Fennec has been in boarding for three months and she so ready for a home of her own. She's not high maintenance, she's snuggly, she adores being a weekend warrior, and she has obedience skills.
She was adopted, lived in that home for two years, and was returned to us when the family had their second child. She lived with a male dog and a toddler in that home.
She's super affectionate and adores her person. She is good/tolerant with male dogs, she is not a fan of females. Her draw back is that she is not cat or small dog safe. She will flip into prey mode, which is not fair to either animal.
She is crate trained, she is house broken, she is fine loose when away, she's a really nice adult dog for someone who doesn't want to deal with a puppy or young dog.
Meet Dani, a loving and resilient pup looking for a forever home. Found emaciated on the streets of Chicago. Dani has been thriving in foster care and has shown just how sweet, loyal, and affectionate she can be. Whether it's cuddling on the couch, going for walks, doing nosework or simply being close to people, Dani loves companionship and is ready to become part of a family.
Dani is energetic but has a nice off switch and gets along well with dogs, cats, and children. She enjoys long walks, nosework, and would do well in agility. She is making great progress with obedience and house training.
Like many rescue dogs, Dani just needs a patient and caring home where she can continue to feel safe and loved. In return, you'll gain a devoted companion who will bring joy, comfort, and unconditional love every day.
If you're looking to open your heart and home to a deserving dog, Dani may be the perfect fit.
Aria is now available for adoption!
She has come a long way since coming into rescue. She is enjoying life, is housebroken, crate trained and has learned basic commands. From near starvation, under medical supervision she's slowly gained weight, and could still gain a little more.
Aria is a sweet and loving Malinois. She is active and enjoys a good run. She is good with other dogs; she currently lives with 4 other male dogs (both large and small). She has a nice off switch (relaxing mode) and likes playing with toys but needs to be supervised (sometimes she likes to chew them). Aria has been around children on occasion and has done well.
If you are interested in adopting Aria, please fill out our application!
Very friendly, did well with other dogs and had no issues with handling. Knows sit.
Very treat motivated. Prefers food over a ball.
Kira is a high-energy young girl! She is very food-motivated. With adequate exercise, she settles down and loves to cuddle.
Thor is an approximately 18-month-old Belgian Malinois mix looking for his forever home. He is an incredibly sweet boy with a fun, energetic personality and lots of love to give.
Like most Belgians, Thor has plenty of energy and would thrive with an active family or someone who enjoys walks, hikes, training, or outdoor adventures. He is eager to please and enjoys being around people.
Thor has shown no signs of aggression and is is a sweet, affectionate, energetic young dog who loves people and has a fun personality.
Thor was unfortunately left behind by a young owner who moved and didn't want the responsibility anymore (and whose family has dumped dogs in the past). He is now being kept safe by people trying to help him get the second chance he deserves. All veterinary care, neutering, food, and transport assistance will be covered. There is a small adoption fee to be discussed to keep him safe
We are simply trying to find the RIGHT placement for a really good dog who got unlucky in life.
If you're looking for a loyal best friend with a big heart, Thor may be the perfect fit!

Wow, Maisie is stunning! She's estimated to be about 3 years old and weighs 48 pounds.
Meet Maisie, a gorgeous girl with a soft, gentle personality who's hoping to find her forever companion. She's affectionate, eager to please, and incredibly smart -- her herding and working‑breed traits shine through in the best ways. Maisie is attentive, responsive, and has an impressive natural focus. She already knows some basic commands and has a lovely, gentle mouth when playing fetch with her favorite tennis ball. She's also a pro at "drop," showing off her great manners.
Maisie will thrive with an adopter who can give her the mental stimulation and regular exercise she needs to stay happy and balanced. She can be a little submissive, and quick movements may make her hesitate, so continued confidence‑building will help her blossom even more. With her sweet spirit and loyal nature, she'll be an incredible companion for someone experienced with working breeds.
Maisie can't wait to meet her forever family. She will need a home where any children are at least 13 years old.

They call me Willa and tell me that I'm a special girl who deserves the world, but my troubled past makes me doubt that's true. I was on my own for at least 2.5 weeks before getting trapped and brought to the shelter; it's hard to go through something like that and not have trust issues.
Getting to the adoption floor has been a long time coming and I'm thankful for the staff who got me here but I'm ready for bigger and better things with someone who's love is true and won't give up when the going gets tough. I love wide open spaces, water, fetch, jolly balls and the wind in my fur. Once I know and trust you, you'll see the side of me that gets lost in the stress of the shelter and the uncertainty of a constantly changing environment. I don't love other dogs and I don't give my heart away easily but I promise I'm worth the time and the energy. (Oh and breed experience is a big plus in my book!)
