Story
Sugar is a 9 year old (4th of July baby) female in great health. She is spayed, microchipped and current with her immunizations. She is house broken and crate trained. I have a crate and new bedding that comes with her plus other supplies. She prefers the soft loaf style food and treats. She loves attention in belly rubs and sitting in the lap of her caregiver. She’s very affectionate. Sugar enjoys going for walks and sitting outdoors enjoying a nice breeze. She doesn’t like fireworks, cats, or flying insects. She is my heart ❤️ The ONLY reason that I am parting from her is that I am retiring and moving into senior housing where I am not allowed to have a pet. I’m broken but it would mean so much to me to know that she is going to a great home. No fee is worth the value that she brings to any home. Thank you

***In order to alleviate the need to bring an animal into the shelter environment, The Anti-Cruelty Society has the Home-to-Home Shelter Bypass service to help people find new accommodations for their pets privately. These animals are not located in any of the Society's physical locations. If you are interested in adopting this animal, please do NOT click the Adopt Me button and instead reach out to the current owner directly via the email provided in the profile. As this is a Home-to-Home animal you are not required to fill out an Anti-Cruelty Society adoption application form. ***Buddie is a sweet and affectionate Shih Tzu looking for a loving new home. She enjoys cuddles, short walks, and is great with kids and other calm pets. Buddie is up to date on vaccinations and has a calm temperament. She is shy but loving to new people and listens well, she loves to sleep comfy on pillows or bedding. She will do well with someone who has time to be with her without her being alone throughout the day. She can be easily housetrained when she gets familiar with her environment. Buddie would thrive in a home where she receives plenty of love and attention. A family who can provide regular grooming and moderate exercise would be ideal.Buddie's adoption fee is $300.Please reach out to ndelerme@yahoo.com for more information.

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
Alumni Super Sweet Senior, Mickey Seeking A Forever Home! Poor Mickey! Through no fault of his own he has had at least 4 homes! We found him in 2016 at a community free access shelter at the height of the canine flu! Not only was that a strike against bim but he had broken toes and was next in line to the euth room. We got him our in the nick of time. We covered his medical care. He improved, and healed and landed a lovely new Mom. Sadly Coved him and his mom passed. The family sent Mickey to live with a family friend that adored him. Sadly, his new Mom fell ill and needed to relinquish him to us. No Micky is on the hunt for a forever family that won't let him down. Mickey is a very gentle boy that loves everyone. He is pretty quiet, happy to take long naps in between wandering around the yard, sitting on a deck or taking a walk. He is also happy to nap with you and the family cat! He is quiet and always hoping yummy food might drop his way. He gets along with everyone. He was pee pad trained which might be helpful. We estimate he is 14ish.. He is a healthy fella although has had some allergy issues in the past and recovered IVDD. Mickey is fully vetted, He has been neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and is heartworm negative, His adoption donation is $450.00. He is on the hunt for his own completely committed family, Little Dogs can live to be 25 years old so he wants to be sure al for better or for worse! We adopt in the local Chicago metro area. We require home visits, If you would like to apply to be considered as an adoption candidate to adopt Mickey please fill out an application for his adoption on our website at: https://www.rescuetailsanimalwelfare.org/info/adoption We are all volunteers with full time jobs.
