Story
Rocky Road is a fun-loving, one-year-old pup. He is a great cuddler and gets along well with the other dogs in the house—though at times he does like to let everyone know he’d prefer to be the boss. When meeting new people, Rocky may surprise you with his loud and enthusiastic behavior, but after a few minutes and some pets, he’s absolutely thrilled to be with you.  This sweet boy is close to—but not yet 100%—housebroken. Rocky Road does have some separation anxiety and isn’t a big fan of spending time in a crate, although it is impoving.  Due to this separation anxiety Rocky Road needs to be living in a single family home.   This sweet, adorable pup is looking for a loving home where he could snuggle up and get some love! 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. Follow us on Facebook for additional updates and sneak peeks of new dogs!  https://www.facebook.com/reachrescue ##2500245##

Hi, I`m Coltrane! I`m a little schnauzer mix who is ready to find my forever home. I`m currently in foster care, and my foster has a lot of good stuff to say about me:`Coltrane loves to play with other dogs. In fact, he seems to trust dogs more than people! He’s very cautious about getting close to people at first but eventually warms up to them. He is very gentle taking treats and food out of your hand, and he loves chewing toys like Nylabones. He probably should not live with small children because of his nervousness around people and his rough play style. He likes to chase squirrels, so should not live with cats or other small, free-roaming animals. He is housebroken, but he is still working on leash manners, play manners, and basic obedience skills. Coltrane has lots of energy and is very happy dog when he finally learns to trust you!` I sound like a pretty great pup! I do need to live with another dog, because I get very anxious around people. Other dogs help me feel more comfortable so that I can be brave. I`m only 1.5 years old, so my new dog friend should be playful, or else they might find me pretty annoying! I`d make a great playmate for a young adult who is energetic and confident! I`d also love to live in a house with a secure, fenced-in yard. I have a history as an escape artist, so I will still need to be supervised whenever I have my backyard time. I`d love to do more training with my new family so that I can bond with them more quickly! If you think you have the right home for me, apply today!Special Requirements: Must live with another dog, No cats, Children 12+
