Story
Hi, I`m Ben, a rat terrier mix weighing in at about 10 lbs. Foster mom says I have a very mild personality. I`m pretty low energy but do enjoy playing with the other dogs in my foster home occasionally. My favorite way to spend time is watching the world from the back of the couch. I like to snuggle, but not all of the time. I do well in the crate but don`t need to be crated when foster mom leaves. If you`re looking for a low-key companion, I might be your guy!You can also watch for stories, pictures and videos about me on our Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/JrsPupsNStuffInc Ask to meet me today!!Adoption fee: $375All dogs/puppies have been fully vetted including spay/neuter, micro-chipping, worming, heartworm testing and preventative treatment, flea/tick preventative, and all required age appropriate vaccinations.

Story
Meet Chad, a fun-loving, medium-sized Rat Terrier mix with long legs and a goofy personality! Chad loves running around, playing, and going for walks. He would thrive in a home with a fenced yard and an active canine playmate. Chad tends to prefer women and does best with someone who is consistent, firm, and patient. He takes a little time to warm up, but once he feels comfortable, his snuggly side starts to come out. He generally does best with female dogs, although he can also be a good match with the right male dog. He isn't dominant and naturally adjusts to the energy of the dogs around him, which helps him fit nicely into a home with other dogs. Despite his playful side, Chad is a pretty quiet guy who rarely barks, whether he's hanging out in the house or relaxing in his crate. He does best in a calmer environment and has great house manners. He sticks to chewing his own toys and is fully potty trained and crate trained. Chad is almost 2 years old, neutered, up to date on vaccines, and receives monthly flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. He is not a match for a home with children under 13. Chad will do best with an adopter who understands and respects his boundaries while also giving him the activity, consistency, and patience he needs. In the right home, this goofy, playful guy will make a wonderful companion.

Story
ATTENTION, LADIES... Wakanda would like a word. Single? Married? Retired? Crazy dog lady? Doesn't matter. If you're kind, patient, and hand out treats, Wakanda is pretty sure you're wonderful. Gentlemen... he's going to need a little more convincing. Wakanda definitely plays favorites. If he decides you're one of his people, congratulations—you've just gained the world's most loyal 16-pound shadow. He'll happily follow you from room to room, snuggle under a blanket, and proudly carry around his beloved emotional support lamb like it's the most valuable possession on Earth. Strangers, however? They're currently on his "I'll need to investigate this further" list. As the self-appointed Neighborhood Watch Captain, Wakanda believes it's his civic duty to let everyone know when someone new arrives. His résumé includes: Carries his emotional support lamb everywhere Olympic-level blanket burrower Toy collector extraordinaire Treat enthusiast (bribery works) Walking buddy Professional snuggler Fiercely loyal best friend So why is he this way? Wakanda was one of more than 50 dogs rescued from the Wauconda hoarding case. He didn't grow up learning that people could be trusted or that the world was a safe place. Everything he knows about being a dog, he's learning now. And honestly? He's doing an amazing job. He's crate trained, potty trained with reminders, loves walks, adores women, and has discovered that blankets are one of life's greatest inventions. He just needs a family willing to keep helping him build confidence. His forever family should have: A quieter home with a securely fenced yard Older kids or adults Patience and consistency A commitment to continue working with a trainer to help him become more comfortable around strangers and new situations Every week Wakanda gets a little braver. Every week he trusts a little more. Every week he discovers something wonderful that most dogs have known all their lives. Now all he needs is someone willing to finish the journey with him. He didn't get to choose how his story began... but together, we can make sure it has the happy ending he deserves. If you're looking for a loyal companion with a huge heart, an emotional support lamb, and enough personality for three dogs, Wakanda is waiting to meet you. P.S. Ladies, you'll probably be his favorite by the end of your first date. Gentlemen... bring treats. Lots of treats.   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.   Follow us on Facebook for additional updates and sneak peeks of new adoptables!  https://www.facebook.com/reachrescue ##2460452##

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! If youre interested in one of our dogs or would like help finding the perfect match please submit an application at: https://forgoodrescue.net/dog-adoption/We will not discuss details regarding any particular dog if you have not yet applied to adopt.For Good Rescue is a 100% volunteer nonprofit organization.

Story
Arlo - young, Jack Russel Terrier, Woodstock IL Meet this incredible 7-month-old Jack Russell Terrier—a little survivor with the biggest heart! When he was just a baby, he suffered severe burns in a house fire. Despite everything he endured, this brave boy refused to let his past dim his joyful and loving spirit. He is a true fighter, but beneath that courageous exterior is an incredibly gentle, affectionate pup who adores people and absolutely loves spending time with other dogs. He enjoys playing with his canine friends, soaking up attention, and reminding everyone he meets that even the toughest journeys can lead to beautiful new beginnings. This special boy is searching for a forever family who will look beyond his scars and see what they truly represent: strength, resilience, and an extraordinary will to live and love. He has already overcome more than most dogs ever will—now he is ready for the happy, safe, and deeply loved life he deserves. To meet this amazing boy, please complete an application at tinypawssmalldogrescue.org or contact Sara at 224-600-2547.

My name is Bandit but my foster mom calls him Nugget is 11 lbs.  I love to play also but I am also very happy just sitting on your lap or next to you and observe.  I love giving kisses. My brother's name is Smokey but my foster mom calls me Scout (the one with white on the back of my neck), I weigh 11 lbs and I am very investigative.   As you can see we are small but can hold our own even with the big dogs. Our father was Mini Australian Shepherd and mom was a Jack Russell Terrier. We love to go for walks on the leash in the neighborhood to explore. We are between 4 and 5 months old. Smokey/Scout: I love to play and check things out!  I give kisses when you catch me.  I can also be a little bit sneaky, so if there is a big enough hole I am brave and will slip right through there to explore! Check us out, we would love to find our forever home! We are located in Gurnee IL. We are up to date on our vetting plus neuter set for Oct 23rd. Adoption fee is $ 600.   each with discount if you are interested in both. If you are interested in adopting please go to tinypawssmalldogrescue.org and fill out an adoption application.
