Story
Adorable Akitas!!! Kilo, tan coat,  is a 6 year old male and Nala, white coat, is a 4 year old female. Would like to keep them together.  Both are up to date with vaccinations and are altered. They are both house trained and were crate trained, but no longer needed. They are good with both adults and kids, are very lovable and obedient and love to be outside, especially in cooler temperatures!   If you think they might be a fit for your home or have additional questions, please contact Gia at (312)646-8887.       Please visit www.magnificentmutts.org for the online dog application.

Story
CHANCE – have you ever seen a more handsome fella? Just a few things about this sweet guy. The vet believes that Chance is between 18mo - 2yrs old and weighs 59lbs. • He is heart worm negative and neutered. •He is super sweet and gentle - wants to cuddle and be near his person. •He is dog-friendly (the foster doesn’t have cats, so we are not certain if he’s cat-friendly) •He is people-friendly to everyone he has met. Foster does not have small children, but he has been fine around children on walks. Due to his size and youth, he might knock down small children, but he is not aggressive. •He is house broken. Even in the rain and snow he has let us know he needs to go out. •He is a little timid to new people at first, but warms up quickly. •He very rarely barks. •He has learned to sit, walk on a leash, and “wait” for his food bowl to be put down. •He is very food motivated, so can be easily trained with treat rewards. He is not reactive when eating. •He can be possessive over certain toys with a low, warning growl if another dog tries to take it from him. •He is not interested in fetching a ball, but loves chew toys and antlers. • He can be very active, but is also happy cuddled up with his person. •He would do great in a house with another dog, but would be fine as an only dog also. Once adopted Chance will travel via private transport (transport cost is $160.00) to a location closest to you.

Story
Meet Locke! This beautiful Akita is just as smart as he is loyal! He is eager to please and already knows sit, come, and wait. He is crate trained and will go to his crate on the command "crate". Locke loves to play with other canines both big and small! He is always the life of the party at doggy daycare. His other loves include walks, car rides, treats, toys, ear scratches, and zooming around the yard or other open spaces. He loves nothing more than going on adventures with his family. He dislikes sharing food and his bed and would rather eat and sleep without being bothered. Locke is a very special dog, not only because of his stunning good looks but also because of his love for his people. This big teddy bear is an absolute sweetheart when it comes to loving his family and will succeed best in a home with strong leadership and someone who knows how to establish boundaries. Are you ready to make sweet Locke a part of your family?

Story
Lilac is a lovely, friendly and very much husky acting Siberian Husky. This gal has had a litter of pups and enjoyed living with her babies. She is very dog friendly but should not be with tiny breeds. Lilac is a typical husky that loves to run, pull, play, and enjoys the great outdoors. She also is a people dog and enjoys being around her people. Lilac is not a dog that can be left unnattended in a yard, she is a great escape artist and will break out to find people to spend time with her.  Here at the rescue, we have been working on Lilac's recall, obedience and crate training. She is learning and doing very well. She definitely needs to go to a home that wants to spend time with her and is more than willing to continue her training.  Lilac loves kids and has lived with children of all ages and enjoys being around them. Lilac cannot be with cats due to prey drive or small pets, she is great with medium to larger dogs and can very easily live with a housemate.  Call us at 847-338-3252 * Email us at : Info@redemptionroadinc.org * Follow us on Instagram:Redemptionroadinc * Facebook: Redemption Road Rescue Rehab Inc.
