Story
     This cutie-patootie is Miloe, a 8 year old, 12-15 pound, Shih Tzu mix with the most adorable underbite. Miloe is completely potty trained, crate trained, and a huge love bug! He loves to snuggle up with his people. He is easy-going with medium energy, not a high energy dog, but loves walks! In addition, he enjoys mild playing with other dogs, and would be great for kids 8 and older.       Because he has always had people home with him throughout the day, we are seeking adopters who can provide that for him. Miloe is crate trained and only uses it for comfort when he wants some “alone” time. He would love a fenced yard to run but will walk on a leash.       This dog has been examined by licensed veterinarians, provided inoculations, tested for parasites and other diseases, dewormed, neutered, and microchipped.  ADOPTION APPLICATIONS AVAILABLE BY REQUEST from acaringplace@comcast.netA Caring Place - All Breed Dog Rescue adopts throughout the Greater Chicagoland Area. All dogs and puppies live in foster homes, providing you as the adopter, with information on the animal's behaviors, needs, and requirements. We are always in search of fosters care providers. If you are one of those special people willing to open your heart and home to an animal in need and would like to receive information on how you can foster an animal, please contact us.     December 16, 2025, 4:52 pm

Story
Brandi is a precious little soul who came into our care from a situation where there were simply too many dogs and not enough resources to give them the love and attention they deserved, and while she’s only 4 weeks old right now, she is already showing what a gentle and sweet nature she has. Brandi is still with her mom here at the rescue and currently weaning, learning what it means to feel safe and cared for, and she will be ready to go to her forever home at the end of February. We truly believe Brandi is going to blossom into a wonderful companion in a loving, committed home – one that will guide her through puppyhood with patience, kindness, and consistency, and give her the lifelong family every dog deserves.

Story
Name : Roy Gender: Male Breed: Shih tzu mix Weight: 10lbs Age: 8 Dog Friendly: Yes Cat Friendly: Yes Kid Friendly: Yes Neutered: Yes Vaccinated: Yes Microchipped: Yes Heartworm: Negative Crate Trained: Yes Potty Trained: As long as he gets to go out regularly and consistently, he does well. Location: Roy is being fostered in Elburn, IL. No out of state applicants please. Roy is a little guy with a larger than life personality. It takes him a bit to warm up to people so his intros to new people usually consist of a lot of barking. If he’s given some space, he comes around to bring your friend pretty quickly. He’s a happy, funny guy, and his foster family enjoys him. If you’re interested in meeting Roy, please fill out an app at the link below. https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DHDN/Dog
