Story
Meet our sweet girl Dallas, Dallas was found dumped on the side of her road with her littermates. Her mom was dumped with her but sadly had been hit by a car and did not make it so the litter was left to fend for themselves. Luckily a good Samaritan found them, but they ended up in a shelter. No place for these puppies so rescue was found for them. At first, she was so scared of people, but she loves kisses and pets from her foster family. She will sit for a treat and is down for lots of belly rubs. She's doing great with house training. She knows and responds to 'crate-up'. She is pad trained and will go to the door to go outside. She loves to play with toys and dog chews.... she is intelligent, loyal, eager to please, loves her people, and easy to train. She'll make quick friends with anyone who’ll give her a belly rub. So, if you’re looking for a furry companion who will love you unconditionally and keep you on your toes, Dallas might be the one for you. Dallas would do great in a home with another dog to help her feel secure and someone she can play with. Older children would be okay, but we would prefer a home with no young children as everyone in the home needs to understand boundaries with puppies. We hope you'll give her a chance. Applications are being accepted. #toadvocate #toeducate #tosave

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. **If you are interested in being considered for this dog, please be sure to complete an application directly on our website - not through a 3rd party service.* Espresso is not just a Lab/ Aussie/ hound mix; she's a resilient, one-and-a-half-year-old miracle who turned her tale of adversity into a story of hope. This lovely lady had a rough start in life, as she was found tied to a tree, left to fend for herself. This sweet girl's journey took an unexpected turn when a kind soul rescued her and discovered that she was not alone—Espresso was pregnant. She was taken in, brought to rescue and given a safe spot to have her babies.  Since then, Espresso has been on a journey of healing and rediscovery, learning to trust people and embrace the love and care she deserves. Despite facing such hardship, Espresso's spirit has not been broken; instead, she's emerged as a shining example of resilience. Espresso is a beautiful 56 lb Lab / Aussie / hound mix. (Foster DNA TESTED). Espresso is dog-selective, and seems to enjoy the company of male dogs more than females.  She does not do well with cats.   She shines brightest in the company of humans, displaying a heartwarming affection once she's had the chance to warm up to her people and realize they are not there to hurt her, but to give her love and affection.  Espresso has  proven to be good with kids in her foster home, as long as they are respectful towards her requirement to warm up first. Espresso has been fed separately in her foster home as well, as she does tend to guard her food, another effect of having been left to fend for herself for God knows how long.  We feel this girl would do best in a home with a yard so please no apartments or condos.   As you consider bringing this wonderful Lab / Aussie /hound mix into your home, be prepared to be patient and understanding, offering Espresso the time and space she needs to fully blossom into the loving, affectionate companion she's destined to become. If you're ready to open your heart and home to Espresso, please reach out to us and be a part of her journey to a brighter, happier future. Together, let's make Espresso's second chance at a forever home the warm and loving experience she deserves Espresso’s adoption fee has been sponsored by a previous adopter who took in a wonderful dog with a similar background hoping a family could also give her a chance with a family of her own. (Includes microchip, spay at one of our contracted vets, and age appropriate vaccines) *HWMAR presents the information in these bios based on our foster observations and any information presented to us regarding prior living conditions, breed specifications.

ODYN

Dutch Shepherd American Pit Bull Terrier

Story
**COURTESY POST** Please call Danielle directly if interested.  847-452-7742 This is Odyn. Odyn is looking for a spiffy new home and someone to call his best friend!  Odyn came from an out of state high kill shelter and we haven’t been able to find a foster or forever home for him in over a year! He has spent most of the past year in a kennel facility and he deserves better. He is about 45lb, maybe 5 years old. We believe him to be a Dutch Shepherd/Pitty mix. He’s gentle and sweet with a little bit of sass. He loves humans and will do anything for a treat. He loves playing fetch with his ball or squeaker. He is a big snuggler and will melt into your lap if you let him. Odyn is very smart and knows most of his basic commands. He loves his crate and goes into his crate on command, does well in the car and on a leash, is potty trained, and does not have destructive habits. He seems fine with other dogs and cats while on a leash or through a fence as shown in the video, but we haven’t been able to successfully introduce him to other animals when he meets them nose to nose and no fence. We could possibly consider homing him with well balanced dogs the same size or smaller if introductions went well, but prefer him to be the only animal in the home. Odyn needs to be in a home with no children because he lacks a bit of confidence and the unpredictable behavior of children could make him nervous. He has not been behavior-tested with children. He would do best with a gentle, but structured human who can help him feel confident and secure, and one who is willing to continue any necessary training needed to build his confidence, if needed. When you meet Odyn, his gentle eyes and sweet demeanor will snatch your heart right out of you. If you can’t commit to adoption, he is in need of a foster home as well! Located Elgin, IL Please inquire today and come meet this deserving boy! Please contact Danielle to 847-452-7742 to meet Odyn ##1294602##

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. **If you are interested in being considered for this dog, please be sure to complete an application directly on our website - not through a 3rd party service.* Meet 2-year-old Banjo Blue,  an approximately 90 lb, American Pitbull Terrier.   Banjo Blue was brought into rescue when he was still a young pup in 2022. He was found very thin and needing help to thrive. One of our rescue partners took him in and nursed him back to health. He is a gentle giant that seeks love and affection. Banjo Blue does well with other dogs and loves kids, although he still thinks their lap is bigger than him. Banjo Blue is housebroken, crate trained, does well on a leash, and knows basic commands. He is very treat motivated and willing to learn. He also loves to spend evenings on the couch, watching tv!   Banjo would love a yard to play in, go for walks, car rides, and camping. Due to his larger size and exercise needs apartments/ condos are not best for this boy.  Banjo would be a great dog for a first-time owner or a family that's open to teach him new things and show him a life of love and adventure. Banjo Blue’s adoption fee is $350.00 (Includes microchip and age appropriate vaccines) *HWMAR presents the information in these bios based on our foster observations and any information presented to us regarding prior living conditions, breed specifications.
