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
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!

Afrodita (Tita) is a 2 year old girl. Loving and playful dog. She loves to run and play fetch. She will play fetch all day if she could. She is loyal to her sister Cleo. Cleo is the only dog she will tolerate, therefore she would be best alone or with her sister only. Tita is house trained and potty trained. Can't go on a walk without pulling. She needs a loving home where she can freely roam and run in a fenced yard. Sleeps through night, but will be alert if needed. Highly energetic dog.

Story
Sabrina is at our Everyday Adoption Center inside of PetSmart South Gate Market (1101 S Canal St.)! Stop by during open hours to meet them! This sweet pup is spayed and fully healthy! She is up to date on vaccines. She is also microchipped! 💧: Housebreaking: Reliably potty trained and lets you know when they need to go outside. 🚶: Leash walking - Walks nicely on a leash and enjoys exploring with their person. 🐶: Dog-friendly: Has lived with another dog and done great! She does love playtime, so she may come on too strong for some pups. 😺: Cat-friendly - Not sure, This pup hasn't met cats with us yet! Slow intro needed if adopted into a home with a cat. 🧒 Kid-friendly: Sabrina hasn't met kids, but with proper intros could do ok! Sabrina is a gorgeous girl, who loves people and dogs! We think she might be part owl. She likes to watch the action by sitting still turns her head full circle and her body often follows so that she ends up in a u-shape facing you (she's a very bendy girl). She loves laying on tile, so if you ever lose her, check your bathroom! Sabrina loves a good cuddle in bed, as well as playing ball and goofing off. She would be an awesome companion for anyone looking to stay entertained! This pet has not been DNA tested, we are unsure of their actual breed makeup, but these are the breeds we think they look like! 💰 Sabrina's adoption fee is $300, and this sweet pup can't wait to meet you! 🩷 Next steps: Email adopt@onetail.org with questions, or submit an application online and we'll be in touch to schedule a meeting: https://www.onetail.org/apply-to-adopt/. Our adoption application stays on file for one year and can apply to any dog in our program. Once the app is submitted you will receive an email within 48-72 hours.

Story
  Winnie  Lab/Pyrenees/Husky Mix  2 Years  80 lbs Basically Winnie=  the recipe for an extraordinary dog  you're right. Winnie is striking, soulful, and ready to trade her complicated past for the adventure-filled life she deserves. She's athletic and outdoorsy, happiest on a hike or exploring with her people, and she walks beautifully on leash. Every outing with her is a joy. She's dog-friendly, kid-friendly, deeply affectionate, and the kind of dog who quietly becomes the center of your world before you see it coming. She'll thrive with structure and ongoing training  not because she's difficult, but because she's smart and responds beautifully to guidance. Winnie needs a securely fenced yard, an active family, and a home without cats or small animals. Give her your commitment, and she'll give you everything she has. Trust us  that's a lot.
