Story

We are on the payroll for loads of petting! That’s a pretty easy gig if you want our opinion. We went to a couple of community event and were told we both did a great job interacting with people of all ages and doggies. We were very patient with everyone and even got to spend some time relaxing in people’s lap. So we can’t wait to join a family, maybe even getting adopted with my sibling. Don’t forget that the second adoption fee is 50% off for Double the Love, Double the Fun! Sandy and Simon

Story

Meet Nellie Nellie, a Great Pyrenees, joined BAARK when her owner was no longer able to care for himself, much less her. As such, she was in pretty rough physical condition when she was surrendered, but clearly had received plenty of attention and love. Nellie is estimated to be 7-8 years old and weighs about 80 lbs. When meeting new people, Nellie is a little shy at first. We believe that this is because she had very little exposure to new people when with her previous owner. However, in her foster home, with patience and, in following the lead of her new canine friends, Nellie has really blossomed. She now gives kisses and lots of tail wags when her foster mom and dad get home from work. She gets along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes. In typical Great Pyr fashion, she loves patrolling the fence line and she is especially in tune to large birds flying overhead. Her foster family appreciates her level of alert, as Nellie watches over her much smaller foster brother and sisters in the home. Nellie is housebroken and is just fine being un-crated at home by herself. Nellie joined our rescue organization back in June. She is just becoming available for adoption as she has a long recovery from a mass removal on her paw pad (benign). She has 3 toes on that paw but gets around just fine. Nellie is in overall great health. She’s spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative and on preventative. If you are interested in adding this wonderful senior to your family, please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or 847-852-0895.

Biscuit

Great Pyrenees Labrador Retriever

Male, 4 yrs 1 mo

Barrington Hills, IL

Size

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

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Biscuit Biscuit is a beautiful Great Pyrenees-Lab mix with expressive golden eyes. He is estimated to be 4 years old, weighing in at 77 lbs. He’s in great shape and is an overall wonderful dog. Although a mix of two active breeds, Biscuit is a fairly calm, very sweet dog. He’s shown himself to be very smart and a very quick learner. He is housebroken and walks very nicely on a leash, alone and also along with his canine housemate. He’s great with other dogs and wonderful with people too. We do not know how he is with cats. Biscuit enjoys playing ball in his secure, fenced yard but is not interested in other toys. Typical of the Great Pyrenees breed, Biscuit is somewhat protective of his foster home and family, and, like a watchdog, alerts his foster to potential threats by barking. However once he is aware of the situation and sees it as non-threatening, he will welcome any stranger! An ideal family for Biscuit is one with large-dog, preferably Great Pyrenees or Labrador Retriever experience, a secure fenced yard, and the time to spend training Biscuit to evolve into the best version of himself. Older children should be ok but because of his size and enthusiasm, he could be too much dog for a younger child. Biscuit is fully vetted, up-to-date on vaccinations, neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative and on heartworm prevention. If you are interested in adding this gorgeous boy to your family and giving him the life he deserves, please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or 847-852-0895. Note that BAARK is located in Barrington IL; we adopt local to the Northwest Suburbs.

Story

Looking for a loyal companion with personality plus? Sherlock is your guy! This clever pup may have started life solving mysteries on his own, but now his greatest investigation is finding his forever home. Sherlock is a character with a silly, goofy, rule-bending personality. His favorite way to show affection? A good game of fetch! In fact, if you want to win this detective's heart, just bring a tennis ball to your meet-and-greet. The perfect partner for Sherlock will understand his unique needs. He is protective by nature, and his ideal home would be an adult-only household that can provide structure and consistency. Sherlock is very wary of strangers and it takes him some time to warm up to new people. But once you're in his inner circle, you'll discover a deeply affectionate and sweet soul who will bring endless joy to your life. He's currently working with trainers to polish his good-boy skills and is excited to show them off to the right family. Sherlock is dog-selective – he prefers dogs that are more playful and relaxed. He doesn’t get along with cats, however, and prefers to keep his investigations feline-free. Ready to be the Watson to this Sherlock? Contact us to learn more about this special boy! To ask about Sherlock, please contact us directly by calling 847-338-3252 or emailing info@redemptionroadinc.org See what's new with our rescue including updates on our animals and upcoming events: https://lnk.bio/redemptionroadinc Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/R4inc/ Instagram: @redemptionroadinc Our trainer's Instagram: @fullcircledogtrainer June 3, 2025, 5:32 pm
