Story
Linus is being fostered in PA. He is SIGHTED. Update  11/8/26 Linus has made tremendous progress with his health issues since July and is ready for his forever home to find him! He currently has a beautiful coat of fur that is soft as can be. He has some minor lingering skin issues, but they continue to steadily improve, especially with his recent injection of Befrena for dermatitis. We are not sure if he will need this long term but, if so, it is usually given every 6-8 weeks.   Linus recently had a dental and his teeth simply had some tartar but he did not need any extractions. He said as also treated for an ear infection. Linis has slightly swollen feet pads and he will occasionally lift a foot when standing.  This condition is improving slowly as his skin heals.  Allergy testing indicated that Linus has allergies to dust mites and milk.  He is currently on an antibiotic to try to get to the bottom of sneezing (sometimes with discharge).  He doesn't seem to be bothered by it but it would be nice to find the cause.  He continues to eat home made bone broth with each meal only because his foster mom feels it is very nutritious for this little guy and may help to improve his overall immune system. He is an amazing little guy who loves nothing more than to cuddle and eat.  Current medications that may be long term:  Apoquel tablets, Befrena injections.  Linus now weighs 17 pounds.If there are children in his home, they should be at least 8 years old and be respectful of dogs needing some space at certain times.  BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.

Story
Timber came to us in dire condition. He had been found by a Good Samaritan in the Dan Ryan woods and the matting on his legs was so severe that on one of his front limbs it had begun to cut into his leg, limiting circulation and resulting in the limb to begin dying off. By the time he joined CRA there was nothing to be done but amputate the limb. 

The speed at which Timber adjusted to that major physical change was astounding. He is one tough guy and barely skipped a beat. He is remarkably mobile still for an older gentleman who just had major orthopedic surgery, and sometimes he just does *too much* and doesn’t let anything slow him down. His pain tolerance has to be through the roof because his PT team said his back is tight and he needs regular massage and long walks should be done with the aid of a wheelchair to take some strain off the rest of his body but Timber says “I’m fine, just let me live.” We held off on scheduling Timber’s dental cleaning until we could get his heart checked fully to make sure the minor issue the surgeon detected during his amputation were situational instead of chronic, and now that he’s got a clear bill of heart health with a stellar echocardiogram, he’s getting scheduled for his dental cleaning and then he will be ready to join a very lucky family. 

Timber’s personality is pretty predictable considering his history. He can be incredibly independent, proving that he had to fend for himself for a very long time in his past, but he also has clearly been a loved family pet at some point as well because he adores human attention. He’s the most chill dude ever around other dogs, and doesn’t mind sharing attention, food, or anything. All of Timber’s major medical needs have been seen to, but as he is technically a senior with an orthopedic challenge, adopters should be prepared to keep him on joint and muscle supplements and keep a good relationship with their vet to make sure any age related changes are being managed.

Story
Max's owner had to go into a nursing home, and no one in the family would take him. So, he was turned into a very full municipal shelter and since we know that a little guy like this would make a terrific companion, we decided to take him in. He would be a great little guy for any family. He walks great on a leash and is housebroken. He's super sweet and ready to find his new forever family. If you think you would like to adopt Max, please click on the button that says "Ask About Me" and we will be happy to send you an adoption application. Max is being fostered in TN, but we can transport him to a destination near you. The transport fee is included in the adoption fee. We use the most animal friendly transport on the road.

Story
🐾✨ Meet Dali — A Sweet, Smart & Affectionate Poochon ✨🐾 📍 Location: Korea 🇰🇷 (able to fly once adopted ✈️) 🐶 Name: Dali 🎂 Age: 2 years old ♂️ Gender: Male ⚖️ Weight: 6 kg / 13 lb 🐕 Breed: Poochon 🎨 Color: Ivory ✂️ Neutered: Yes 🧡 Personality & Social Skills Dali is a sweet, affectionate, and very smart little boy who loves attention and being close to his person. 🥰 He loves being touched and cuddled and can be very affectionate once he feels comfortable. He can be a little stubborn at times, but he is clever and learns quickly. He may be shy when meeting new people, but with a little patience, he warms up and becomes loving and affectionate. 👩 With women: May be shy at first but warms up quickly. 👨 With men: Needs a little more time to feel comfortable, but becomes friendly once he gets to know them. 🐶 With dogs: He has limited experience with other dogs and may bark when he sees them. Once they are closer, he generally does well without major issues. 🐱 With cats: Does well with cats. 🏠 Lifestyle & Training ✔ Medium energy ✔ Fully potty trained indoors & outdoors ✔ Crate training in progress ✔ Leash walking practice in progress and improving ✔ Travels well in the car 🚗 ✔ Apartment-friendly ✔ Yard not required ✔ Can live happily as the only dog ✔ No tendency to run away ⚠️ Separation Anxiety Dali does have separation anxiety and may bark when left alone. He may also bark at outside noises or doorbells. Because of this, his ideal family would be someone who can give him time, patience, and gradual training to help him feel safe and comfortable when alone. 🤍 He may occasionally chew on hard objects because his teeth can still feel itchy, so appropriate chew toys are recommended. 💔 Rescue Story Dali was originally raised by a couple. After they separated, however, Dali was left alone and neglected in the home for a long period of time. Despite spending so much time alone, Dali has remained a loving and affectionate little boy who simply wants to be close to his people. 🥹🤍 Now, he is ready for a fresh start and is looking for a family who will never leave him behind again. 🌈 Dali is hoping to find a patient and loving forever family where he can finally feel safe, loved, and truly at home. 🏡🤍
