-appropriate vaccinations, are spayed/neutered, and microchipped before adoption. To meet West and his friends, visit the Protecting Animal Welfare Society on Fridays or Saturdays from 10 AM to 4 PM. Call 217-243-7297 to learn more. This could be the start of a beautiful friendship!
