Story
Her name is Nova, I would say she just turned 2. She's very nice very friendly but has anxiety attachment which is understandable after being removed 3 time. She wasn't well educated from previous owners and now its all fall down into me and my partner and he thinks he has time and all the attention for her but does not. I do not want to irresponsible and let her suffer by letting her just be at home. She has destruction behavior issues and very territorial.

Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium) Bull Terrier

Male, Adult
Arlington Heights, IL
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Tux was adopted from a local animal shelter in September 2021. He is easy to care for, house-trained, and understands some basic commands, though he could benefit from additional professional training. Tux has a gentle nature, is not aggressive, and loves to play. Due to my son's severe allergies, Tux currently stays in a large room near the patio, where he has plenty of space to move around but doesn’t roam the entire house. The ideal home for Tux would be with someone who can spend quality time with him, offering the attention and affection he enjoys. He loves going for walks on a leash, exploring the backyard, and especially adores belly rubs. Tux thrives in an environment where he can play, interact with his humans, and enjoy outdoor time. Playful, curious, and affectionate, Tux would make a wonderful companion and the perfect addition to a loving home where he can receive the care and attention he deserves. His crate, playpen fence, bed, food and more will be included for free.

Meet Max, a delightful four-and-a-half-year-old Labrador Retriever mix from Arlington Heights, IL, whose shiny black coat with gold accents reflects the warmth of his playful spirit. Max is the epitome of a family dog—friendly, gentle, and eager to please. With his calm demeanor and cheerful outlook, Max has a way of making everyone feel at ease, from little ones to fellow four-legged friends! Max’s favorite activity is playing fetch, and he’ll happily chase after a ball as many times as his caregiver has the energy to throw it. He’s also an absolute gentleman on walks, making every outing a peaceful and enjoyable experience. Thanks to his formal obedience training, Max is a star at following commands like “sit,” “heel,” “jump,” “down,” and “back.” Whether it’s learning new tricks or sticking to his well-practiced routine of morning and evening walks, Max approaches every task with enthusiasm and focus!

Story
Emmer is at our shelter. Please submit an application from our website or just come in to meet her during open hours! Scroll through her pictures to see her cute videos! Sweet, wide-eyed Emmer was surrendered to Chicago Animal Care and Control after her owner lost their housing. Emmer was at CACC for over a month, and seemed so heartbreakingly sad. We decided to take her in to our rescue, and we are so glad that we did! Emmer was known to be a shy and reserved dog, a wallflower, and indeed she was...for the first two hours! Shortly after her arrival to us Emmer must have realized she was safe and almost home free, because her entire demeanor changed... She is just a normal pup who wants to party! Emmer loves her dog pals, and loves swimming and splashing in water, as you can see in her videos! She loves playgroup, and is a star. Emmer really turned her frown upside down so quickly, and now she will not stop smiling and showing us all that Fruit Roll Up tongue of hers! We love when dogs finally feel safe and happy enough to show us their sparkle. Never stop shining, Emmer! Emmer's adoption fee is $300. This animal is spayed, up to date on core vaccines, and Heartworm negative.

Story
Bullseye is at our shelter. Please submit an application from our website or just come in to meet him during open hours! Scroll through his photos to see his cute video content! Bullseye is just a ball of fun. He loves other dogs, he loves hugs, and he loves life. Bullseye arrived to Heartland from Texas, and wasted no time getting the party started. He's just the happiest, silliest boy! Bullseye is just under a year, so while he is out of the teething, potty-every-hour phase, he will still need to work on his basic training and manners. He is well on his way, he isn't mouthy and he is incredibly social with humans and dogs alike. As you can see in his videos, it's hysterical to watch him play, he is quite the clown! Bullseye would be a great fit for an active family or couple, and is so eager to please and enthusiastic. We hope you will come meet him soon so he can be the daily dose of sunshine in his very own home! Bullseye’s adoption fee is $300. This animal is neutered, up to date on core vaccines, and Heartworm negative.
