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 $300(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Meet Juniper, the sweetest little clown you'll ever meet! ❤️ Juniper has a tiny confession to make. Apparently, the word Akita makes some people nervous. So she's decided to take matters into her own paws, put on a clown disguise, and hope nobody notices. 😂 But here's the thing about Juniper… she's basically a Golden Retriever trapped in an Akita's body! ❤️ This beautiful girl is approximately 12 months old, and I genuinely cannot say enough wonderful things about her. Juniper is one of the sweetest, cuddliest, most affectionate dogs you could ever meet. She doesn't just enjoy being petted. She LEANS her entire body into you, soaking up every ounce of love you're willing to give her. If she could crawl right into your lap and stay there forever, I think she would! She absolutely LOVES other dogs and would be thrilled to have a playful canine sibling. She's fun, goofy, incredibly smart, and has the kind of personality that makes you smile just being around her. And guess what? She's even passed her cat test! 🐱❤️ What breaks my heart is that people sometimes hear the word Akita and immediately lose interest. They haven't met her, watched her play, or experienced one of her famous full-body cuddles. They're judging this incredible girl by a breed label instead of the dog standing right in front of them. Juniper is so much more than whatever breeds might be in her DNA. She's a cuddle bug. A playmate. A goofy little sweetheart. A girl who wants nothing more than to love and be loved. And somewhere out there is a family who is going to meet her and wonder how on earth they got so lucky. ❤️ Interested in meeting Juniper or applying to adopt her? Email us @ ruffners1880@gmail.com The adoption fee is $275. Adoption fee includes: - microchip - spay/neuter - age appropriate vaccinations: Bordetella, DH(L)PP, rabies - heartworm preventive and flea/tick preventive - deworming

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!

Story
Meet Timber..... While Timber could be mistaken for a small wolf, he’s a Husky-Shepherd Mix. A a very smart and handsome boy!! Timber enjoys playing and running; he’d prefer to run and play with a human companion rather than another dog. He LOVES people and is good with most everyone. Timber’s estimated date of birth is July 4 2021. He’s about 60 lbs. of energy! An ideal home for Timber, and one in which he’d thrive and his family would forever enjoy his companionship is one experienced with the Husky (or a similar) breed, has the time to commit to a young large-breed energetic boy, and a willingness to set boundaries and guidelines to ensure Timber evolves into a perfect family member. Timber is a quick learner and is sure to make progress toward his behavior goals pretty quickly! Timber would love a secure, fenced yard, and possibly being an only dog so he can receive ALL the attention!! Timber is fully vetted, up-to-date on vaccinations, heartworm negative and on year-round heartworm prevention, neutered and microchipped. If you might be interested in adding this handsome boy to your family please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or 847-852-0895

Story
Terra is a very sweet, cute Husky Mix, possibly Husky-Shepherd. Her estimated date of birth is July 4, 2021; at the time of this post, she is about 1 ½ years old. She weighs about 50 lbs. Terra is typical Husky through-and-through. She is active, somewhat high-strung, and loves being outside. When she is by herself, she is overall well-behaved…given she’s a younger Husky. She can get carried away and become obnoxious when engaging with other dogs. As such, she is most likely to do best being an only dog. She is not a dog-park dog. While playful and energetic, Terra is also very affectionate. She enjoys people and does pretty well when meeting people she does not know. As is the case with all young, larger dogs, Terra would greatly benefit from obedience training which can also be a bonding experience with her new family. No doubt, Terra has the potential to evolve into the perfect pup, but is looking for that family willing to commit to her and provide her the forever home she deserves. Terra is fully vetted, up to date on all vaccinations, spayed & microchipped and on year-round heartworm prevention. To learn how you can add this cute young girl to your family, please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or 847-852-0895. BAARK is located in the Chicago area and adopt our dogs only local to the area.
