Petey is a sweet, gentle little hound mix (about 8–12 lbs) with a heart that’s even bigger than his puppy-dog eyes. He was born in rescue on 11/27/2025 He may be a little shy at first, but once he knows you’re his person, he’s all in—kisses, cuddles, and happy whines included.
Petey’s favorite thing in the world is simply being with people. When he sees his humans, he gets so excited he starts to whine with joy. He loves belly rubs (extra bonus points if you find that special scratch spot!) and is always up for snuggling nearby.
He gets along great with both cats and dogs and has wonderful manners for such a little guy. At night, Petey sleeps quietly in his puppy pen, making him an easy addition to your home. During the day, you’ll often find him happily entertaining himself with squeaky toys or chewing on his favorite bones.
If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate companion who just wants love and closeness, Petey might be your perfect match
*please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.
