Story
Mally is a young, energetic pug with endless love to give. She came to us from a home environment where she was unfortunately being bullied a lot by the other dog in the household, and as a result she’s developed some pretty firm dog boundaries, so we’d prefer for her to go to a home where she can thrive as an only dog. She is crate trained, potty trained, and does excellent on a leash. She is an excellent car passenger, and while she can be a little nervous around strangers at first, she warms up very quickly. She has historically had some mild allergy problems in the spring where she gets a little redness between her toes, but a medicated leave on mousse has been very effective at managing that. You may have noticed that Mally only has one eye. Can’t get anything past you two-eye-havin’-folk, we know. Mally’s previous owners were unsure what happened to cause her to only have one eye as she was adopted to them after it went missing. That said, they did inform us that she’s very sensitive about the topic and there is an elaborate story about a fight with a bear that Mally definitely came out the victor from (sans an eye…) that she would prefer we keep consistent to help her keep up her tough outward appearance. Mally's adoption fee includes her spay, age appropriate vaccinations, heartworm negative, and microchip. She is available for adoption in or within 3 hours of Chicago. If you have any questions before applying please email adopt@chicagorescueauthority.org. Please note that we do not set up any meet and greets without an approved and matched application as we are not first come, first serve.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Gus – Your New Best Friend!  Gus is a lovable Pug mix with a heart as sweet as they come. Through no fault of his own, he found himself owner surrendered to a shelter, but he's ready to leave that chapter behind and find the forever family he deserves. Gus can be unsure of meeting new people at first, and may be a little shy and territorial. Once he knows you, he will be your best friend for life. He will welcome you with kisses, happy jumps, lots of tail wags.  When Gus was owner surrendered, we were told that he is potty trained and does know how to use a bell to alert when needing to use the bathroom. He is also not much of a barker, gets along great with dogs, rides well in a car, and walks well on leash.  Gus is neutered, 4DX negative, microchipped, current on all vaccinations, and protected with ProHeart 12 and Bravecto.  His adoption fee is $400. To apply to adopt Gus, visit www.adoggie4you.org. Gus is currently located in Texas but can be transported to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington (Kentucky), and locations along the East Coast for an additional $250 transport fee. Please note that transport is not available to Rhode Island or Massachusetts due to state regulations.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 7, 2026, 2:52 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Pedro, who smiles when greeting you. Pedro’s life changed through no fault of his own when his family was deported back to Mexico, leaving him in need of a new place to call home. It’s heartbreaking when circumstances beyond anyone’s control separate a family, and now this sweet boy is hoping for a second chance with a family who will love him forever. Pedro is a fun, happy, loving, and gentle boy who has so much affection to give. He loves sharing hugs and kisses with his people, lounging around and enjoying the simple things in life, or heading out for a nice walk. He isn’t an overly active guy, so he would be happy with a more relaxed lifestyle, but don’t let that fool you! Pedro still has a playful side and knows how to have a good time. He gets along well with other dogs. We are unsure how he is with cats. Potty training is also something that may need to recorrect on, as he came in unaltered and unsure of his marking in home.  Pedro is the kind of dog who would love to be part of your everyday life, whether that means joining you for a leisurely stroll, relaxing beside you on the couch, or giving you sweet hugs and kisses after a long day. He doesn’t ask for much, just a safe home, a loving family, and someone who will never give up on him. Pedro is neutered, 4DX tested (He is  heartworm positive right now, but has started treatment. He has been on antibiotics and going through the ProHeart 12 protocol approved by the American Heartworm Society. The good news is that with this treatment, he should test negative in about 8–10 months) , microchipped, and current on vaccines. He is also current on ProHeart 12 for heartworm prevention and Bravecto for flea and tick prevention. His adoption fee is $350. Pedro is currently in Texas but can travel to Washington, Portland, Oregon, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington, Kentucky, and locations along the East Coast. If transportation is needed, there is an additional $250 transport fee. Due to state regulations, dogs cannot travel to Rhode Island or Massachusetts.

Story
ALL SKYE WANTS FOR CHRISTMAS IS A FAMILY 💔🐾🎄 Skye has been waiting sonce October 2023 for a second chance…. Shes been waiting patiently this whole time for a forever home. This special girl needs to get out of the kennels. She’s been here WAY too long. Skye was abandoned by her owners in our parking lot as a very emaciated scared girl. Thats ok though we made sure to shower her with love and got her feeling MUCH better!!! Skye is a very good girl and tested well with other dogs! Unfortunately she does resource guard so if adopted out through us she would need to be the only pet in the house. If pulled by a rescue and placed with a foster who had experience with resource guarding, she could potentially live with another dog! If interested in helping this special girl please give us a call or send us a message! 708-754-2351 Clphadoption@gmail.com Available for adoption or rescue pull at County Line Pet Hospital !
