Story
ADOPT MAX Meet Max, a 7 month old, 12 pound neutered male Rat Terrier mix. He is a young, smart, and playful dog eager for a forever home. Max is a bit shy but incredibly curious and sweet. His loyalty knows no bounds. Max loves to cuddle after a long day of energetic play. Brave in spirit, Max thrives in a space where he can explore safely, so a fenced yard is essential for him; apartments are not suitable. Currently he is learning the ropes of house training. Max would make a perfect companion for anyone looking to add a bundle of joy and devotion to their life. Max’s adoption fee is $495. Max is up to date on shots, neutered, microchipped, fecal checked and current on heartworm and flea prevention.

We will make arrangements to meet with prospective adopters only after a submitted application has been reviewed & a phone conversation has taken place. ***Please note that we are a foster based group located in the southern suburbs of Chicago. ***

Story
Spanky is a 6-month-old rat terrier x corgi mix with a gentle heart and a resilient spirit, despite already experiencing more change than any puppy should. He is incredibly sweet, affectionate, and eager to connect, often leaning into you for comfort and reassurance. Spanky is still learning about the world and will need guidance, patience, and consistency as he continues to grow, but his loving nature makes him a wonderful companion in the making. He would thrive in a home ready to offer stability, structure, and commitment for life with someone who will show him that he is finally home for good.

Story
Zero is a terrier mix. He is small and very loving. He likes to jump up on your lap and get scratches. He also LOVES squeaker toys. He will run to chase them and bring them back, so he can do it again. He does have energy and would do well with a fenced in yard to play in and an active family. He loves to roam free and is not a fan of a kennel. He can be kenneled, but is a little grumpy at frist. If kenneling is a must, we recommend a heavy duty kennel for this little guy. But, if he has a home where he can roam, he would much prefer that. He was surrendered by his owner due to not being able to care for him anymore. He is up to date on vaccines, neutered and microchipped, but does take medication for seizures. His seizure medication is very effective. He does need check ups to make sure the medication is at the right dosage and we have been keeping an eye on that and Zero has been doing very well. He can be dog selective. Overall he does very well with other dogs, but he can get a little territorial over bones and toys (things that he thinks should be his alone - not uncommon for a dog to have this opinion). He just attended a shelter event with lots of people and other dogs and did great. If you are looking for a little love bug to join your pack, come and meet Zero!  ##1552908##
