My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Kevin is a sweet, shy, snuggly, loving and playful, two-year-old, 15-pound, male, Lhasa Apso/Poodle-mix looking for a loving guardian. Kevin was dropped off at Chicago Animal Control as a stray with a broken pelvis. He has healed in the loving care of his foster mom. He is very loving with those that he adores and he lets you pick him up and hold him like a baby. He has soft cuddly fur which makes him all the more fun to snuggle with. He also loves all other dogs (not cats), and adores playing with toys and balls. Because he had a serious injury and he’s a little on the shy side at first, he’s best in a home with respectful teenagers and adults. He loves going on walks and is good in the car. He knows how to sit on command and takes treats gently from your fingers. Kevin is non-destructive in the home, mostly housebroken and pee-pad trained. He sleeps in a crate overnight and when his foster mom is out of the house.

Kevin is healthy, up-to-date on vaccines, micro-chipped, de-wormed, heartworm-tested and on monthly preventative. He is on medication for urinary leakage following his traumatic injury and the infection that followed. He is doing beautifully on the medication, but may need to be on it for life… time will tell as he continues to recover. If you are interested in meeting and possibly adopting Kevin, please contact his foster at 773-844-6555 or paw.pads@hotmail.com or the rescue group at fido@famousfidorescue.com or 773-907-0305. His adoption fee of $200 benefits the rescued pets of Famous Fido.
