Story
Brad, Bradley is a distinguished gentlemen. I guess you have to be when your name is Bradley Wellington. I am a fourth generation Fraternity member of Zeta Beta Paw. Ask me how I got in? I had the fastest time in the water bowl chug. No but really, I didn't have the best start to life and here I am at 10 months old with an amazing foster mom who is teaching me the in's and out's of how to dog. Excessive butt sniffing is now at a limited. So far my foster mom has noted the following things about me: I am learning how to play with dogs! I didn't get much of it before so without my brother I was just a nervous boy. I now have mastered a little play bow, ok maybe not mastered but I am getting there. I can be adopted with or without another dog, but I would enjoy continuing to socialize and play. I love food. I am a little bit behind on the training commands deal but give me some food or treats and I promise I'll listen. I am confident in my kennel as it is where I sleep at night. I would enjoy an active family, we don't have to run marathons but some exercise and mental stimulation will keep me happy! I do enjoy a good nap and have an off switch with some good ol'balance. If you would like to be considered a forever home for Brad please apply directly here. If you have questions before being applying feel free to email adopt@chicagorescueauthority.org If you are viewing from adopt-a-pet to be considered a potential home for this dog please head to our website www.chicagorescueauthority.org and click on our adopt tab to apply directly!

Story
Amy's journey is nothing short of remarkable. She arrived at our rescue as an X-Puppymill Mom, along with three other standard poodles, in April 2023. On their first day, they stood frozen in the kitchen, huddled together, a poignant reminder of their past life at the mill. Three months later, they've made remarkable progress, learning how to embrace their new roles as cherished companions. However, it's essential to understand that when Amy transitions to her adoptive home, she may initially feel unsafe due to her shy nature. Amy has been gradually coming out of her shell, but she's still working on her potty skills. Therefore, her ideal home would be with someone who can provide frequent bathroom breaks every couple of hours. What's crucial is that Amy needs a patient and caring owner who is willing to let her set her own pace. In just a couple of months in her new home, we believe Amy will begin to feel safe and fully relax into the household routine. Amy is expected to thrive in a home with either a gentle, respectful dog or someone who is willing to spend a significant amount of time with her. This companionship will help her feel more secure as she continues to adjust to her new environment. She must also have a fenced-in and gated yard for her safety, given her shyer disposition. It's worth noting that once Amy does feel safe, she'll delight you with her charming poodle personality. She adores being pet, particularly on her head, and she'll happily sit next to you for hours, a testament to the affectionate and loving companion she's destined to become. Amy is 2-1/2 years old and fully vetted, She has been spayed, received age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and is heartworm negative, Subsequent vaccines are at the expense of her adopter Her adoption donation is $600.00. She is on the hunt for her own completely committed family, Dogs can live to be 20 years old so she wants to be sure her family is all in for better or for worse! 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 Amy please fill out an application for her adoption on our website at: https://www.rescuetailsanimalwelfare.org/info/adoption We are all volunteers with full-time jobs. We try to get back to all applicants within 72 hours. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to us at: RescueTailsAnimalWelfare@gmail.com. If you aren't looking to adopt but still would like to help Amy, please consider a donation for his food, housing, and veterinary care.
