Alsip Animal Rescue
To top off some of the great outdoor landscaping and comprehensive garden center, Alsip is home to the much talked about Animal Rescue Center. They care for and allow adoption of dogs, cats, birds, and many other animals that have been rescued. I, personally, got my bobtail kitten from there just about 5 months ago and could not be any happier with the service I received. They have a separate Animal Clinic within the building that takes care of shots and treatment for me as well, as it is their recommended choice to go to. So, while you are upgrading your yard, you may find yourself running around doing errands with a new puppy by your side.
