Story
Meet this beautiful bully named sugar. She is a loyal, playful, jiggly girl. Sugar was originally from a breeder. She has a beautiful build and is in great health, she finds herself currently looking for a new loan due to life changes in her previous owners path. Sugar was not socialized very well with other animals, but loves people very much. She would do great in a home as an only pet. Sugar likes people of all ages and lived with children. Where she grew up, she was a puppy and had lived with a dog that constantly went aggressively after her, and she eventually stood up for herself when she realized how big she had become. This led to inevitable Hazards with having both dogs together, especially around small children, and that is why she is currently being rehomed. The original older dog was the aggressor, but due to having lived through this experience, she is quite cautious around other dogs and really we believe with drive in a home without other pets..   Sugar is a good listener and has some basic training under her belt. She would be a great companion for long walks and would fill your heart with a lot of joy. Just spending quality time with her. If you’re looking for a lovely bully breed, she’s your girl.    Contact us to learn more by calling us at  847-338-3252  or emailing info@redemptionroadinc.org.

Story
Alright you caught me fair and square, I am the guy from Florida that used to be....a silly adventurous Shepherd boy! I am still that same guy. I found myself migrating north to a cooler climate in search of broader horizons. I am a boy of travel, wonder, excitement. I am also a boy that can relax, spend time with a lovely person, enjoys going for walks, enjoys playing with a ball or 2. I have spent the last year living in a kennel. The most generous and kind people have allowed me to stay here in the safety of this place while I find a home to call my own. Here I have learned how to behave, walk nicely on a leash and how to stay patient. I get out a bunch but I long for home.  I enjoy being around people. I am a strong dog and probably would push over some smaller humans but I enjoy everyones company. I prefer a home where I am the only pet. I havent had too many interactions with other animals but I feel very happy being independent. My manners are pretty good and I can stay focused on my human, even when other dogs try to distract me. I would love more than anything else in this world, to just be your very best friend. I promise I will crate at night, Ill potty only outside and Ill be a loyal true bud.  To ask about Frankie, please contact us directly by calling 847-338-3252 or emailing info@redemptionroadinc.org.

Story
A day in the life of a North Chicago Animal Control pup. My name is Nikko. I currently reside in the loving care of my hero, Damien. He is the animal warden at NCAC. I enjoy lounging on the couch, hanging out in my run, going for walks with volunteers, eating treats and basking in the sun like a beached whale! I am the ripe age of 10 years old. The world was not always so kind to me. I came to this place severely emaciated and with a large tumor on my face. I was in good spirits but nonetheless losing my faith in this life. My hero scooped me up and brought me to shelter. He nurtured me to health and learned I have some specifications when it come's to being handled. I don't trust too easily. In this new chapter of my life I am looking for a fresh start. I want to retire in a quiet home with one or 2 loving older humans. I am not very fond of children as I spent very little time around them and in my older years I prefer calmness and predictability. I am pretty low energy and dont require too much more than a coxy dog bed, a few walks and a yard would be nice for some sun tanning. I promise to be lazy, fat and not judge you personally. Consider taking me home and maybe we can fade into the sunshine together.  NO DOGS, NO CATS, NO KIDS   This boy has been through the ringer and is still waiting for destiny to serve him up a side of cozy and family. Consider adopting him and we have some training perks and boarding perks that come along with taking on a behavioral dog.
