Story
Here is what the foster has to say! “ We have fostered Santa Flash since he was returned to BTR through no fault of his own. He is ridiculously affectionate to family and to people he knows. He plays hard, and he sleeps harder. He learns quickly and adjusts to new routines (like being on vaction) easily. He is house trained crate trained (see below for details) sleeps through the night dog friendly (see below for details) walks nicely on a leash rides nicely in the car treat motivated We put him in the crate for a few hours during the day, even when we’re home. He was crated while his original adopter worked, and we have continued that routine so he is used to being crated. He also sleeps in his crate at night. He would be fine sleeping in our room, but since we often have the 4 family dogs in our room, he’s in his crate. He definitely sees his crate as a safe space, and often goes there on his own. We have traveled with him, and having his crate with us made it easy for him to adjust to new environments. When we’re not in the home, he is always crated—he will pick up pencils and socks. He likes other dogs, but not all other dogs like him. Of our family dogs, 2 like him a lot, and the other 2 really don’t. When we were on vacation, he was boarded with a trainer, and he got along fine with her dogs. He is shy of strangers, so slow introductions are important. We have a routine when new people come over, which works really well. Sometimes, if a visit is going to be quick or it’s a worker, we just have him go in his crate, and he’s always content there. If you’re looking for a dog to go to brewpubs with and you have lots of company frequently, he’s not the right dog for you. But if you are willing to take things at his pace, he will be very loving with friends. Although he likes children, he startles easily, so he is not a good fit for a home with small kids. He is not a barker most of the time, but he does like to look out the window, and occasionally will bark when people walk by. He will usually bark when people walk up to the house. He’s easy to please—he likes all toys, all dog friendly fruits and vegetables, nylabones, and ice cubes. Flash has so much love to give, and some lucky family is going to be lucky enough to receive it all.”

Story
Doug is a young, handsome adult neutered Pointer who came to us from a high-kill shelter downstate, where he was hoping for a second chance at finding a loving forever home.When Doug arrived, he was quite skinny, but with good food and care, he has filled out into a happy, healthy boy. This sweet, silly pup absolutely loves to point! He points at anything and everything — mice, raccoons, possums, and whatever else catches his eye.With his natural instincts and enthusiasm, Doug would be a wonderful candidate for field trial work. Whether hes showing off his pointing skills or just being his goofy self, Doug is sure to bring plenty of joy and laughter to his future family. Please contact Jan at 847-790-6458 for more information about Doug.

Story
Billie is an adorable young mix, thought to be a Pointer/Aussie/Lab mix. She’s about 44 lbs, a bit on the lean side currently. And estimated at 4 years old. Billie joined us from a very horrible neglectful situation. She along with eight other dogs was rescued from a trailer, after the owner of the trailer was taken to a mental health facility. All dogs were starved; two were starved to death. Billie was one of the survivors, but barely so. She was skin and bones when joining our rescue program….and a look of hopelessness filled her eyes. During the last several weeks that Billie has been in her BAARK foster home, she has made notable progress, gaining weight, looking better, feeling more confident, and showing us some pep in her step! She’s even starting to play with other dogs. An ideal home and family for Billie is one who can understand her past and give her the time and space she needs to continue to build her confidence, and blossom into a loving, playful girl that she deserves to be. Good nutrition is very important given her past. Billie obviously is good with other dogs but the preferred home for Billie would be as an only dog, or with another calm friendly dog. She’d love a secure fenced yard where she could run, play, and exercise. She is scared of quick movements at this time, so smaller children would likely be overwhelming to her; older children should be fine. If you would like to consider Billie for a member of your family, please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or 847-852-0895. Note that BAARK is located in the NW Suburbs of Chicago and adopts local to our area.

Story
With his unforgettable markings and a heart full of puppy love, this sweet boy is ready to find his forever family, meet Amos! This handsome possible Pointer/lab mix is impossible to miss, with a striking black coat, a sweet white triangle marking on the top of his head, and the cutest grey-freckled nose and matching grey-freckled paws...seriously, to die for!, Amos is more of a calm pup, regal in his mannerism and you can already tell he is going to be extremely smart. He doesn't just bounce first into the unknowns, he sits back and watches new territory and things as if you can see the wheels turning, deep thinking, before approaching new objects etc... We would call him intelligent and a deep thinker if we were giving him a label although he is a baby, and does have that puppy play energy he just isn't bounce off the walls and jump right into danger type puppy. He's calm, cool and collective.. :) Amos is young and will adjust quickly to a home with older kids, cats, and other dogs making him a wonderful fit for a bus you have a history of having dogs around your children and a vet reference. p.s this has nothing to do with Amos, he is a baby and of no danger to anything or anyone right now however people with babies and real small children tend to have higher return rates and we are not into trial adoptions especially those without past experience with pups and dogs. Breed is an educated guess based on appearance and characteristics.y household. Since Amos is still just a baby, he isnt potty or crate trained yet, but hes ready and willing to learn! With some patience and consistency, this smart pup is sure to pick things up quickly. The first step is completing our application. Once received, well review it to see if youre family is a match for this little one!
