Adopt a Dog

Dog and cat adoptions are the cornerstone of our mission and services. Since 1979, we have been sheltering animals and placing them into loving homes; however, our work is still not done. There are thousands of animals in shelters waiting for homes across the Chicagoland area. We hope you will take some time to learn more about our adoption process and meet the pets currently available for adoption at the Naperville Area Humane Society.

Bear is the most amazing dog! The first night he checked the house to make sure everything was as it should be and came up to bed. I couldn’t tell him no when he crawled under my covers and laid his head on a pillow. At about 3:00 am he got up and checked on my daughter and then came back to bed. He loves to cuddle!
