About The Springfield Pooch

We are sniffing out stories from the Illinois State Capital: Springfield, IL.

If our take on current events hits a little too close to home and you find yourself offended, you might want to consider crying to your mother – she’s the expert at making things all better.

Our Mission: We’re here to inform, entertain, and maybe even provoke a chuckle or two while highlighting the often absurd world of Springfield politics and culture from a conservative lens.

If you’re looking for strait-laced news, you’re in the wrong place.

This is not a news site. It’s an entertainment site. Some of the stories are completely accurate and some are total fiction. Just like the real news!

Contact Us: Got a beef with our take? Send your complaints to ‘whiner@springfieldpooch.com’. If you appreciate our unique blend of truth and humor, we love hearing that at ‘weareawesome@springfieldpooch.com’.

You can email The Pooch directly at: ‘thepooch@springfieldpooch.com’

But you should know, The Pooch doesn’t care about your opinions.
