Story
Mary is a 4 year old Maltese ready to find a great home! Mary was surrendered by family after the owner passed away in December of 2024. Unfortunately, scant details were provided about her. What we do know for certain is that she is young(er), was in poor condition (flea infestations), pancaked over thresholds, and was woefully under socialized. The really great news is that she is blossoming with good care, good food and a whole lot of love! Given Mary’s proclivity for running zoomies, jumping on furniture and dogs, she is very much a puppy. Our best guess is no more than two years of age. Despite the joy and zest with which Mary greets life, she is timid. Mary expects for you to hit her when she is approached. She will immediately pancake to the floor, cowering. When she first arrived in foster care, Mary suffered two seizures which were most likely precipitated by the stress of constantly moving homes. Mary is on a vet approved protocol of CBD for seizures and has not suffered any additional seizures since. Mary is now house trained and is able to eat her food and digest without throwing everything up an hour after a meal. Mary, all sweetness and youth, acts as if her world is unsafe. She will require a home that is able help her become relaxed with knowing she is loved. Mary must have a very secure fenced yard as she is a runner and will jump and run at a moment’s notice. Mary will do okay as an only dog but would do best with an active household with a confident, patient dog to teach Mary the ropes. Mary will bully a timid dog as she plays rough and pushes the limit. Mary is wary of a harness and allows one to be fitted but is still a scrambler on a leash. She is smart and will learn this in time. Mary is up to date on shots, spayed, de-wormed, micro-chipped and fecal tested negative. She also recently got a dental cleaning. If you're interested in adopting, please fill out an application here: https://tinyurl.com/4u3tuy5c Due to the high volume of applications, our Adoption Coordinator will only contact the applicant that best meets the needs of the pet.

Story
Meet Knuckles – Your Velcro-Hearted Shadow and Cuddle Pro! 💚🐾 Knuckles is a 1 year old small-breed mix with a big personality and an even bigger heart. This fuzzy little lovebug is a certified cuddle connoisseur, and he’s on a mission to find his forever person to hug, adore, and follow around like the loyal best friend he was born to be. Affectionate and endearing, Knuckles loves to stand on his hind legs to give gentle hugs while gazing at you like you’re his entire world—because, to him, you are. This brave boy recently battled sickness and made a full, speedy recovery, charming every vet and staff member along the way. His resilience is matched only by his sweetness, and now that he's healthy, he's ready to bring joy to a loving home. Knuckles can be a little shy when meeting new people—especially men—but with some treats, a soft voice, and a gentle touch, he warms up quickly. Every day is a new adventure for him, and he’s still learning that loud or sudden noises aren’t scary—so patience and reassurance go a long way. Quirky? Oh yes. Here are some adorable Knuckles facts: He insists on non-tip bowls (otherwise he’ll flip them like a tiny, fuzzy waiter). He doesn’t like peanut butter—nope, not even the fancy kind. Every treat and toy gets proudly marched back to his bed. He’s tidy and adorable! Once Knuckles bonds with you, you’ve got a loyal companion for life. He’s not just a dog; he’s your shadow, your snuggle buddy, and your heart on four legs. If you're looking for a lifelong best friend who’ll stick by you through thick and thin (and probably sleep with his head on your feet), Knuckles is ready to choose you. The adoption fee for Knuckles is $400. This donation helps to cover veterinary expenses including spay/neuter, microchip and vaccinations. Wish Upon a Rescue is a 501(c)3 non-profit, foster based animal rescue. If you would like to meet Knuckles please complete our adoption questionnaire at www.wishuponarescue.org/adopt. We will review your responses and be in contact to schedule a meet and greet at a time and place convenient for your family and our team member.

Story
*** To alleviate the need to bring an animal into the shelter environment, The Anti-Cruelty Society has the Home-to-Home Shelter Bypass service to help people find new accommodations for their pets privately. These animals are not located in any of the Society`s physical locations. If you are interested in adopting this animal, please do NOT click the Adopt Me button and instead reach out to the current owner directly via the email provided in the profile. As this is a Home-to-Home animal you are not required to fill out an Anti-Cruelty Society adoption application form. *** My dog`s name is Winston, and he is a maltipoo who is 10 yrs old going to be 11 this year. Hes been around a cat previously for 5 years and they got along well. He hasn’t been around a lot of toddlers. He needs a lot of attention and would do well with someone who is retired or works from home. Both of my kids are grown and moved out and I’m taking care of my mother who has Alzheimer’s by myself now. I don’t have the bandwidth to give him the attention he deserves and that’s why I’m looking for a home for him. He’s only 7 pounds and a lot of fluff so he can run in between your legs so not good for someone who can trip easily. He is a lap dog and is perfectly content just cuddling with someone. He does have a high-pitched bark and loves to talk when he’s excited. He is neutered and up to date with all shots. He did have bladder stones and he’s on a vet px diet and is due for his 4-month checkup to see if he has any left which I’m taking him to in another week. He just had a checkup, and his teeth cleaned end of last year. He’s in good health and very friendly. He doesn’t like to be on his back, so you have to hold him like a football but loves to be in someone’s arms. He is crate trained, and pee pad trained. I keep a pad in the bathroom for him in case, but he will go outside if you take him out regularly and as soon as he’s done eating. For adoption information, please email momi1600@gmail.com.

Story
Rita is an adorable, friendly, spunky little 7lb bundle of joy! She gets along with anyone and everyone. She loves to give kisses and be as close to her humans as possible at all times! She is pretty high energy and would do best with a young, active owner commited to getting this girl exercise and socialization. She would not do well at home alone all day while her owner is at work, for example. Rita is located in Houston TX and will not be transported until she is adopted. The adopter is responsible for paying for her transport in addition to the adoption fee. The adoption fee is $850. The first step is to fill out an application at www.recycleddogsrescue.org No inquiries will be responded to - only completed applications.

Story
Eloise, or Weezy, as we call her, is the epitome of resilience. She was a street stray here in Chicago that somehow evaded capture for over a month. When she came to us, she was filthy, matted, and covered in fleas with teeth literally rotting out of her mouth. Despite her condition and how long she had been fending for herself, she was immediately trusting and gentle. She has had a dental procedure to remove almost all of her remaining teeth, and she is thriving. She loves food, she loves cuddles, and she loves human and dog friends alike. Now that her teeth have been managed, she does need a primarily soft diet, but she's not picky at all! She has a clean bill of health for a 12(ish) year old lady and a lot of love left to give. Weezy is low maintenance, non-shedding, and sweet as can be. Eloise's adoption fee covers her up-to-date vaccines and preventatives, up-to-date heartworm testing (negative!), spay, and microchip. If you are interested in being considered for Eloise and live within 3 hours of Chicago, please apply directly. If you have any questions before applying please email adopt@chicagorescueauthority.org.
