Story

We love Ivy! Ivy is such a charming and friendly dog who makes instant friends with anyone she meets (sometimes needs a minute or 2 with some dogs.) Ivy loves kiddie pools and will entertain herself with toys. Even after they're gutted, she enjoys flipping them around and catching them. If the shred lands in your lap, then you're in on the game too! Ivy's foster mom says: "Boxer mix Ivy is delightful, with excellent house manners, good with small kids, good on a leash. Great with other dogs after a proper introduction. Loves watersports: pools, hoses, and squirt guns. Sweet, friendly, and affectionate with excellent house manners." Ivy is crate trained and has excellent house manners. She is fine with small children. She walks well on a leash but can be strong. Ivy is about 2 yo and weighs about 55 lbs. She is spayed, vaccinated, screened for parasites, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $390 cash and she is available for foster-to-adopt within the Chicago area.

Story

Hi! My name is Fergie. I'm just a big ole love bug! Yup! That's me! I'm a 1-1/2 year-old, Boxer Bully mix with reddish color fur, a white splotch on my face and around my neck down my chest, four white paws, a paintbrush tail with a white tip, and a pink muzzle. Even though I'm around 50 pounds, I believe I am definitely a lapdog. I'm very sweet and gentle, and I just love people! I love running around the yard, playing with my canine siblings and human kiddos, and chewing bones. But....my favorite activity is cuddling with humans on the couch! Oh, and I love napping and treats too. I do well walking on a leash, am crate trained, and am housebroken. By the way, my foster Mom says I am also a good watch dog because I bark when there is someone or something outside. I sleep well at night with no accidents and go in my crate on command during the day while my foster mom's at work. I love sleeping on the bed curled up with my canine sisters and humans. So a really cool thing is that I am learning how to ring a bell to let my foster Mom know I need to go outside. I already know sit and I'm working on the command off. Off is a little hard for me, because I get so excited when I meet someone new, but I almost have it down. I'm pretty good at coming when I'm called too, but sometimes I get distracted. Would you like to share a forever home with lots of cuddles and sloppy dog kisses? Then, I'm your girl! I hope I get to meet you soon! Because Fergie-Faye does great with other dogs of many sizes, we are seeking an adopter with another playful dog in the home. Fergie has been examined by licensed veterinarians, provided inoculations, been tested for diseases, dewormed, spayed, and microchipped; she is housebroken and crate trained. ADOPTION APPLICATIONS ARE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST from acaringplace@comcast.net. A Caring Place - All Breed Dog Rescue adopts throughout the Greater Chicagoland Area. All dogs and puppies live in foster homes, providing you as the adopter, with information on the animal's behaviors, needs, and requirements. We are always in search of fosters care providers. If you are one of those special people willing to open your heart and home to an animal in need and would like to receive information on how you can foster an animal, please contact us.

Story

Hi, I’m Mr. Lavender.🪻 Yes, like the flower. Soft, gentle, and emotionally complex. I’m what you’d call a very sensitive soul. I feel things deeply. For example, if I ever get scolded—even just a tiny “no, Lavender”—I will slowly and quietly walk to my crate to process the heartbreak. I’ll curl up, sigh dramatically, and reflect on how I have disappointed everyone I love. It’s a whole moment. But the good news is, I’m very forgiving. All it takes is a soft voice and gentle pets, and suddenly I remember that life is beautiful again. And speaking of pets… once you start petting me, you cannot stop. I will gently place myself closer. And closer. And closer. If you stop, I will politely remind you with my eyes. If that doesn’t work, I will lean my entire body into you like a weighted blanket with feelings. Physical affection is my love language, my hobby, my life. Cuddling is one of my greatest talents. I don’t just cuddle—I commit to cuddling. I will curl into you, rest my head on you, and stay there like it’s my full-time job. Personal space? Never heard of it. If you move, I move. If you sit, I sit. If you exist, I’m next to you. I also love people-watching. Give me a window, and I will sit there peacefully, observing the neighborhood like a quiet little philosopher. I don’t bark or judge—I just observe and think my gentle thoughts. Loud noises, however, are not my favorite. I prefer calm homes, soft voices, and peaceful environments where I can relax and feel safe. I’m not into chaos. I’m into comfort, love, and cozy vibes. I’m wonderful with kids and other dogs. I’m gentle, patient, and kind. I don’t want any trouble—I just want friends and a place where I belong. I have a very sweet heart, and once I trust you, I will love you with everything I have. I’m not the loudest or boldest dog. I’m the soft one. The gentle one. The one who will quietly sit beside you and make everything feel calm and warm. If you’re looking for a loyal best friend, a professional cuddler, and a sweet soul who just wants to love and be loved… I’m the one. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Story

I'm gonna make you an wo-offer you can't refuse. That's Pacino's favorite phrase. The adoption deal is simple: a roof over his head, a cold dish of water, daily meals and treats, plus an abundance of love. What? It's a good deal! Pacino, now over a year old, has become a true Dogfather. He is well-behaved, happy-go lucky, is very handsome, and has a wonderful, playful nature; he fits seamlessly into any family. His lineage boasts a long line of Dog-Father's, tough dogs out in the world whose business is their own. But, they are loyal, loving and strong characters to have around you.. He's a potty-trained and crate-trained gentleman, but he still has a penchant for chewing. He adores treats and toys, but can go through them quickly. Proper and slow introductions to other dogs are essential. Pacino would thrive best with older kids. Join the legacy and give Pacino the family he deserves. After all, a dog like him is an offer you can't refuse. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

Story

Meet Dorothea “Thea” Dorothea, affectionately called Thea, is a 4-year-old pittie with the most perfect radar ears and a soft pink, boopable nose that perfectly matches her gentle spirit. Her journey hasn’t been easy, but it’s shaped her into one of the most quietly special dogs you’ll ever meet. Thea came into Animal Control as part of the “Eras Crew,” a group of 13 dogs rescued from a heartbreaking situation. She was just 6 months old, underweight, terrified, and unfamiliar with kindness. Fast forward to today, and Thea has blossomed in foster care into a sweet, silly, and deeply loving companion… on her own timeline. And that timeline is important. Thea is the kind of dog who doesn’t rush trust—she builds it. She needs a patient, experienced adopter who understands that it may take **several months (up to 9)** for her to fully relax and show her true self. But once she does? You’ll get to experience the magic that is Thea: her goofy zoomies, her soft snuggles, and her hilarious little personality quirks that make every day brighter. One thing that helps Thea feel safe and confident is other dogs, she absolutely *thrives* with them. Because of this, **Thea must go to a home with at least one other friendly dog**. She looks to her canine companions for reassurance, playtime, and comfort, and they help her navigate the world with growing confidence. She’s: * Wonderful with other dogs (her happy place!) * Neutral with cats * A perfect angel in her crate * A chill girl who enjoys both playtime and cozy snuggles Because Thea is still learning that the world is a safe place, she can be fearful of new people and environments. A calm, predictable home will help her continue to grow. She may do okay with respectful children who understand her need for space and patience. Thea isn’t an “instant dog”. She’s a **slow-burn best friend**. She’s for someone who finds joy in small wins, who understands that trust is earned, and who will celebrate every brave step she takes. If you’re willing to give her the time and love she deserves, Thea will give you something truly special in return: a bond built on trust, resilience, and unconditional love. *She’s been waiting a long time. Maybe she’s been waiting for you.* Dorothea's adoption fee is waived. If you have specific questions before applying, please feel free to email taylor@playersforpits.com If you are interested in adopting please go directly to www.playersforpits.com to apply.

Story

If you don't see a dog currently with Players for Pits that interests you, please consider fostering. There are over 300 amazing dogs at Chicago Animal Care and Control (the shelter most our adoptable dogs come from) and we can match you with a good fit. The rescue covers the cost of all vetting and supplies needed for fostering and we will connect you with a support system of team members/volunteers from our rescue so you are not alone in the process. Fostering saves lives! When you decide to foster, you are temporarily opening your home up to a dog in need who may otherwise have been euthanized. We have many teirs of fosters. The first is "revolving fosters" meaning they take on one or two dogs at a time and when that dog or dog(s) get adopted, they get ready for a new foster to keep to cycle of saving lives going! Another large part of our rescue is Vacation Fosters who do short term fostering. To foster for us, we currently require you be within an hour of Roselle, Illinois where our main vet is located. But if you live out of state or too far, there will be a rescue local to you that could use your help! To register to foster with us, please start by doing a "Foster Sign Up" linked below. This will give us a brief summary of who you are without wasting your time in case you are too far or may be a better fit for another rescue. To sign up, visit https://www.playersforpits.com/foster or contact info@playersforpits.com for more information.
