Story
Meet Fiona: the gentle girl who will quietly steal your heart. Fiona is a 45-pound mixed-breed sweetheart with a soft spirit, a goofy smile, and an incredible talent for making people feel loved. Shortly after meeting a new friend, she quietly walked over and rested her head in their lap. That’s Fiona: affectionate without being demanding, social without being clingy, and wonderfully gentle. Give her a good butt scratch and her whole face lights up. Stop petting, and she may lean her body into you as a subtle request for more. Talk to her and her tail starts softly wagging. She loves sniffing, walks, treats, cuddles, zoomies - and will even do zoomies on command! She takes treats exceptionally gently and seems eager to connect and learn. She keeps her kennel very clean and may already be housetrained, though her home manners are still unknown. She has done well with the dogs she has met and especially seems to enjoy puppies. Fiona was born around April 2025, and she has been spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated. She is extremely healthy and ready for her chance at a forever home. Her adoption fee is $400. If this sweet, kind-hearted girl sounds like your kind of dog, please apply today! Fill out an application at: https://www.adoptablefriends.org/adopt

Story
Maddie’s signature hello is a gentle lean against your legs—her way of asking, “Could you stay and pet me?” This warm, outgoing girl doesn't seem to have ever met a stranger. When she comes out of her kennel, she gently presses close for affection. Despite her love of people, she doesn't jump up or bombard people - she seems to know that a soft approach is all she needs. And there’s so much to love beyond her snuggles. Maddie is remarkably quick to learn, picking up new skills in just one or two sessions and remembering them. She is very excited to work for treats - or even just her regular kibble. She also carries toys around like little comfort objects. About five years old, Maddie came in to rescue with her eight puppies who she raised with patience and care. Most have found homes. Now it’s her turn. Healthy and athletic, Maddie appears to have a moderate energy level. Think neighborhood walks, playful moments, a little training, and plenty of time close to you. Maddie is a mixed breed dog who weighs about 50 pounds. Maddie is spayed and up to date on vaccinations. Her adoption fee is $400. Ready to meet this incredibly kind, gentle-hearted girl?

Story
Meet Kibble! Kibble is a sweet 2-year-old Terrier mix with a happy personality, a playful spirit, and so much love to give! She came to rescue from Tunica, Mississippi, and is ready to find a patient family who will continue helping her learn, grow, and thrive. Kibble is potty trained, crate trained, and does great with other dogs. She loves being around her people and enjoys having dog friends to play with. She happily plays with her Chihuahua foster sibling and isn’t intimidated by the big hound mix in her foster home. Kibble truly just wants to be part of the fun! Kibble’s favorite things include: Her Toys  Chew toys Neighborhood walks Playtime with her people and dog friends Companionship and being included in family activities Giving lots of kisses! Kibble may be 2 years old, but she still has plenty of puppy energy! She is curious, playful, and sometimes needs reminders about what belongs to her and what doesn’t. She may try to “help” herself to tissues from the Kleenex box or mistake a harness for a chew toy, so she will need a family who can provide supervision, appropriate toys, and continued training. Kibble is not a big fan of her crate and may cry at first, but she settles quickly. Her foster family has learned she does best with safe collar and harness management, as her curious nature can sometimes get her into silly situations. Kibble would thrive with someone who has the time to play with her, exercise her, and give her the attention she loves. She is a sweet, affectionate girl who enjoys both human companionship and the company of other dogs. If you’re looking for a loving, playful companion with a little puppy mischief mixed in, Kibble may be your perfect match! She’s ready to bring her kisses, wiggles, and fun personality to her forever home.   Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 11-3 pm at 372 Townline Road in Mundelein, IL 60060 to meet our adoptable animals in person.   Follow us on Facebook for additional updates and sneak peeks of new dogs!  https://www.facebook.com/reachrescue ##2843377##

Story
Dudley is an adorable German Shepherd mix puppy who is almost 4 months old and ready to find his forever family! Dudley came into rescue with his sister, Dora, and is now getting to enjoy all the fun that comes with being a puppy. He is affectionate, curious, playful, and full of puppy energy and love. Like most puppies his age, Dudley is still learning all about the world and what it means to be a good dog. His new family should be prepared for all the fun—and occasional chaos—that comes with puppyhood, including continued potty training, crate training, basic obedience, socialization, chewing, playtime, and plenty of naps! Dudley is expected to grow into a large dog, so his family should be prepared for a big pup who will need plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and continued training as he grows. German Shepherd mixes are often smart and active, and Dudley will thrive with a family who is ready to help him learn and keep his growing mind and body busy. This handsome boy is looking for a family who will be patient, consistent, and committed to helping him become the best adult dog he can be. In return, Dudley promises to fill your home with puppy kisses, goofy antics, zoomies, and lots of love. If you're ready for the adventure of raising a big, lovable puppy, Dudley is ready to meet you!   Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 11-3 pm at 372 Townline Road in Mundelein, IL 60060 to meet our adoptable animals in person.   Follow us on Facebook for additional updates and sneak peeks of new dogs!  https://www.facebook.com/reachrescue ##2843648##

Story
Moe is a young Boxer mix with a big personality and a loving heart. He’s potty trained, crate trained, listens well, and does great with other dogs. Moe is generally good-natured and likes to stay close to his people—he enjoys being part of whatever’s going on. Moe loves toys and snuggles and has an active, playful side that will thrive with an engaged family. He would do best in an active home that can provide structure, exercise, and continued training. Because Moe can get mouthy during play, he should not be placed in a home with small children. Moe will need an experienced dog owner. While he shows no signs of aggression in daily life, he has reacted with little warning when medications are applied to his ears or skin during treatment for infections. Outside of these situations, he is affectionate and stable. His future family should be comfortable working with a veterinarian and using management strategies for medical care. One thing to note—Moe is curious and a known countertop surfer! Food should be kept out of reach, as he won’t hesitate to help himself if given the chance. Moe is looking for a knowledgeable, active home that understands his needs and will love him for the fun, loyal companion he is. With the right fit, Moe will be a devoted sidekick ready for adventure, play, and plenty of cuddle time.   Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 11-3 pm at 372 Townline Road in Mundelein, IL 60060 to meet our adoptable animals in person.
