Story
Raven is my name and kind of like a raven, I am a 'loner'... except for the puppies i had when I arrived at the rescue... I was saved by a trapper on the streets, they weren't even there to save ME that day, but they did!!! I am obviously a beautiful girl, big and solid as well as black and brindly. I am a loving girl, in my own way... i lived on the streets for who knows how long and I honestly am not a cuddly girl or even a sit by your feet dog, YET... I have all kinds of love to give, you can see in my eyes that I have always dreamed of someone with the patience to love me for who I am and who I can be!! I am great on a leash and do love walking around and exploring. I am good with other dogs and likely would do best with another dog who is calm and confident with his/her family. I am so so ready for you, I have the shepherd double coat so I will shed in your house, must have a great vacuum cleaner and tolerance of hair :) Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Pablo is a retired trailing dog (scent training) that is looking for a home to live out his retirement. He is about 8 years old. He still has a lot of energy, enjoys going for walks, and playing ball in the yard. Pablo comes full trained (potty, house, and obedience) and would be great for someone that works long hours but still likes to be active. He would prefer a home with no kids, but would be fine with teenagers. If you'd like to meet Pablo, email us at bombshellbullies@hotmail.com!

Born: May 17, 2025 I am looking for my forever home. Mia is a super sweet, pocket-sized girl who’s absolutely full of love. Still just a baby, she’s growing up in the shelter and dreaming of a home to call her own. She walks well on a leash and makes a great little walking buddy, but she also has a playful side and enjoys a good run to burn off some puppy energy. Mia’s loving nature and fun spirit make her the perfect mix of cuddle bug and adventure partner. She’s ready to grow up by your side and fill your days with joy.

Cuddi

German Shepherd Dog

Male, 8 yrs 1 mo
Chicago, IL
Size
(when grown) -
Details
Not good with dogs, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
"He is easy to care for! Cuddi has been a joy to have at our house. He is so sweet, playful, funny, smart, a constant companion and listens well. Despite his anxiety, he is quite good on his leash and can calmly pass dogs from a distance, only barking if startled by another dog barking first. He does amazing free roaming and sleeping on his own. He met 4 family members within the first 7 days and after his barking welcome, he loves and plays with them all. Cuddi is an incredible companion and if we could, we would have adopted him immediately." - Just a few of many praises sung by Cuddi's foster. Cuddi is a lovable senior shepherd that's been looking for a family since February. He is a Special Care pet due to arthritis and anxiety, which are both well managed with medication. Cuddi should be the solo dog in the home because of his fear towards other dogs. He doesn't let that stop him from enjoying his walks, though, easily practicing skills such "Look at That" to pass right by. Cuddi is smart; he knows sit, eye contact, and down, too, and is potty trained. He still has plenty of heart and play left in him, too, a big fan of fetch and toys. Cheese, naps, and snuggles are a few more of his favorites. Please take our senior sweetie home! Cuddi is currently in foster care so, if you're interested in adopting, please fill out an application at this link (https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ACIL/Dog) and please specify the animal's name and ID number (if the ID number is not entered, we may mix up the animal you're interested in!) A staff member will reach out to you asap to discuss your application.

Xena

German Shepherd Dog

Female, 3 yrs 3 mos
Chicago, IL
Size
(when grown) -
Details
Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Xena, a gorgeous, gentle girl who wins hearts everywhere she goes. She’s sweet and calm, but also loves a little adventure — fetch, outdoor lounging, and belly rubs are her favorites. She’s fully potty trained, crate trained, great on leash, and knows lots of commands. Xena adjusts beautifully to new environments and matches the energy of the person she’s with. She’s been around crowds, kids, strollers, and busy markets with total ease. In her previous home she loved toys (especially Chuck-it balls), though shelter stress has made her a bit quieter here. She’s part of our special care program due to a minor eye injury that may need attention later, but it doesn’t affect her vision or slow her down. If you’re looking for a loving, loyal, easygoing companion, Xena is ready to be your best friend. If you're interested in Xena, contact us for more info. We offer same-day adoptions, free parking, and guide you through the process from start to finish! Learn more about hours and the adoption process at https://anticruelty.org/adopt-info.

Chicago, IL
Size

Details
Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Maybel — short for Maybelline — is a stunning 10-month-old girl with the most striking blue eyes that look like she’s wearing perfect eyeliner all the time. At around 50 pounds, she’s the perfect mix of playful puppy energy and sweet, affectionate companionship. She’s incredibly smart, eager to learn, and already doing wonderfully with potty training and leash training. Maybel is great with other dogs and has such a loving, gentle personality once she feels safe and comfortable. Like many rescue dogs, she can be a little hesitant around men at first, but with patience and kindness she quickly begins to open up and show her sweet, goofy side. Maybel is looking for a family that will continue helping her build confidence and show her that the world can be a safe, loving place. In return, she’ll give endless loyalty, cuddles, and those unforgettable blue-eyed stares.
