Story
Nala was rescued from the euthanization list in Memphis. We pulled her the night before she was scheduled to be euthanized due to a minor skin condition. Thankfully, the condition was easily treated, and Nala has been thriving ever since. She has been in foster care the longest and has truly blossomed into an amazing puppy. Nala is incredibly sweet, loving, and affectionate. She loves other dogs, does great with kids, and is housebroken. She has a fun, playful personality and brings so much joy wherever she goes. Nala would thrive in a home with active parents and/or a big backyard where she can run and play to her heart’s content. Nala’s date of birth is August 27th. She is up to date on all vaccines, microchipped, and spayed (or neuter will be completed per contract). Her adoption fee is $300. From euthanization list to living her best life — now all she needs is her forever home. 🐾

Story
Aurora’s story started in Tennessee, where she and her siblings were on the euthanization list for the following morning. Forever Kuddles Fosters stepped in, pulled the entire litter, and brought them up to the Chicago area to give them a true second chance at life. Thanks to amazing fosters and lots of love, all of her siblings have found their forever homes — and Aurora is the last one still waiting. Aurora was born on September 8, 2025, making her around four months old. She is truly a special girl — thriving, happy, and full of life. She has the best personality and absolutely loves everyone she meets. She is great with kids, great with other dogs, and has a very sweet, playful, fun-loving nature. She is housebroken, crate trained at night for sleeping, and doing wonderful with her routine. Aurora is up to date on all of her vaccines, including rabies, and she is microchipped. She will be spayed at the appropriate time per our adoption contract. Aurora has come so far from where she started, and now she is just waiting for her forever family to find her. She is ready to give all her love to the right home.
