This handsome bunny has been on quite the journey! Initially, he arrived with a ""spicy"" reputation, a true testament to his fierce little personality and his strong desire to protect his space.
Since being neutered and given the time and patience to understand he is safe and learn what love is, he has made incredible progress. He has relaxed, mellowed significantly, and is ready to share his sweet side with a dedicated adopter. While he still retains a dash of that protective ""spicy"" attitude (a reminder of his complex past!), he now balances it with a tremendous amount of love and affection for those he trusts.
He is a bun of many talents, including acrobatics. He loves to parkour off the side of walls while getting the zoomies and LOVES to jump! If you're sitting down, don't be surprised if he uses you as a landing pad—he's been known to hop right up onto a shoulder just to hang out and survey his domain. He also loves his treats. If you shake the treat bag he will start running circles around you in anticipation.
Once you've earned his trust, he completely melts. He will climb right into your lap for cuddles, flop over, and lay with you, showing just how sweet and comfortable he can be. When he hears you coming to hang out with him, he will even get excited and start running with anticipation.
He is looking for a patient, loving adopter who appreciates the effort and progress he's made. His ideal home is one that understands that a reactive moment can still happen but is committed to continuing the positive reinforcement that has helped him thrive.
He's proof that a little patience can go a long way, and the bond you form with him will be all the more rewarding for it. Are you ready to welcome this unique, adorable, and energetic sweetheart into your forever home?

Our Adoption Center is open every Wednesday – Sunday in Bucktown at 2144 N Wood Street, but we are reachable by email 7 days/week!
Our Adoption Center has adoptable dogs. Adoptable cats and bunnies live in foster homes. We work on a first come basis. We are limiting the amount of visitors on site, so you may be asked to be added to the waitlist when you arrive. We require all family members of the household (including any resident dogs with current vaccination records) to be present at the introduction. We recommend being prepared to adopt same-day as the dogs at our Adoption Center are available for direct adoption and we do not “hold” them for specific applicants.
You can view which dogs are currently at our Adoption Center by selecting “adoption center” in the attributes tab on our Available Pets page.
ADOPTION APPOINTMENTS: For dogs, cats, and bunnies living in foster care our Adoption Team will set up adoption appointments with potential adopters after an application is submitted. We do not have cats, bunnies, or guinea pigs living at our Adoption Center (only dogs!)

More about this shelter
One Tail at a Time (OTAT) started as a backup plan for dogs that were not getting adopted or rescued by other groups in the area shelters. Over the years we have experienced consistent and steady growth: we are among the top transfer partners for dogs at Chicago Animal Care and Control (CACC) and for cats at several open intake shelters in Indiana, we have a robust transport program in which dogs are rescued from high-kill shelters in southern states, and we are even able to pull dogs from a rescue partner in Tulum, Mexico to help them get adopted in the Chicagoland area. Our growth has been, and continues to be, due to the overwhelming support received from our community.
Members enable us to take on complex medical cases and continue to grow our annual intake numbers. Volunteers have continued to line up to foster and care for dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs, to take on leadership roles, and to help build One Tail at a Time into a well-known and respected rescue organization in Chicago and beyond.
Due to our continuous growth and immensely supportive community of members, volunteers, fosters, adopters, and more, we have evolved into the One Tail at a Time Cooperative!
