Story
Wesley is currently in a foster home. If you would like to meet him, please start by visiting www.sccrescue.org and completing an application.Meet Wesley, a sweet senior Shih Tzu with a gentle spirit and a heart full of love. This affectionate “velcro dog” loves being near his people and will happily follow you from room to room just to keep you company. Wesley is completely house trained and will politely paw at you or scratch at the door when he needs to go outside. Though he’s partially blind and a little hard of hearing, he gets around well and approaches life with a trusting, easygoing attitude.Thought to be around 11 years old, Wesley has wonderful house manners and does not need a crate—he actually dislikes them—but he behaves very well when left alone. He’s happiest relaxing in a cozy bed on the floor, often with a favorite stuffed toy he likes to gently carry around and cuddle. He enjoys being outside, especially rolling in the grass on warmer days, and on walks he’s curious about the world (and the occasional squirrel!). He knows “sit,” loves his meals and snack times, and especially enjoys back, chin, and ear scratches.This loving boy gets along nicely with other dogs and may enjoy having a calm canine companion, as he likes to nap beside his foster siblings when his people are away. Wesley is friendly with everyone he meets and has a quiet nature, rarely barking except to remind you if dinner is taking too long. With his sweet personality and loyal heart, Wesley is simply looking for a peaceful home where he can stay close to his people and enjoy his golden years surrounded by love.We love our dogs. We want happy lives for all of them and are looking for the home that provides the best fit for each dog’s individual needs. Please understand that there may be multiple families interested in this dog. Also, please know that the breed mix listed is simply a guess. In most cases, we don’t know their background. We encourage you to base your decision on individual personality and pet qualities instead of relying on our guess. Please understand, we only adopt our animals out near the Chicagoland area. Questions? Email us at adoptions@sccrescue.org. Hope to see you become part of the SCCR family!

Story
Ebony and Ivory are a bonded pair looking for a forever home together.Ebony (14 lbs.) and Ivory (8 lbs.) were local strays. They were in terrible shape when found and horribly matted.Now that these sweet girls are safe with AHF, they`re looking and feeling so much better. Ivory loves to cuddle, and Ebony is more playful but loves cuddling too. They`re both very loving. We think Ivory is a maltese mix and Ebony may be a schnauzer/shih tzu mix.Both girls walk on leash. They do not get crated when their foster leaves the house and do fine confined to a large room. They get along with the other dogs in their foster home and have been friendly with kids they`ve met at adoption events. Ebony seems potty trained and Ivory is mostly; she`ll sometimes use potty pads if they`re out for other pups.If you have room in your heart and home for Ebony and Ivory, please fill out an application so you can meet them and learn more.Adoption fee is $360Email: dogs@almosthomefoundation.orgAlmost Home Foundation`s adoption requirements:(1) Be at least 21 years of age;(2) Have the consent of all adults living in the household;(3) Have approval from the residence owner;(4) Have valid ID with current address;(5) Be approved by Almost Home Foundation as a suitable adoptive home; and`(6) Live in the suburbs surrounding Schaumburg (Illinois Residents only)*** Please note that Almost Home Foundation accepts only cash, Zelle, or checks for adoption fees; we do not accept debit or credit cards. ***
