Story
Hazel is very hyper. She loves to attack people’s feet and ankles. I would describe her as energetic, crazy, funny, and hyper again. She is 1 years old and some change. We got her from a litter who couldn’t take care of all the dogs hazel “mom” had. I just want the home she goes to to be loving and train her the right way so she doesn’t attack anyone. Also, for them to give her the love and care she needs.

Story
Everyone meet our sweet girl Skye! Skye was dumped outside our clinic a few months ago in pretty rough shape! She was skins and bones but quick to trust us! After some TLC from our staff she has quickly gained her weight back and is almost 40 pounds now! She’s a petite girl and the cutest little girl with a huge personality. Skye can be a little protective over her food bowl which can be understandable due to the condition she was found in. She can also be a little protective over her toys so we are hoping we can find a rescue that can help work with her on this! She loves to give hugs and kisses and just loves attention! Skye tested well with other dogs but is a little too curious for cats. Please share so Skye can find rescue pull! If interested in fostering Skye send us a message and we can put you in contact with a local rescue that we work with! Available at County Line Pet Hospital 708-754-2351 Clphadoption@gmail.com

Story
🚨In need of licensed rescue or someone willing to foster her through a licensed rescue🚨 Everyone meet Freya! Freya was found a few months ago in our field outside our building by one of our employees. Freya unfortunately was never claimed by an owner and is now in need of a foster home to decompress. Freya has quickly become stressed out in our kennels and needs out asap! She is not a fan of other dogs and will need a foster home where she is the only pet or can be kept completely separate from other pets. During her initial behavior test she showed some possessiveness over her food bowl and toys and was a little weary around strangers at first. However our kennel attendants have been working hard with her on training and she’s been doing wonderful! She is very treat motivated and eager to learn new tricks. Freya has quickly shown us how smart she is! Freya knows sit, stay, come, paw, spin, and speak! We would love nothing more than to get Freya out of our kennels and into a foster home to continue her training and working with her. If you are interested in fostering Freya through a licensed rescue, send us a message and we can put you in touch with rescues that we work with! Clphadoption@gmail.com 708-754-2351

Story
Rocket, that’s the name he was given when me and my brother got him as a puppy. he is an amazing dog and such a good boy. he loves to play catch & only got to learn, sit, drop (ball) he’s a good listener. we got him on may15,2023 so he’ll be a year next month. we love him we do but the timing wasn’t right no matter how much we tried. He is a handful and we weren’t ready to give him 100% of our attention due to work and already had a smaller dog and a cat which they didn’t really get along. he’s never bit anyone but he’s always been very territorial on his toys. he would growl but never in a hurtful way and is always so happy to be outside and will jump so high to catch his toys. he never got used to having a bed because he would always rip the beds or anything with stuffing in it. It would be ideal for him to find a better home then what we could have given him by someone who able to spend more time with him or have another dog with the same build to play with so he wouldn’t be alone.
