Please give one of these deserving pups their happily ever after!THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN SAVING A LIFE!Volunteers and staff are excited to assist you in the adoption process!

ARTY Available for Adoption FAST FACTSMale, Small Mixed Breed, 12 lbs, 3 years oldCharming, Smart and PlayfulMedium energyPeople FriendlyDogs okCats UnknownCrate TrainedPotty TrainedChildren over 12 years oldSingle Family Home   Meet Arty: The Spunky Terrier/Chihuahua Mix   Arty here, and let me tell you, I've got personality for days! With my unique blend of Terrier and Chihuahua genes, I'm a little dog with a big attitude.   First things first, let's talk about my foster mom, Nancy. She's the bee's knees, the cat's pajamas, you name it. I'm as gentle as can be with her, showering her with sweet snuggles and plenty of love. She's my rock, my confidante, and I couldn't ask for a better foster mom.   Now, about those strangers. Let's just say I've got a bark that can rival a Great Dane's! Men, women, children, other dogs—you name it, I'll bark at it. But hey, it's not because I'm scared or anything. It's just my way of saying, 'Hey, I'm Arty, and I'm here!'   Now, let's talk playtime. I'm all about a good game of catch with my favorite toys. I'll zoom around the yard, chasing after that ball like there's no tomorrow. But don't be fooled—I'm not all action and no chill. I'm just as content snuggled up on Nancy's lap, enjoying a leisurely nap in the sunshine.   Speaking of sunshine, I've got a thing for grass. There's nothing I love more than rolling around in the green stuff, letting loose and being my silly self. Just check out the video on Slack—I guarantee it'll put a smile on your face!   In terms of my ideal home, I've got a few requests. A fenced-in yard would be paw-some, giving me plenty of space to roam and explore. And while I'm not opposed to little humans, I think I'd thrive best with older kids—maybe some young teenagers who can match my energy and zest for life.   So, if you're looking for a pint-sized pup with heaps of attitude and a heart of gold, look no further than Arty. With my playful spirit and unwavering loyalty, I'm ready to charm my way into your heart and make memories that'll last a lifetime. Let's make it official, shall we?   I have been microchipped and will be neutered and have had a full veterinary checkup and vaccines. My adoption fee is $325. For more information or if you would like to meet me, please fill out an adoption survey at carenorthshore.org/dog-adoption-survey Love and Licks Arty  May 9, 2024, 10:23 pm

IRIS Available for Adoption FAST FACTSFemale, Small Breed, 7lbs, 1 year oldCuddly, Affectionate, PlayfulLow EnergyPeople Friendly - slow to warm up to menChildren over 10 years oldDog FriendlyCat FriendlyPotty TrainedCrate Trained Meet Iris: The Playful Pup Woof woof! I'm Iris, the epitome of puppy energy and charm! With my pointy ears and wagging tail, I'm here to steal your heart and fill your home with endless joy. I'm a social butterfly who loves making friends, especially with my four-legged pals. Whether it's a game of tag with my husky buddy or a gentle wrestle with my senior pals, I'm always up for some furry fun with my foster family.  My life changed immensely when I was found in a Trailer Park in Dallas and luckily found my savior who found me a foster home until I was transferred to Care on a plane with one of their volunteers.  I was very lucky to travel in comfort. At night, you'll find me cozied up in my crate, snoozing peacefully after a long day of play. I'm still working on mastering the art of potty training, but I'm getting better every day. Plus, I'm a pro at letting you know when nature calls! I'm on the lookout for a forever family who shares my love for adventure and cuddles. Another doggy playmate would be paws-itively perfect, as long as they're cool with my playful antics. And while I adore older kids, I prefer ones who understand that I'm still learning the ropes. When I'm not romping around or snuggling up, you'll often find me chewing on my favorite toys or munching on sticks in the backyard. And if I ever get a little too rowdy, just make a purring sound—I promise it'll do the trick! So, if you're searching for a furry bundle of love and laughter, look no further than me, Iris! Together, we'll make endless memories and fill each day with wagging tails and wet kisses. Let's embark on this tail-wagging adventure together! I have been spayed and microchipped and have had a full veterinary checkup and vaccines. My adoption fee is $325.

Story
Meet Juliet, the darling 2-year-old long-haired Chihuahua who will melt your heart with her irresistible charm. With her fluffy coat and soulful eyes, she's the epitome of cuteness. Juliet is not just adorable; she's also a champion kisser and cuddler, showering her favorite person with endless affection and love. Currently in a foster home, Juliet has made remarkable progress, proving her willingness to learn. While she may be a bit wary of strangers at first, she's slowly overcoming her "stranger danger" with patience and encouragement. True to her breed, Juliet forms a deep bond with her chosen person, becoming their devoted companion. Despite her size, Juliet is an adventurous dog and loves nothing more than going on walks and exploring the great outdoors. Whether it's chasing butterflies or doing zoomies around in the yard, she's always up for some fun and excitement. Like any young dog, Juliet is still mastering the art of potty training, but with a consistent schedule and positive reinforcement, she's making great strides. She does have some resource guarding tendencies, especially with her beloved person and food/toys, but with clear boundaries and gentle guidance, she's improving day by day. Don't fret if this sounds like a lot! To ensure Juliet's continued progress, she comes with three free training sessions with a local expert who can provide valuable guidance and support. Trust us, investing in Juliet's training is a small price to pay for the love and joy she'll bring into your life. If you're ready to open your heart and home to this sweet girl, please fill out an adoption application and reach out to foster@orphansofthestorm.org to schedule a meet and greet with Juliet. Once you experience her charm and loving nature, you'll understand why she's truly worth it.

Story
Ellie Sue is a super sweet happy chihuahua. She isn't for everyone so please read carefully before you apply to adopt. Ellie Sue will steal your heart. That being said, before you apply you need to accept 2 conditions. Ellie Sue has a cataract that requires eye meds. They come from the compounder and she needs to see the opthamalogist. The meds run about $50.00 a month and will be required for life. It is not optional it is a requirement to adopt her, Ellie Sue is also quite a vocal girl. She believes it is her job to let you know that the wind is blowing. If the other dogs are playing she sits on the sidelines and shouts out her cheers and excitement like a sports announcer. When you leave she likes to be the town crier and let everyone know. She likes to express herself with some obsessive barking. It isn't going to change. This is how she is. If you can't accept it, move on to another dog. She doesn't need to be tortured with someone spraying water at her or discipling her. We don't want her to go into a home like that. If you tell her to tone it down she will but you will spend all day doing that. So either live with it or choose another pup. Now, if you got this far and want to know about her, then read on. Ellie Sue starts out a little shy. But once she is feeling safe she wants to crawl in your lap and stay there forever if she could. She's not clingy or needy, she simply loves her person. And if you aren't around she would be okay climbing into a bed as sharing it with an equally nice chihuahua or similar mate especially on a cold day! She tends to like males a touch more, She thinks its always cold like most chihuahuas do! That being said, she is quite content to sit outside in the sunshine even on a chillier day. Having a nice yard to bask in the sun makes her very happy Ellie Sue is both pee pad trained and outside trained. She really likes to go outside but giving her the option especially in rotten weather is quite convenient, Ellie Sue is fully vetted. She has been spayed, vaccinated, had a dental, and microchipped. Her adoption donation is $500.00. She is on the hunt for her own completely committed family, Little dogs can live a long life so she wants to be sure all applicants will stick with her for better or for worse! We adopt in the local Chicago metro area. We require home visits, If you would like to apply to be considered as an adoption candidate to adopt Ellie Sue please fill out an application for her adoption on our website at: https://www.rescuetailsanimalwelfare.org/info/adoption We are all volunteers with full time jobs. We try to get back to all applicants within 72 hours. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to us at: RescueTailsAnimalWelfare@gmail.com.
