Story
Good morning miss Max! You smile though your eyes have seen some hard times. You trust though your past should say otherwise. This darling girl has not yet in her life found a soft place to land. She is still trying to make her way in this life that shows little mercy. Max find herself now at the Mchenry Animal Control, waiting her turn to leave with a happy beginning or her turn to potentially be put down for space. Max came from an unstable environment, and her previous owners are actually facing criminal charges for a variety of reasons. Where is her justice, her peace? That only arrives for Max when she can walk out of animal control and into the home of a loving family. This girl is sweet, loving, playful, cheerful despite it all, she enjoys humans very much. At this time Max is not showing signs of being the most dog friendly and after months of being in animal control she is less tolerant of those interactions. She was living with her sister for a while and they got along until the time at animal control became drawn out. We, being a training-based rescue will sponsor free training through our professional trainers to any adopter that will take her home. Max has a great opportunity to learn under a professional in the home of someone hat wants the commitment to this girl. The training will be in your home as well. All custom to her needs and her tools will be provide free of charge.  Max is a strong girl and still learning some manners, so we suggest a home with older children. She can learn to socialize better with animals in a calmer environment but we do suggest at this time she be an only pet. If you are interested, please reach out this girl needs you! Contact us today to meet this remarkable dog by calling us at 847-338-3252 or emailing info@redemptionroadinc.org.   _____     See what's new with our rescue including updates on our animals and upcoming events:    https://lnk.bio/redemptionroadinc Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/R4inc/ Instagram: @redemptionroadinc Our trainer's Instagram:  @fullcircledogtrainer March 7, 2026, 7:33 pm

Story
Meet Cobain! At just over two years old and around 70 pounds, this handsome hunk is smart, mischievous, playful, and loving—a true toddler in canine form. Cobain came to us as a rough-around-the-edges pup with zero manners and zero direction. But with time, training, and consistency, he has transformed into an incredible companion. He’s now housebroken, crate-trained, a leash-walking all-star, and continues to learn new things every day. This boy greets people happily, though he’s still working on keeping all four paws on the ground. Cobain can also be a bit of a roughhouser during playtime, so he’s best suited for a home with older, dog-savvy kids who can handle his goofy puppy antics. Outside the home, Cobain is an adventure dog at heart. He loves to explore and would make an amazing hiking or camping buddy. Cobain is dog-friendly, but like many pups, he can become scared or overwhelmed in big groups. One-on-one, however, he shines—especially with slow introductions. He plays well with other dogs (especially females) and would thrive in a home with a laid-back canine companion and a fenced-in yard where they can romp and chase each other.  If you think Cobain might be the perfect addition to your family, reach out to schedule a private meet & greet with him today! To ask about Cobain, please contact us directly by calling 847-338-3252 or email info@redemptionroadinc.org.
