Story

Meet Beach Ball! Beach Ball is a 1-year-old, 11-pound sweetheart who was found as a stray and brought to CACC with a badly injured back left leg. Understandably, she was frightened, uncomfortable, and unsure of everything around her. But after just a few days in a foster home, Beach Ball is already a completely different dog. Once she realized she was safe, her personality blossomed. She is incredibly cuddly and affectionate and absolutely loves being close to her people. Her favorite place is curled up in a lap, soaking up attention and enjoying the comfort of finally having a safe place to relax. Beach Ball is scheduled to have her injured back left leg amputated on September 30, but she is available for adoption before her surgery. And while “amputation” can sound scary, becoming a tripod dog is really not expected to slow Beach down much at all. She already gets around almost entirely on three legs because she doesn’t use her injured leg now. She walks around the house, gets where she wants to go, and can even handle stairs just fine. In many ways, she is already living like a tripod—the surgery will simply remove the painful, unusable leg that she’s currently carrying around. Dogs generally adapt incredibly well to life on three legs, especially young, small dogs like Beach. Her day-to-day mobility is expected to be minimally impacted, and after her initial recovery, she should still be able to walk, play, use stairs, explore, and enjoy life just like other dogs. The amputation is a routine procedure, and recovery is typically quick, with about two weeks of healing time. For now, her foster family is keeping her activity limited while she waits for surgery. She is doing wonderfully using pee pads and has also shown that she can share her space with both dogs and cats. Beach has also made huge progress with visitors. After just a couple of introductions—and a little cheese bribery—she warms up quickly and is happy to make new friends. Her confidence is growing by the day, and it’s been amazing to watch her realize that people can be safe, kind, and worth cuddling. Beach Ball has already shown just how quickly she can blossom with a little love and security. She may be losing a leg, but she certainly isn’t losing her independence, her sweetness, or her ability to enjoy life. If you’re looking for a tiny, cuddly companion who will happily become your professional lap warmer, Beach Ball may be your girl. She’s ready to continue her transformation from scared stray to spoiled, cherished family member.

Mae Mae

Jack Russell Terrier

Mundelein, IL

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Mae Mae is an adorable 10lb Jack Russell mix with soulful eyes who came to us from Southern IL, our vet thinks she’s around 6 to 9 months old. Mae Mae loves playtime! She loves to fetch her toys and show off her zoomies. Her tennis ball and squeaky toys are favorites, and she would enjoy a fenced yard where she can run and play, but it’s not required. Walks and playtime will make her just as happy! Once playtime is over, Mae Mae has another favorite activity: sleeping! She is crate trained and happily snoozes all night. In the morning, she stretches slooowly before looking for some cuddles. She’s working on her potty training, being crate trained is a foundational step towards being house broken. Her new family can continue with the consistency and positive reinforcement to help her finish strong! She’s a smart little one who learns quickly. Mae Mae can be a little shy and vocal when she first meets new people, but she wags her tail and warms up quickly. She can be bribed easily if new people offer treats! She gets along really well with other dogs and has been respectful of the cat in her foster home. Mae Mae will do well with someone who appreciates her animated Terrier personality and gives her the chance to keep learning. She absolutely shines when she has someone who plays with her, teaches her new things, and melts in for snuggles. She’s one of those small dogs that change big dog people’s minds about small dogs! Mae Mae is the perfect combination of zoomies + fetch + snuggles + serious napping. She's ready to find her people… those who will appreciate all the wonderful things that make her Mae Mae. Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 11-3 pm at 372 Townline Road in Mundelein, IL 60060 to meet our adoptable animals in person.

Sweetie Pie

Jack Russell Terrier

Female, 4 yrs 10 mos

Mundelein, IL

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Sweetie Pie! Sweetie Pie is a sweet, laid-back girl who loves being with her people but is also perfectly happy relaxing on her blanket nearby. She’s potty trained, travels well in her crate, and does great with dogs and kids. She’s also good with cats as long as they don’t run—because a running cat can quickly turn into a fun game of chase! Sweetie Pie loves going for walks and is always ready to sniff and explore. She enjoys meeting other dogs and has plenty of terrier instinct when it comes to squirrels, chipmunks, and other critters, so she’s still working on her leash manners and “leave it.” When she’s not out exploring, Sweetie Pie enjoys belly rubs, lounging on the couch, and playing with her favorite tennis ball and rope toy. She doesn’t bark much and can be wonderfully calm and content. She does get a little anxious when left alone in her crate and may whine or rearrange things while you’re gone. She seems to settle better when another crated dog is nearby. Sweetie Pie is also continuing treatment for a scratched eye and some skin issues, so her new family will need to keep up with her eye drops and care. Sweetie Pie is a lovable girl with a great mix of relaxed and playful. She’s looking for a family who will enjoy her walks, give her plenty of belly rubs, and appreciate all the sweet little things that make her special.

Story

Picket is a sweet, lovable little guy. He weighs in at 34 lbs and is just the right size for walking. He is not high energy but enjoys long walks and then comes home for a nap or a cuddle on the couch. He loves squeaking stuffies and chewing on nylabones. He also loves to play with his foster fur siblings. He would do better with a companion dog. He is not housetrained yet but is starting to get the idea after only 2 days in his foster home. He is taken outside every 2 hours during the day and once during the night. As long as the routine is consistent, he has not had any accidents. He has been crated for up to 2 hours and has done fine. No accidents in his crate and no chewing of his bed. He is still young, so he needs to be supervised and has only chewed on his toys and treats. He is a little shy but is quick to warm up in a calm environment. He gives the best little kisses. He has not been around kids or cats.
