My story

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

Are You Ready to Give a Smart Pup the Fresh Start He Desperately Needs?

Hi, I'm Bruno! I'm an 8-month-old pup with a lot of heart and even more potential. I'll be honest with you—I'm still catching up on some puppy basics because my early months were pretty limited. I came to the shelter as a stray from Chicago Animal Control, and I think I spent my first few months in a small space without much experience with the big, exciting world around me.

But Here's the Good News:
I am incredibly smart and SO eager to learn! I already know "sit" and "touch," and when I figure out what you're asking me to do, you can see the pride and joy light up in me. Making you happy makes me happy—it's truly my favorite thing.

What I'm Looking For:
I need a patient, committed person who understands that I'm still developing:

Training-focused: I thrive with structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement
Home often: Daily training sessions will help me blossom
Patient and understanding: Some things other pups my age know, I'm still learning
Experienced or determined: You'll need dedication to help me reach my full potential
Playful and encouraging: Help me discover how fun life can be!

What You'll Get:
A young, smart, motivated dog who genuinely wants to please you. I'm at that perfect age where I can still learn and grow into an incredible companion. With the right guidance, I'll become the confident, happy dog I'm meant to be.
My Promise:
I'll work hard every single day. I'll celebrate every milestone with you. And I'll show you that investing in a dog like me is one of the most rewarding things you'll ever do.
Are you ready to be my champion? Because I'm ready to show you what I can become.
—Bruno

Additional adoption info

See our process and policies on our website.
https://carenorthshore.org/adoption-information/

Our fees include a full medical exam by a veterinarian. This includes a Feline Leukemia and FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus) test for cats, Rabies and Distemper Vaccines, deworming and Spay/Neuter. Dogs receive a Heartworm Check, Spay/Neuter, Rabies and Distemper Vaccines, Canine Flu Vaccine, deworming, and Kennel Cough preventative. Our modest adoption fees do not cover the procedures and vet work that we provide the animals. We fundraise to make up the difference. Any ongoing medical needs that C.A.R.E. is aware of are explained fully, (including daily medicine costs), to the potential adopter, and become the responsibility of the adopter.
