Rallo here, wanted to thank everyone at Serra Subaru Champaign for their month long contributions to and with CCHS! Their continued support helps pets like Rallo find their forever homes sooner! A grand total of 106 animals have been adopted just this month alone, and we could not have done it without their support!

Rallo is a 10 month old Dogo Argentino who is available for adoption at CCHS. Rallo is a super sweet lovebug that loves all sorts of affection! He is 78lbs and this big guy does not know just how big he is! He loves to play and with his size and young age, he can be a little much. No worries though, Rallo is a quick study and loves to learn tricks for treats and he is so eagar to please! He did great in his previous home with the other dog and has done great with children! If Rallo has caught your attention, stop in and meet with Rallo!

What are we cooking up? 👀 A new way to treat our pets! We are grateful to have received a 2025 Dog Enrichment Grant from .com . Dogs have been staying at the shelter longer than in recent years, and we are looking for new ways to keep pets calm and stimulated while they wait for their forever families. With the help of Petfinder's grant program, we can now offer the soothing, and delicious, enrichment option of frozen dog licks!

As an independent nonprofit, every gift and grant keeps our doors open to pets in need. We are grateful to Petfinder's Enrichment Grant for furthering our mission! We also want to thank Souper Cubes , for helping us maximize this generous grant.

We look forward to updating you all about how our pets like their new treats!

Fellow animal welfare nonprofits: you can also review and apply for a variety of grants from Petfinder to support your mission https://petfinderfoundation.org/our-programs/grant-types/. Good luck!

Learn more about the benefits of frozen licks, and recipes for your dogs at home, from our friends at ASPCA: https://www.aspca.org/pet-care/dog-care/enrichment-recipes

Discover the many shades of Miss Pink! She can be baby pink when cuddling, or a hot bold pink when she's ready for adventure, and you'll love her either way. 💕 Miss Pink is currently the dog who has waited longest for her family, but thanks to friends like Colorfil (themselves pink icons), she's getting the care she needs. Not only does Colorfil generously give to our mission, they create the opportunity or so many others to give! Opportunities such as presenting our upcoming dinner and auction!

Every ticket, raffle entry, auction win, and generous gift at the Fur Ball is transformed into life-saving care for pets like Miss Pink. We couldn't do it without you!

Please celebrate a year of helping animals when you join us on Friday, November 7, as Colorfil presents our annual Fur Ball!

Tickets are available now, for both attendees in the ballroom, and At-Home Bidders who can try their luck or shop the auction from home. https://secure.qgiv.com/event/cchsfurball/
