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
Meet Chopper, born Feb 8, 2025. When we brought Mom-Dog Helena up from an overcrowded shelter in Kentucky back in December 2024, little did we know she’d be delivering puppies a couple months later. Her six puppies, born Feb 8 2025, one boy and five girls, are absolutely adorable. Helena is likely a Chihuahua Mix and of course we have no idea of the breed of the father-dog. We expect the puppies are Terrier – Chihuahua Mixes Chopper is the only boy in the mix, and he’s the most precious pup ever! Chopper is a bit thin, weighing in at 22 lbs. We expect this to be his adult weight…but he can afford to gain a couple more pounds to fill out a bit. He’s a very picky eater and is not food or treat motivated. He is very people focused and is not fond of being left home (Or, even anywhere in the home) alone. Chopper is housebroken for the most part. He is not fond if being crated. He is up to date on all vet care…vaccinations, heartworm negative and on year-round heartworm prevention, neutered and microchipped. If you might be interested in adding this precious pup to your family, please email BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or call 847-852-0895 for information on adopting, and for an adoption application. BAARK is located in Barrington IL and adopts local to our area.

Story
Willis is a precious 6 year old boy, weighing about 15 lbs. He is thought to be a Corgi-Chihuahua Mix. He is a very social pup; he loves people and other dogs. He has experience living with a cat as well. His favorite activities include playing with toys, and spending time with his special person. Willis is visually impaired; his pupils were confirmed to be non-reactive to light. However he does not let his blindness get in his way of enjoying every day. In fact if you met Willis, you most likely would not even know his vision is limited. He follows sounds and gets around, finding his toys and treats without any issues. Willis would do best in a home with another dog who can teach him how to navigate his new environment and ensure his days are rich and happy! Anyone lucky enough to adopt Willis, would have a best friend for life. Willis has great house manners and can stay home alone, uncrated. He is fully vetted, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative and on year-round heartworm prevention, neutered and microchipped. If you are interested in adding this precious pup to your family, please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or 847-852-0895.

Story
Dobby is a cute younger pup, with an estimated date of birth, October 2024. He is full grown at 16 lbs. We are not quite sure of his breed but suspect it might be part French Bulldog and part Chihuahua!. He’s a shy, quite boy, scared of new people and new experiences. We anticipate that it will take him quite some time to adapt to his new forever home. So a very patient, compassionate forever family is needed to allow him to evolve on his own terms, to be the confident pup we are sure he can be. Since he is scared of quick movements, a home with small children would be inappropriate for him. He enjoys the company of calm, well-mannered dogs and most likely another dog in the family would be very beneficial for him. Dobby is up to date on vaccinations, neutered & microchipped, heartworm negative and on year-round heartworm preventative. If you are interested in adding this cute little pup to your family, please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or 847-852-0895. BAARK is located in the NW suburbs of Chicago, and adopts local to our area.

Story
Manny The Man is currently in a foster home. If you would like to meet him, please start by visiting www.sccrescue.org and completing an application.Meet Manny the Man, a little Chihuahua with a big heart and an even bigger talent for making himself right at home in yours. Manny is fully house trained and has excellent manners - he`ll even head toward the door when he needs to go out, though he`s just as polite about waiting for a cue. He`s calm, attentive, and listens well, already knowing commands like come, sit, and stay. While he may take a few minutes to settle in a crate, he does great overall, and in fact, his crate is often left open because he no longer needs it.Manny is a true companion dog in every sense of the word. He loves being close to his people and is happiest when he can touch you, especially curled up at the foot of the bed, pressed gently against your leg. He`s wonderfully affectionate without being demanding, rarely barks (only alerting to the doorbell or knocking), and is excellent when left alone. Manny also gets along beautifully with other dogs and is fantastic with cats, happily letting the cat be in charge. He`s very gentle with children as young as four, enjoying pets, treats, and even helping on walks.Out and about, Manny is a polite little walking buddy using a harness, staying nicely by your side or just slightly ahead without pulling. He prefers shorter strolls and tires easily, and he can be a bit tentative on grass, often opting for concrete after doing his business. He enjoys the simple pleasures - chewing on small rawhide sticks, playing gentle fetch with his fluffy toy during short bursts of energy, and keeping life calm and cozy. At about 22 pounds, he`s on a bit of a weight loss journey. If you`re looking for a sweet, steady, and endlessly affectionate man, then Manny the Man truly lives up to his name! We love our dogs. We want happy lives for all of them and are looking for the home that provides the best fit for each dog`s individual needs. Please understand that there may be multiple families interested in this dog. Also, please know that the breed mix listed is simply a guess. In most cases, we don`t know their background. We encourage you to base your decision on individual personality and pet qualities instead of relying on our guess. Please understand, we only adopt our animals out near the Chicagoland area.

He does not need or want to be crated. Duke is well-mannered and respectful of the home, people, and other pups in every way. In addition to his handsome face, Dukes other charming feature is his curlicue tail that looks like a helicopter or whirlybird that goes so fast when he is happy that you think he is going to take off. He has an infectious enthusiasm for life. Duke loves his walks, takes time to smell the roses, and will help you do the same. His most endearing features also include his Meerkat impression where he sits straight up to survey the scene when he is curious and his desire to spend time with you cuddled up on the couch. Duke has clearly known deep love in his life, and despite losing his beloved guardian he continues to greet the world with warmth, trust, and an open heart.Duke loves and deserves:ChickenNo-hide chew sticks that he buries, hides, uses as a toy, and carries in his mouth most of the day.A soft couch or bed to snooze onLeisurely walksCuddles (a non-negotiable)His people (most of all!!!)Though he has a little vision loss, Duke navigates life with bravery and grace, proving that heart matters far more than eyesight. This does not limit him. Duke is independent but would prefer to have someone home more than not in his golden years. He wants to be with the people he loves. He is an absolute pleasure to have by your side.We love our dogs. We want happy lives for all of them and are looking for the home that provides the best fit for each dog`s individual needs.

Story
HELLO! We are Spuds and Winnie… the perfect senior dynamic duo. Our beloved owner passed away and left us without a home. CDR stepped up and helped us find a soft place to land while we look far and wide for our furever home together. We have been together for 10 years, but when you meet us, you will realize that we still have quite a bit of pep left in our steps! And we will still make the perfect companions for someone looking for fun and lots of love! Our foster Dad asked us to tell you a bit about us, so here we go: Hello! My name is Spuds, but you can just call me “silly boy” because my foster Dad says I’m just a happy-go-lucky little dude. I LOVE playing in the yard, exploring the yard, just hanging out in the yard! In fact, sometimes my foster Dad has to make me come in! I have a cute, quiet bark to let you know it’s play time, potty time or hey! I’m hungry! I am short-haired, which means I will always look my most handsome with a bath and some brushing! And speaking of eating, I would like a cozy space of my own to eat in because I will steal the other dog’s food every chance I get. I guess you could say I’m a chow hound! Even though I’m an older boy, I still love to run and jump, and I walk great on a leash! AND… Hello! My name is Winnie, or Win for short. My foster Dad says whoever adopts Spuds and I will be the WINNER! I am VERY sweet and very cuddly, and will curl up in your arms as much as you will let me! But don’t let my hold me, please attitude fool you! I am quick on my feet and love to play with all the other dogs at my foster home. I must admit that yelling and strange, loud noises scare the heck out of me, so a quiet home would be perfect! And full disclosure, I have a heart murmur that requires me to take ½ a pill twice a day, but that murmur doesn’t slow me down at all! If you would like to meet us, please fill out a preadoption application, and a CDR volunteer will get back to you just as quick as they can! Sweet cuddles and happy tails-Spuds and Winnie The adoption fee for this pair is $400.00

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Lacy is one of our newest arrivals and this sweet little 3-year-old Chihuahua mix made her way to us all the way from Arkansas. She can be a little hesitant at first, but if you take things slow and let her come to you on her own terms, she warms up quickly and shows her sweet personality. Lacy prefers not to be picked up, but once she trusts you, she is happy to curl up in your lap for cuddles — as long as she’s the one making the first move. Her foster also discovered that Lacy willingly jumped right into the car, so we think it’s safe to say she may enjoy car rides too! Lacy is settling in nicely and learning that life can be full of kindness, comfort, and love. We can’t wait to watch this little girl continue to blossom. apply at projecthopearf.org Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 21, 2026, 7:25 pm
