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 ##2521075##

Story
Great Pyrenees = EXCELLENT Farm Dog Have a big Great Pyrenees ready to go to work protecting your flock and property. At about 135lbs, he's not a lap dog, go-fetch dog or a kids riding toy. He keeps the coyotes far away from my chickens and plays well with my other dog. He does not appreciate strangers roaming about the property either. Ideal home for him would be a large fenced in area and living with the animals you need protected. He was Vet checked in Sept and up to date on his rabies shots. Looks like a pure bred but has no papers. He's about 4-5 years old and has been neutered. Larger dog on right in picture is being offered rehoming fee is to cover listing cost and misc... I'd list him free, but want to ensure he goes to a good home that will give him a good life

Story
Meet River: A Gentle Giant with a Heart Ready to Heal 🐾 River is a 2–3 year old male Great Pyrenees with a quiet strength and soulful eyes that speak volumes. Weighing around 70 lbs, he was found as a stray in Boone County, severely matted and in need of care—likely on his own for quite some time. He’s since been shaved and is slowly regaining his dignity and grace. 🧬 True to His Pyrenees Nature: River embodies the classic traits of the Great Pyrenees: calm, sensitive, and deeply loyal. He’s good with other dogs and even cats, and while he enjoys human companionship, he’s shy and cautious—especially around new experiences. He flinches when someone reaches to pat his head, a heartbreaking sign that he may have endured past abuse. 🏡 Ideal Home for River: River will thrive in a home that understands the Pyrenees temperament: - A secure, fenced yard where he can roam and feel safe - A family with experience in the breed or large, sensitive dogs - A calm environment with older children (12+) or adults only - A canine companion would be a welcome friend River is housebroken and crate trained, though he prefers quiet freedom and gentle routines. Like many Pyrenees, he values independence but bonds deeply with those who earn his trust. 🩺 Health & Vetting: River is: - Fully vetted - Neutered and microchipped - Up to date on vaccinations - Heartworm negative and on year-round preventative 📍 Adoption Info: River is being fostered through BAARK Dog Rescue in the northwest suburbs of Chicago. We adopt locally within our area. If you feel you can meet River’s needs and offer him the loving forever home he deserves, please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or call 847-852-0895 for more information and an adoption application.

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.
