Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Reno is a sweet yorkie looking for an experienced patient family that speaks 'dog'. Reno is a breeder release from a commercial facility. He hasn't had the benefit a dog his age might have who was born and living in a home. That being said, while he is scared and timid, once he feels safe he is longing to bond with a family. After he has been with us a while he has come around and really wants to Velcro to a person of his own. . He needs family who will help him slowly decompress and adjust in his own time.
Reno is a friendly gentle fella. He needs help on learning to potty outside with a scheduled routine. He has been partly getting the hang of pee pads. He needs a fenced in yard for his potty place. He's scared to go outside and doesn't understand leash walking.
He can go into a home with another dog, but he isn't really interested in other dogs, he wants to cling to people instead. He will now jump on his person' calf to get their attention and get some love.. He wants to be close. Once he settles in she will follow you room to room to be close .
Like all dogs, he will need structure and a patient, loving home. We recommend training for all dogs, not only to give Reno important learning skills, but because you and your dog will create a stronger bond just by going through the training together.
Reno is 1 year 9 months old and fully vetted. He has been neutered, heartworm negative, had a dental, received age-appropriate vaccines, and is microchipped. Subsequent vaccines will be at the expense of his adopter. His adoption fee is $1200..00. He is on the hunt for his own completely committed family. Little dogs can live to be 20+ years old, so Reno wants to be sure his family is all in for better or for worse!
IF INTERESTED IN A PUPPY (UNDER 12 MONTHS): You must have a flexible work schedule or someone home all day. Puppies need to be let out to potty often. They need socialization, bonding, and training (housetraining and behavioral training). If you work long hours, have a busy social schedule, or are not financially secure, then a puppy is not for you.
We adopt only in the local Chicago metro area. We require home visits. If you would like to apply to be considered as an adoption candidate for Reno, please fill out an application for his adoption on our website at: https://www.rescuetailsanimalwelfare.org/info/adoption. The first step in the process is to complete an application.
We are all volunteers with full-time jobs. We try to get back to all applicants within 72 hours. We are an in home foster volunteer group. We are not a brick and mortar, There is no building to come and view dogs.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us at: RescueTailsAnimalWelfare@gmail.com.

To adopt any animal from Rescue Tails we require a completed and verified adoption application. Once we can review the application, we can set up a meet and greet. We ask that all members of the household including pets are available for us and prospective pet to meet. Providing that goes well, we will set an appointment with you for a home visit. If all goes well we can proceed to the final step of finalizing the adoption.

Rescue Tails Animal Welfare is dedicated to rehoming pets from high kill shelters. We choose an animal one at a time and evaluate what issues caused the animal to end up in the shelter and address those issues. Most often we find behavioral issues and/or medical issues . We deal with whatever it is to the best of our ability and then place the pet up for adoption to a responsible pet guardian. It is our goal to prevent the pet from returning to the system again. We work with the pets and carefully match them to their forever homes.
