Story
Chloe Renee is a graceful Chihuahua mix with a big personality wrapped in a petite frame. A Kentucky native, she carries herself with poise but isn’t afraid to let her voice be heard—she is, after all, a frequent commentator on life’s little happenings. Because of her chatty nature, apartment living may not be the best fit, but a home that appreciates her spirited announcements will find her endlessly endearing.She has a particular fondness for dogs her own size or smaller and does best with slow introductions. Chloe seems to love any human that will pay attention to her. Children coming in for a scratch on the head is especially wonderful.One of Chloe’s greatest joys in life is following her nose—sniffing is life for her. Pair that with her deep love of toys, and you’ll discover her true specialties: expert squeaker removal and professional toy shredding. She also delights in cozying up under blankets, enjoying mealtime with a tasty food topper, and riding in the car (booster seat required, please).Beneath her sassy sparkle lies a resilient soul who has already overcome so much. With patience, she blossoms into a confident, loving companion—one who will happily fill your home with affection, character, and the joyful soundtrack of a Chihuahua living her best life.Chloe Renee: part toy connoisseur, part adventurer, and wholly unforgettable.Interested in adopting this dog?

Sonja was adopted 4 years ago in December from heartland animal shelter. My vet thought at time she was three years old so I’m guessing now she’s 6 or 7. Someone to love and care for her. She is trained to use the Peepee pads. She loves to sit on your lap under a blanket, loves kisses enjoys a fenced in yard. She sleeps in my bedroom in her bed. She’s tiny snuggly independent low maintenance. She eats a quarter cup of dry food twice a day and loves her treats!

Story
Say Hello to Gilligan! Gilligan is an energetic, sweet, happy-go-lucky pup learning the joys of being a dog. He came to us as a relinquishment simply because puppy life was more work than expected. Like all puppies, he’s a work in progress—but also incredibly rewarding for the right family. Gilligan is crate trained and still working on potty training. He’s doing very well with listening and learning through training and gains more confidence each day with both people and other dogs. He’s great with other dogs and would enjoy having a canine friend, though it’s not required as long as he has a family committed to playing with him and giving him plenty of exercise. This affectionate boy absolutely adores his person and will happily follow them from room to room. He loves playing ball, fetch, and engaging with toys of all kinds, and he enjoys going for walks. Gilligan can be a bit nervous around loud sounds, so a patient, understanding home that can help build his confidence will be important. Gilligan would do best with an active family who understands that puppies take time, consistency, and effort—but that the payoff is huge. With continued training, exercise, and love, Gilligan will grow into a loyal, fun-loving companion. If you’re ready for the joys (and adventures!) of puppyhood, Gilligan could be a wonderful foster match Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 12-4 pm at 372 Townline Road in Mundelein, IL 60060 to meet our adoptable animals in person.

Story
Meet Fresno, a spunky little guy with a soft side waiting to shine! Fresno is about 3 years old and full of personality. He is crate trained and currently working on potty training (cold weather is definitely not his favorite!). Fresno is a sensitive soul who can be anxious and nervous in new situations and is slow to warm up, which may sometimes come across as being a bit nippy when he’s unsure. Because of this, Fresno will need a child-free home with someone who has prior dog experience and understands how to work patiently with dogs who need time, structure, and reassurance. With consistency, gentle guidance, and continued confidence-building, Fresno has great potential to grow into a more secure and trusting companion. Once Fresno feels safe and bonded, his sweet side comes out—he enjoys relaxing and napping with his people and truly values quiet companionship. He would do best in a calm, predictable home where his boundaries are respected and his progress is celebrated. If you’re an experienced, patient adopter looking for a dog who will form a deep bond and reward your efforts with trust and affection, Fresno could be the perfect fit. Fill out an adoption application to schedule your own private meet and greet with this furry friend.
