Story
I am 52lbs and I am looking for my forever home. Adoption Donation: $75 Meet Ella – your future best friend! Ella is a beautiful, smart girl who may be shy when first meeting new people, but once she warms up, her sweet, playful, and loyal personality shines through. She adores her people deeply and forms strong bonds, making her a truly devoted companion.  Because she loves her humans so much, Ella can be protective of them. She’ll thrive in a calm, adult-only home where she can be the center of attention and the only dog. Once she feels safe, Ella’s affectionate nature and playful spirit will brighten every day.  Looking to open your heart and home? Ella is also available for general fostering while she waits for her forever family.  All dogs are microchipped, neutered, current on all vaccines, heartworm tested (if age appropriate), and up-to-date on preventatives at the time of adoption.

Born: December 04, 2023 I'm 50lbs and I am looking for my forever home. Adoption Donation: $450 Bianco is a high-energy boy who loves to run, explore, and take on new adventures. He gets along well with other dogs and enjoys active playtime. Highly food-motivated, he’s eager to learn and always ready for a tasty treat. Bianco would thrive in a home that can match his energy and give him plenty of opportunities to stay active. He’s not a fan of cats, so a feline-free home would be best.

Story
Wynter (DOB 12/7/24) is just as beautiful and gentle as her name suggests — sweet, playful, and friendly with everyone she meets. She’s the kind of pup who’s always up for a game of fetch in the yard or a cozy snuggle on the couch. 💙 She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and would love a playful canine companion to share her adventures with! Because Wynter can be a little sensitive to noise and commotion, she’s looking for a calmer home with kids 12+ and a secure fenced yard where she can run, explore, and feel safe while being her playful self. Wynter isn’t just another rescue dog — she’s truly something special. With her gentle spirit and big heart, she’s patiently waiting for the family who will love her forever. 🐾 ✨ If you’re searching for a loyal, kind, and fun-loving best friend… Wynter might be your perfect match. 💙 Could Wynter be the missing piece of your family? Fill out an application on our website https://www.tailsoftheforgottenpaws.org/ Wynter was born at our rescue and has only known a life where she is safe, cared for, and loved. However, this girl has never known the comforts of a home! We would love to see Wynter find a foster home, to help her transition into her happily ever after! (And if that foster turns into forever we’d love that for her too!). If you’ve ever thought about fostering, please reach out to our rescue! Wynter has committed to bring endless cuddles, and laughter, can you provide the love? We’ll take care of the rest!

Barney

Border Collie

Male, 3 yrs 9 mos
Algonquin, IL
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Barney is a 3yr old border collie mix, he came to us on October 18th from a shelter in KY. He spent the last 8 months in the shelter and supposedly hasn't seen sun or grass in those 8 months. When he arrived there he was feral and no one could touch him because he was so shut down and scared. After gaining trust with one of the volunteers, he slowly came around and has blossomed into an incredible boy. He is a very friendly and loving dog. He loves going on walks and exploring. He is a little cautious when approaching new surroundings. He will slowly investigate and determine a course of action. He is the same when meeting new people. He loves to play with tugs and acts as if he is still a puppy. Barney needs work with basic commands but knows "no" and "leave it". He doesn't know "heal", but he is a dream on a leash, and doesn't pull or lunge. He loves to play with people or other dogs. He has been on walks and encountered deer, cats, dogs and has had no reactions. Saw a squirrel and did want to chase it, but did not pull. He would be a perfect companion for a house with or without dogs as long as there was plenty of time for him to be with people. Barney is up to date on vaccines, microchipped and neutered. He is currently being treated for hookworms, lyme and ehrlichia. Get your application in on this guy ASAP as you will not want to miss out on such a sweet boy! Please visit Barney and his friends on our website. https://www.midwestbordercollierescue.org/alldogs

Story
Buddy is a very very sweet and shy boy. He is settling in extremely well in his foster home on a small horse farm. He especially likes Daisy, a recently adopted MWBCR dog. He is also getting along extremely well with with the foster family's two other dogs, Rambo (German Shepherd) and Jana (BC). When family members visited recently for two full days/nights his family found that Buddy LOVES kids!!! This was HUGE for him to undergo such a big change, travel, large family and KIDS in just a few days. Buddy spent all day with the family on the farm on Monday and Tuesday and was outside both days at the barn while his family rode horses. donkeys and visited the ducks several times. He absolutely loved it and stood right by side on the long lunge leash. He is AMAZING on the leash and is already trained to sleep in the crate at night. This boy is really something and he is going to be a GREAT dog, once he completely comes out of his shell. ​ His family plans to gently expose Buddy to as many things as possible to help him adapt to almost any family! ​ Buddy is vaccinated, HW negative and is scheduled to be neutered. ​​​​​​Please visit Buddy and his friends on our web page https://www.midwestbordercollierescue.org/alldogs ​Location: Chicago Area ​ Contact: deedee2210107@gmail.com

Basic Information Other Female 2 years old 40 lbs. Brown eyes Black-White-White fur coat Important Notes About Morticia Possibly good with dogs and cats Good with kids over 10 years old High energy level Special Training If adopted, Morticia will come with a six session training package to successfully transition to home life. More Info Hello, my name is Morticia, and I am a young mixed breed looking for a new best friend! I am believed to be part cattle dog because of my medium size and exuberant personality. I was surrendered because I tried to herd people at my previous home, so I need someone who can give me an outlet for my energy. I am eager to please and happy to work—just give me something to do! While I have some issues getting along with children and small animals, I get along really well with other dogs. I thrive in an environment where I can engage in activities that challenge my mind and body, whether it's learning new tricks, playing fetch, or going on long walks. I have a strong desire to bond with my human companions and show my love through enthusiastic kisses. I may want you all to myself, but with some guidance, I can learn how to share my affection. If you’re looking for a devoted and energetic companion who will fill your days with joy, we’re a match made in heaven!
