Wilson

Pug

Male, Puppy

River Forest, IL

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We bought Wilson from a breeder when he was a puppy. He is now 3.5years old and needs a family who will have time to train him and play with him. We have another older dog in the home and the two have been battling for alpha in the home by way of marking. Wilson does well with urinating outside but if left to freely roam in the home he needs to be monitored for urinating. He gets overly excited when he sees other dogs and barks at them. He has started biting the fence when the neighbor dog comes outside. He has a lot of energy and it is difficult for us to take him for walks with 2 young children. He has not been properly trained which we think he would benefit greatly from. He sleeps with our son in his bed and does well with the kids, but again is overly excited most of the time. We are hoping to find a home where he will get more attention and walks to be able to enjoy his life to the fullest.

Root Beer

Australian Cattle Dog

Female, Adult

Chicago, IL

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Root Beer is no stranger to ALIVE Rescue. She was rescued by us back in August of 2017. Root Beer came from a hoarding situation in Chicago where over 40 dogs and puppies were living. Many of the dogs had parvo and Root Beer broke with parvo on the day we were saving her. Luckily, after staying in the ER for several days, she survived. Root Beer has been adopted twice into two loving families since her rescue and we have learned a lot about what makes her happy in a forever home. She bonds quickly to one person in a home and that person becomes HER person. She feels a sense of responsibility to protect that person from everyone else living and visiting the home. At this time, we will only be adopting Root Beer into a home with ONE adult and no children. She also has to be the only animal in the home, so no other dogs or cats. Root Beer doesn't do well with city life where there are too many people, cars and dogs. She'd do best in a single family home in the suburbs. Whoever adopts this girl is going to be really lucky. She will keep you laughing all day long with her happy-go-lucky personality. She's a total goof ball. She likes to feel the wind in her fur. If you are active and like the outdoors, she's your girl. She loves to be outside just sitting and smelling Mother Nature. If she's not resting outside, she is exploring and roaming around. She flourishes at the beach and will walk right in and swim. When she's not busy exploring and being adventurous, you'll find this girl snoozing. She's an expert napper and has never met a blanket or pillow she doesn't love. Falling asleep to tummy rubs is kind of the best. When she's feeling affectionate she'll let you scratch her head and she'll burrow her head into your hand. Let's talk toys....this girl LOVES tennis balls and her favorite is to sprint after the ball & catch it mid-air. Squeaker toy stuffies are the name of the game. And she's really great with puzzle toys. She's a smartie. Speaking of smart, Root Beer also knows basic commands including Shake, Toy, Ball. She will even make her way to the door when you say "inside and knows her bed to be "Place. Training her is easy because she is VERY treat motivated. Not sold on her yet? Root Beer is completely housebroken and is not destructive. Double bonus! Interested in learning more about this girl? Visit aliverescue.org and complete the adoption application.

Randy

American Pit Bull Terrier Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, Adult

Chicago, IL

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Look up "good boy" in the dictionary, and you're sure to find a picture of Randy! This playful pup is a trusty companion while you're working from home. He'll curl up and nap when you're busy, but he'll gladly play a game of tug-o-war with you during your 10-15 minute breaks. He's completely potty trained and is great at knowing which toys he can chew and which can't - this means he won't leave any surprises during any conference calls. During the weekends, he loves to chase tennis balls, go on walks and chew on his plush toys. But don't worry - if you need a calm night in, he'll happily curl up with you on the couch while watching TV. Randy is a curious creature who remains a bit cautious around new people and dogs. But he warms up after a few minutes and is very gentle and friendly. We can see him doing quite well in a house with kids, but he'll be great in any home that will give him the love he deserves. His foster parents have described him as "one of the easiest fosters we've ever had. Help us find his fur-ever home!

Story

Darra is large 9 year old German Shepherd Dog (85 lbs). Darra was initially rescued when she was about a year old (2013) and has made the move from Chicago to Dallas! Darra will develop a strong bond with her human and focus most of her attention on them. She loves going on walks and chasing squirrels in the backyard. She walks well on a leash and obeys simple commands. While Darra is tolerant of young kids, she would be better suited in a home with older children. Darra loves attention and will constantly ask for pets!
