My story

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

Plinko is at our Bucktown Adoption Center (2144 N. Wood St.) You can visit our Adoption Center anytime during open hours, no appointment needed.

Plinko is
Neutered: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Yes!
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized


Housebroken: Yes!
Crate trained: So far, so good!
Leash walking: Plinko can be excitable and pull on leash but is working on it with positive reinforcement
Dog social: Yes! Plinko has been participating in playgroups at our Adoption Center.
Cat social: Yes! He lived with a cat in his foster home and did great!
Kid friendly: Unknown, but this happy pup would likely do great with gentle kids


Plinko likes:
- Toys!
- Playtime with dog pals
- Snuggles

Plinko is a pint-sized sweetheart, full of love and playful exuberance. He is the perfect size, big enough to handle a long run and small enough to lay on you without squishing you! He wants nothing more than to be near his people, and once he finds his warm spot he will fall asleep in record time. He has been wonderful with the feline companions in his foster home and would be overjoyed to find himself a home where a cat currently resides. Plinko is truly the whole package!


Plinko's adoption fee is $300, and this lovely pup is so excited to join a family!

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!
