Lake In The Hills, IL

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

A few years ago, this sweet girl was found dumped along the fence of our rescue! She was skin and bones and needed immediate help, so we named her MayDay. Our best guess is she around 6 or 7 years old and a Great Dane/ Staffshire terrier mix. She is very gentle, loves people, and really enjoys car rides. Mayday gets along with males, but is not very playful with other dogs. She would do best as the only fur baby in the home. Since she has been a kennel dog her whole life, MayDay is not pot trained so she will need a family who understands that. This dear girl would love a chance to live out her days in the comfort of a home with a family who will love her! If you want to give MayDay that chance, find us at https://www.tailsoftheforgottenpaws.org/ to fill out an application or on facebook (tails of the forgotten paws)

Story

Willow is an elegant sweetheart whose shiny black coat turns heads everywhere she goes. Don’t let her size fool you — this girl is truly a gentle giant who seems to think she’s a lap dog at heart. She’s the perfect blend of sweetness, silliness, and snuggles, wrapped up in one big, lovable package. After being neglected and underfed, Willow is finally getting the love she deserves, and she’s blossoming beautifully. Now she’s ready for a family who will make her feel like she truly belongs — a home where she can follow her people like the loyal shadow she is and soak up all the affection she missed out on. Willow’s ideal day includes lounging on a big, comfy bed, playing with her stuffed toys, and savoring peanut butter or beef bones (her absolute favorites!). She’s happy, relaxed, and loves being wherever her people are. She enjoys playtime, too — toys are her love language! She does well with other dogs, is very curious about cats, and we’re still learning how she does with children. What we do know is that she has a gentle spirit and so much love to give. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a soft heart and a silly streak, Willow might just be the perfect girl for you. Willow is ready to meet her forever family — could it be yours? Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 12-4 pm at 372 Townline Road in Mundelein, IL 60060 to meet our adoptable animals in person.

Aruba's Romo

Great Dane Labrador Retriever

Male, 6 yrs

Elgin, IL

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Story

Mr Loyal! That is what describes this boy in one word. Romo was once owned by someone in Aruba who then moved to the Netherlands. They gave him to some friends that let him roam the streets. We found him strolling along at a bus stop with a huge hematoma on his ear. He jumped right in the car and we took him to the vet. He had surgery and has now recovered from it. We were asked to take him with us to the US as the new owners didn't have the means to take care of him. Romo is an extremely loyal dog, calm and quiet and at the same time friendly with people and dogs. He's is extremely well mannered. Call us to hear about him and learn why we think he is the most loyal dog. His previous owner says he is 4 years old ( the vet says 5) and if you look on our Facebook page you will see all his posts about him. Oh and yes he loves riding in the car with you. He is house broken, does not like the cage to much, but that's ok. He doesn't get himself in trouble in the house. This is a great big dog! He mostly looks like a Great Daner, but could also have some Labrador in it. He is not a drooler like the Danes are. He likes other dogs but will also do well when being just with his special person. We would like to adopt him out within 40 miles of Elgin. His adoption fee is $350 to help us with the cost for his plane ride and the associated vet expenses.

Story

Esther is a 2.5-year-old Great Dane whose gentle spirit shines despite the hardships she’s faced. Transferred from Chicago Animal Control as a stray, she arrived very underweight and is still working on regaining her health with careful, patient feeding.

It’s her way of saying just how much she loves and trusts you. 💕 Esther thrives in calm, loving environments where she can feel safe, take things at her own pace, and continue building her strength and confidence.

Story

Bruno needs lots of love. He was abandoned by his first family. They literally left him in their house when they moved away. When we first got him, he was skiddish, always cowering when we would reach out to pet him. He acts more like a dog now, but he is very protective. He does not like to be left alone.
