Story
Keyoko is the sweetest girl you will ever meet. She had been living a good life until her owner died and she - and her buddy Zeus - suddenly found themselves at the shelter with nowhere to go. One of our wonderful fosters has agreed to take both of them in until we can find their new forever homes. In addition, a kind supporter has sponsored part of her adoption fee to help her get settled soon. At 8yrs old, Keyoko is still playful and loves to cuddle with her people. She is looking for a safe and loving home. If you think that could be yours, click on the big black button marked "Ask About Me" and we will send you an application. This dog is being fostered in TN but included in your adoption fee is transport to a location near you by Rescue Riders Pet Transport, the most animal-friendly transport on the road.

Story
Dakota is a handsome name, kind of a "rugged" kind of name, right?? I am kind of a REFINED RUGGED kind of boy! NOT!! I am a snuggle bug looking for tummy scratches....I willl MELT for one!! Here is what one of our amazing fosters have to say about Dakota...."Super freaking sweet, loves loves belly rubs, is very strong when you walk him but listens well. VERY treat motivated and knows sit down paw and i just taught him roll over yesterday but its a work in progress 😝. Super playful, he will pounce around you and then roll over for belly rubs and absolutely melts for the belly rubs and kisses" I love playing and running with my doggy friends, however, I can lay at your feet very sweetly to beg for your attention. I am kind of like a "reverse" planter as well. I mean, you plant it and i will un-plant it for you :D I won't do it often, just when I want your attention and I am outside alone. So see?? you have great control over that urge! So I am a food and toy lover too, I eat out of a slow feeder bowl because wolfing down my food is not an option! I am learning all things toys and am actually learning how to bring the ball BACK after you throw it. I am a smart and very sweet boy. I do absolutely have a prey drive so no kitties for small furry mammals around me please. I am fully potty trained and great in a crate. Now i just need you to adopt me to complete my circle of life. Now, before you go all "Lion King" on me, just know that I will be your bestest buddy forever!! I am two VERY loyal breeds and once I know you are my family, you will have my unending love :) Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Limburger is currently living at Chicago Canine Rescue! Please head over to our website (chicagocaninerescue.org) to fill out a quick adoption survey to learn more about the process and schedule an intro.Up to date on vaccines: Yes! (for their age)Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalizedHousebroken: Still learning!Crate trained: Working on it!Leash walking: Does well.Dog social: Does well!Cat social: UnknownKid friendly: Unknown, but we suspect he`d do well with respectful kids, given his young ageLimburger likes:- Training time (he already knows `sit` and `leave it`!)- High-value treats (they work like magic to get his focus)- Showing off his unique chocolate coat and speckled chest frecklesLimburger likes:- Exploring the neighborhood on nice, steady walks- Getting your full attention (he loves to stay close!)- Investigating interesting smells along the sidewalkLimburger is an absolute delight on the leash! He is a calm, steady walker who completely ignores passing people and other dogs. He does have two funny quirks to look out for: he loves to inspect and try to pick up sidewalk trash, so his handler needs to keep an eye out for street debris. Also, if you stop moving, he likes to jump up on you for some quick attention, but he immediately stops and gets right back to business as soon as you keep walking.Stay tuned for details as we get to know them better! Limburger`s adoption fee is $350, and this wonderful boy is so excited to find a new best friend!

Aries

Shepherd (Unknown Type) Husky

Male, Young
Aurora, IL
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meet Aries, he's a handsome Shepherd/Husky mix. He's about 1-2 years old. When Aries came to Rover Rescue he was found to have a heart defect that will require medication for the rest of his life. Rover Rescue will pay for this medicine for whoever adopts him. Aries true to his breeds is active, lives to run and may even howl at times. I believe he has herding tendencies as he loves to nudge everything with his nose and chase feet. He loves people and can be very affectionate, he loves to be close to his favorite people. He loves toys and will chase a ball for as long as someone can continue throwing. Aries is currently going thru basic obedience class and doing well but he still likes to jump on us, that is something we're strongly working on. He is not destructive in the house and is housetrained, but he can get bored if alone long in the yard and will dig. He loves long walks and doing much better on pulling. Aries will do best in a adult home who can give him lots of play time. Also because of his herding tendencies other dogs get annoyed with him so he will do best as only dog to keep peace. Aries adoptive family will have an added bonus of a free 6-week obedience class at Elmhurst Animal Care Center. Aries has been neutered, updated on vaccines and microchipped. If you would be interested in meeting Aries or hearing more about him, please call Jody at 708 268 6965. His adoption fee will be waived. Adoption fee includes: - microchip - spay/neuter - age appropriate vaccinations: Bordetella, DH(L)PP, rabies - heartworm preventive & flea/tick preventive - deworming
