Story
Anna is a happy, active Maltese with a big personality packed into a little body! She absolutely adores people and is wonderful with kids and other dogs, making her a fantastic fit for a social, loving home. This sweet girl loves to play—especially with her soft toys—and would thrive in a moderately active home where she can enjoy time outdoors and stay engaged. Whether it’s playtime, adventures, or cuddles, Anna is always ready to be part of the fun. One thing to know about Anna: she does have a bay-style howl, so she’s not shy about using her voice when she’s excited or wants to join the conversation! If you’re looking for a playful, people-loving pup with lots of charm and character, Anna may be your perfect match 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.

Story
Spike is a handsome maltipoo mix. He can be a little shy at first, it takes him a minute to trust someone and warm up. But once he does, you have best friend for life! He is a very happy cuddly dog. Spike has the most fun natural blonde Mohawk that just adds to his charm! DOB 5/8/24 and around 25 lbs. Spike prefers a home without cats and, honestly, would do best as the only furry companion. He can be a bit of an attention hog and doesn’t like to share his favorite human! He would also do best in a home with no kids or kids over 12, who will respect his personal space while he adjusts to a new environment. He does have a lot of energy, so he also has his paws crossed for a backyard with a privacy fence! Find our application on our website https://www.tailsoftheforgottenpaws.org/

Story
Imogen is a gentle little soul who seems to float through life on quiet paws. At 12 years young, this sweet Shih Tzu has perfected the art of calm companionship—she’s soft, serene, and radiates an almost angelic peace wherever she rests. If you’re looking for a dog who brings tranquility and warmth into your home, Imogen is your girl.Imogen is wonderfully easygoing and happy just being near her people. She adores lap time, gentle scratches, and loving attention when she’s awake, though she’s equally content spending much of her day napping sweetly in her cozy bed. She never barks, has no bad habits, and is beautifully well-behaved when left alone—no crate required.This precious girl is blind and hard of hearing, which only adds to her peaceful nature. She doesn’t need commands to thrive—just routine, patience, and love. Imogen does best on the lower level of the home and prefers to avoid stairs, snow, mud, and other tricky surfaces. She enjoys being outside when the weather is kind, especially if there’s a clear, shoveled path for her to stroll.Imogen is indifferent to other dogs, unfazed by the world around her, and simply asks for a soft place to land and a gentle human to love. She’s an old soul with a heart full of quiet devotion—ready to be someone’s little guardian angel at home.Interested in adopting this dog?

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Gladys!  Gladys is an approximately 1 year old sweet Maltese that just arrived from transport.  Although she just arrived, her true personality has already came through! Making her a heart stealer and a perfect buddy to follow you around!  Here’s more about Gladys:  Walks- She walks great on leash, and tends to look back, making sure she is pleasing you and near you!  Crate- She willing goes in her crate (well with some slight bribery, a treat preferably).  Cuddles- Gladys loves some cuddles, and is sure to lay down and show you her belly, making her the perfect late night move partner!  Overall, Gladys is sure to steal your heart! If you are looking for a sweet, cuddly and loyal pup she is your girl. Gladys recently underwent surgery to remove a cancerous mammary tumor. Thankfully, the tumor was completely excised, and she is currently cancer-free. While this is very positive news, she will require ongoing preventative care and regular veterinary monitoring to help ensure her continued health and to catch any potential concerns early. With proper follow-up care and attention, her prognosis is very good, and she is expected to live a happy, healthy life.  apply at pharf.orgVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.February 2, 2026, 4:21 pm
