Story
Griswald came from an abusive home and was rescued in early 2025. He changed homes 3 times before his first year. We've had Griswald for a year this June.He's made a lot of progress with medication and professional training. He's currently on Fluoxitine. We found that giving him trazadone when left at home is best.He gets along well with our 10 year old dog except when it comes to food and toys. He tends to resource guard and it has caused injuries.He's very easily excited and loves to wag his tail. Hes great at cuddling. Grizzy would do best outside of the city as he is reactive to sounds, pets walking by, mail deliveries etc. We are happy to make a drive out for a visit.He’s about 70lbs. Playing outside with the hose or a sprinkler is his favorite!We're hoping to find a home without kids and someone who has experience and availability to focus on training and rehabilitation. He is a great dog with amazing potential but we lack the resources and support for him to live his best life.

Story
Collin Is An Awesome Puppy Saved From The Puppy Mill. This handsome boy was destined for a sad life as a stud in a mill. Thankfully the breeder was discarding him and we got him and his siblings safely out and into our rescue. Despite his rough start, Collin is a touch shy but warms up pretty quickly. He will be an awesome member to any committed forever family. He will blossom with love and will do well in a home with another friendly respectful dog companion. 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. Collin is fully vetted, He has been neutered, 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.
