Story

At 11 years young, Rocky has officially earned his title as a professional couch companion, expert snuggler, and certified Good Boy! Rocky is a neutered, potty-trained, crate-trained Rat Terrier who is sweet, laid-back, and simply wants to love his person and be loved in return. He has a wonderfully calm nature and thrives in a peaceful environment with a person who enjoys having a loyal little shadow by their side. Rocky is very well house-trained and has never had an accident in the house. He has a great routine and will come to you when he needs to go outside. He LOVES going out and enjoys taking his time to investigate all those important neighborhood smells. His ideal walks aren't about rushing, they're about stopping to smell EVERYTHING! He's still working on his leash manners, but he responds beautifully to a calm voice and positive reinforcement. In fact, Rocky absolutely soaks up a good "Good Boy!" after a walk or when he does something right. Rocky loves most people and other dogs and has shown that he can handle unexpected situations calmly. When he encountered an aggressive dog while out walking, he simply redirected and did wonderfully. His foster has found that keeping things calm and low-key after walks and when returning home helps Rocky settle in nicely. And then there's Rocky's favorite place in the whole house… the couch. He is absolutely the King of the Couch and will happily wait there for his favorite head and back scratches. After a walk, there's nothing he enjoys more than having his head and back gently stroked. Rocky is also comfortable in a crate when needed, although he's so well behaved that his foster eventually gave him free run of the house. He would love a home where his person is around much of the time because, more than anything, Rocky wants to be wherever you are. Rocky's favorites: Walks & exploring Being with his person Head & back scratches Being King of the Couch Hearing what a good boy he is! Rocky's boundaries:Rocky doesn't enjoy having his stomach or underside touched, and he doesn't like being picked up. His forever family should respect these boundaries and let him enjoy affection in the ways he prefers. Rocky has so much love left to give. He's not looking for a busy, complicated life—he's looking for his person, a comfortable couch, leisurely walks, gentle affection, and a calm place to spend his golden years. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will happily follow you around the house and then save you a spot on the couch, Rocky might just be your perfect match. Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 11-3 pm at 372 Townline Road in Mundelein, IL 60060 to meet our adoptable animals in person.

Story

Meet Midge ! Don't let Midge's blue cloudy eyes fool you-this little lady may be mostly blind from cataracts, but she certainly doesn't let that slow her down! Midge is a 10-12 year old senior Rat Terrier (possibly with a little Chihuahua in the mix) who is absolutely adorable, affectionate, spunky, and surprisingly playful. She loves romping around with her small-dog friends, but her favorite place is probably curled up beside her people, snuggling close and taking a cozy nap. And this girl is SMART! Midge learned the steps inside and outside her foster home in just a couple of days. She knows her surroundings, confidently navigates her world, and has adapted beautifully to life without her vision. She's also completely house trained-she hasn't had a single accident in her foster home! When it's time to settle in her crate, Midge is perfectly content there, too. When Midge first came to us, she was shaved, covered in flea bites, and carrying more weight than was healthy for her at 14 pounds. But just look at her now! She has been working on getting to a healthier weight, her skin has healed beautifully, and her gorgeous white-and-black coat is growing back soft and pretty. Midge is proof that sometimes the dogs who have been through the most can still have the biggest zest for life. She doesn't feel sorry for herself, and she doesn't think of herself as "different." She just wants to be loved, have some fun, find a comfy spot to nap, and spend her days with her people and doggy friends. Please don't let Midge's blindness stop you from considering her. She doesn't let it stop her from doing anything-and she's ready to show her forever family just how amazing she is!
