Meet 'Ripley': FOX 32 Chicago aids suburban shelter dogs in finding homes

DOWNERS GROVE, Ill. - Offering a helping hand to suburban shelter dogs, FOX 32 Chicago's Scott Schneider volunteers at the West Suburban Humane Society in Downers Grove two weekends a month.

During his recent stint at the shelter, Schneider spent time with Ripley, a new arrival described as a one-and-a-half-year-old Australian Kelpie mix. The breed is intelligent, affectionate with families, and compatible with other dogs.
