Story
Dusty is an adorable 3-year-old special needs Shih Tzu. He was abandoned in our lobby by his owner, without saying a word. He was so confused as to what was going on, but he slowly began to trust. Dusty was so heavily matted we could barely see him, but when the veterinarians shaved his fur, they noticed his left eye had glaucoma. His eye was removed and he is recovering in his foster home. Missing one eye has not slowed him down. He is very inquisitive of everything around him. This poor guy needs a stable and patient home where he can learn that people are good and he’s going to be taken care of forever.

Kaylee's loving owner has to go into assisted living and cannot bring her with. She needs an adopter by the end of February. Kaylee's owner been a client with our partner vet for a very long time and has always taken wonderful care of her dogs. Her heart is broken that she has to do this. Kaylee does have a history of a heart murmur, calcium oxylate crystal (on a preventive diet) and proteinuria (on daily med for this). She's a sweet girl who deserves to live the rest of her life out with a wonderful, loving family. We are looking for a family in the Chicago south suburbs who may be willing to visit Kaylee's surrendering mom.

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
Baby came into our care from a heartbreaking situation where a person had far too many dogs and could no longer provide for them, and despite such a rough start, she is already showing what a sweet and gentle little soul she is. Baby is still with her mom here at the rescue and currently weaning, soaking up the love and safety she never had before, and she will be ready to head to her forever home at the end of February. Baby has all the potential to grow into an incredible companion, and with a patient, nurturing family by her side, we know she will blossom into a happy, confident dog who finally gets to experience what it means to be truly loved.
