When you're adopting from a small town, casting a wider net early saves time and frustration. Call Regap of Illinois first and ask to be added to their waitlist, then look toward Earlville just nine miles away or Princeton about twenty minutes out — both have multiple organizations. Confirm a beagle or hound-mix is actually there before you drive. A little willingness to travel in rural Illinois usually pays off, and the dog you find in one of these smaller shelters will be all the more grateful for a real home instead of a kennel.
