Story
Cheesecake is a young man that was surrendered to Mag Mutts from a breeding operation. This 'dish' is a little guy, born 2/20/2024 making him approximately 8 months old and weighing about 13lbs.   Cheesecake is a little shy at first, but warms up and loves attention. He is good with other dogs, and house training is in progress.  Because of his lack of experience with walking on a leash, a fenced yard would be preferred for his safety.  He has not been around small children, so kids in the home  should be 6+ years old and have the ability to understand that he will need extra time to warm up and that fast movements and loud noises may startle him.   We recommend obedience training for all pups and dogs!        **Breed or size (once fully grown) is a 'best guess' and is not guaranteed since they arrived into rescue without either parent. **Magnificent Mutts is an all foster home based rescue and meets are held by appointment with the entire family in attendance. Please ensure your current pets are up to date with vetting, have landlord/HOA approval and are prepared to take your new family member home at the adoption appointment.  Thank you for your interest!                                      If you are interested in adoption, please complete the "Application to Adopt" which can be accessed from this link: (       www.magnificentmutts.org )  No phone calls please, emails only. Adult dog adoption donations start at: $300 (cash only) Puppy adoption donations start at: $360 (cash only) Prices are subject to change, please contact for specific adoption donation.     Please visit www.magnificentmutts.org for the online dog application.

Story
Introducing BOGIE, a Bichon Frise & Shih Tzu cross breed who is just over a year old, weighing approximately 12 pounds. Bogie is a very sweet boy that was rescued from a puppy-mill breeder when he was “too old” to sell. While in foster care these past few months, Bogie has learned what love and kindness is and now seeks it out from his foster mom. Bogie does not have a mean bone in his body and really craves a gentle touch/pet because he finally feels safe. Bogie now follows his foster mom around, especially when outside in the yard, and feels safe enough to come when called. He has even started playing and having fun, doing the “zoomies” in the yard, and truly looking so happy. This past month Bogie has decided it's pretty comfy to lay on his foster mom’s stomach while she watches T.V.. His recovery from his horrible first year of life has been remarkable and we are so happy for him. Because Bogie can be skittish, he requires a calm household, securely fenced yard and another friendly dog in the home who will continue to mentor Bogie’s rehabilitation. He is approved for adult households. Bogie enjoys the companionship of other dogs but more importantly he gets his confidence from them, learning more typical dog behavior. Bogie has good home manners and is housebroken. He is such a great little dog whose future is so bright! This dog has been examined by a licensed veterinarian, provided vaccines, been dewormed, tested for diseases, neutered, and microchipped. Our online application is not functioning currently; therefore ADOPTION APPLICATIONS are available upon request from acaringplace@comcast.net.   We apologize for the inconvenience. A 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.     October 21, 2024, 12:16 am

Story
Meet Brian, a gorgeous brown and white Shih Tzu mix. This sweet and friendly boy is looking for a forever home after a challenging past, including being used for breeding and losing his home due to his guardians’ divorce. Brian is deeply bonded with his best friend, Annie, and it would be wonderful if they could find a loving home together. Despite his past, Brian remains incredibly affectionate and sociable, ready to bring joy and companionship to a new family.

Story
At only a year old, Annie has already been breeding. Now, at Famous Fido Rescue, she is leaving that all behind and has had her final litter. Her former guardians were unable to care for her after going through divorce, and so Annie landed in our care. She has an especially sweet and friendly disposition and is particularly bonded with a dog she was surrendered with named Brian. We would love if the two of them could find their forever home together.

Story
Chloe is as sweet as can be and absolutely loves people! At around 10 lbs, she’s the perfect little companion. However, Chloe does have some difficulty getting along with other animals, which is why her former family made the decision to surrender her. Chloe would thrive in a home where she can be the only animal. If you’re planning on having just one dog, Chloe is definitely worth meeting! She loves belly rubs, being cradled in a lap, and taking leisurely strolls.
