Story
Prince is a great dog, I am just an inexperienced owner. He would love a home with a fenced yard to run freely, even if its not large. He is pad trained but prefers outdoor walks. He does NOT scratch or chew household items, furniture or shoes. But loves to tear through tissues from the trash! Lol. He does well with older children (7+ years of age) and small dogs, but is big dog aggressive. He comes with 2 home crates, 1 travel crate, 3 month supply of food, standard medications, toys and treats.

Story
I'm Cash's foster mom, and what can I say? Cash is right on the money! He's an eight pound bundle of joy. Cash is an easy going Maltese, who enjoys playing and hanging out with his two female terriers, and everyone he meets. He enjoys walking on his leash, riding in the car, and cuddling in a soft chair, with or without his foster mom. He is still working on his housebreaking. Cash is in a foster home, so he is not in the shelter during open adoption hours, so call first if you would like to set up a time to meet him. I'm sure you will love him as much as I do.

Story
Meet Louie, a sweet 5-year-old Maltese x Pomeranian mix who has found himself at our door after his guardian could no longer care for him. This little guy is understandably scared and in need of a family that can offer him the comfort, love, and patience he deserves. Louie’s tiny frame and big brown eyes are sure to melt your heart, and with a gentle approach, he’ll blossom into the loyal companion every family dreams of. He’s okay with other small dogs and would love to have a furry friend or two to show him the ropes. If you have a quiet home and a kind spirit, Louie could be the perfect fit for your family.

Story
Simon is A Puppy Born In A Puppy Mill. Thankfully, the breeder didn't have use for him giving Simon a chance out of the mill. We took him and now he is free to find his forever committed family. Simon is a very happy active puppy. He is high energy and a vocal fellow if he isn't getting what he wants! He will do best in a home, not an apartment or condo setting. Simon is happy to have a companion dog to play with. He is fine with cats and all people. Simon needs to learn house manners. He and his family would also benefit from a puppy training class. Like all puppies he will need structure and a patient loving home. We recommend training for all puppies not only to give the puppy learning skill. But you and your puppy/dog will create a stronger bond just for having gone to training. Simon is fully vetted, He has been neutered, has received age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, Subsequent vaccines are at the expense of his adopter, His adoption donation is $1200.00. He is on the hunt for his own completely committed family, Little Dogs can live to be 20+ years old so he wants to be sure his family is all in 100% for better or for worse! IF INTERESTED IN A PUPPY (UNDER 12 MONTHS): YOU MUST HAVE A FLEXIBLE WORK SCHEDULE OR SOMEONE HOME ALL DAY. PUPPIES NEED TO BE LET OUT TO POTTY OFTEN, THEY NEED SOCIALIZATION AND BONDING AND NEED TRAINING (HOUSETRAINING AND BEHAVIORAL TRAINING). IF YOU WORK LONG HOURS, HAVE A BUSY SOCIAL SCHEDULE OR NOT FINANCIALLY SECURE THEN A PUPPY IS NOT FOR YOU. We adopt in the local Chicago metro area. We require home visits, If you would like to apply to be considered as an adoption candidate to adopt Simon please fill out an application for him adoption on our website at: https://www.rescuetailsanimalwelfare.org/info/aoption We are all volunteers with full time jobs. We try to get back to all applicants within 72 hours.
