My story

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

Meet Cedar and Birch! These girls came to us alongside their momma Magnolia and brother Ash after being dumped at a construction site. Our best guess is Magnolia was left there and gave birth alone in a place where no dog should have to.
They came into our rescue so that Megan could ensure that the litter was safe and sound. At this time, they are 9 weeks old and looking for their individual forever homes!
Things to note about these puppies, or puppies in general:
- They are not potty trained at this time. They have worked on pee pad training as they don’t have all their vaccines due to age so adopters will be expected to be patient and consistent.
- There first few days could be a little rough because currently they are still being fostered together and it’ll be a big adjustment! They are however, showing signs that they are ready to be apart and find their own play friends and people.
- As mentioned they only have their age appropriate vaccinations so leash training will also be new.
- They have met dogs of all different sizes and have done so well. They are confident, playful and though they don’t need another dog in their household we want to ensure that their forever homes continue to socialize them so they continue to stay this way!
Cedar and Birch are currently being fostered in Chicago and accepting applications in or within 3 hours of Chicago. There adoption fees include their age appropriate vaccines, spay, multiple rounds of dewormer, first round of prevention (flea, tick, and heartworm) and their microchips. If you’re interested in learning more about them please apply directly!

Additional adoption info

Every dog is different: personality, temperament, energy, comfort with kids and other animals, medical needs and more. We take all these factors into consideration when making a forever-home match. We are careful about the placements we make. We do our best to match the right dog with the right adoptive home because we want this to be the pet’s permanent home. These steps ensure that we have all the information needed to make the best placement for you or your family.

More about this rescue

At Chicago Rescue Authority, our mission is to create a compassionate world where every animal is treated with love, respect, and dignity. We are dedicated to educating the public about the adverse realities of the mass-production industry for puppies, raising awareness about responsible pet adoption and ownership, and actively working towards reducing the overpopulation of dogs in shelters.

Our promise to Chicago is to build our rescue on the tenets of teamwork, education and compassion. We will listen to the concerns and ideas of those around us and be ready to grow alongside this rescue and this mission.

Volunteers, fosters, donors and adopters will be the backbone of this organization, just like every other animal welfare non-profit. We will be hosting a variety of fundraisers and mixers throughout the year aimed at building our support network. We can’t wait to meet all the animals whose lives we are going to change!
