Story
Monty is an 80 lb American bulldog. He was surrendered by his owner along with a group of chihuahuas. Monty is a big gentle giant who is about 4 years old. He is housebroken and crate trained. He has gotten along with all the dogs he has met. Monty wants to play with his foster siblings but only one will play with him. Just like any bulldog, Monty can be stubborn. He is a big chewer so lots of bones around the house are a must. If he does not have any bones within his reach he will go for whatever he can get his mouth around and that looks tasty. He has moved my shoes from room to room but not chewed on them. Monty does love to carry around a stuffed animal or two. Unfortunately, the ones he has carried around he has taken their ears off. Monty loves his walks and sniffs around the neighborhood. When going on a car ride, he likes to hang one paw and his head out the window and let the wind take his jowls to flap. Monty is neutered, up to date on his immunizations and microchipped. HIs adoption fee is $225 . If you would like to meet this dog please call Teri at 630-897-7454. The adoption fee is $225. Adoption fee includes: - microchip - spay/neuter - age appropriate vaccinations: Bordetella, DH(L)PP, rabies - heartworm preventive & flea/tick preventive - deworming

Story
Meet Queso, he's a 6 month bulldog of some sort, possibly even a little boxer as he likes to box the other dogs. He's a big puppy so most likely will be large when full grown. He currently weighs approximately 40 pounds. Queso has a cherry eye which is sometimes common in dogs, but it will be repaired by a Rover Rescue veterinarian prior to adoption. Otherwise, he has beautiful blue eyes. Queso is a fun-loving puppy, he's friendly and playful. He will need toys to keep him busy while he's learning as he will steal slippers and other items. He was a shelter favorite; they said how gentle and calm he was. Now that he's in a home he still is calm, but he does get excited like any other puppy. I think he will be just fine with children of most any age. Queso is doing very well on the housetraining. He may still have an accident but for the most part he's doing great. At night when I'm home he sleeps on a big dog bed not in a crate and sleeps all night without any accidents. If you think Queso sounds like a dog you would like and he would fit well in your family, please call Jody at 708 268-6965. Queso is neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. His adoption fee is $250. Adoption fee includes: - microchip - spay/neuter - age appropriate vaccinations: Bordetella, DH(L)PP, rabies - heartworm preventive & flea/tick preventive - deworming

Story
Mocha is 2 years old. She is an outdoors dog, loves the snow & loves the sun. She is so spunky and full of smiles. Absolutely a happy dog! she listens diligently to every command. Unfortunately she was bit by her sister and they have never been able to repair their relationship. She is fearful of other dogs and needs to be placed in a home where she is the Main baby. She is extremely loving to all people but can be shy when you first meet her. Once she warms up to you she will want to be by your side every loving moment. I wish I could keep mocha but I know the life she is living isn’t fair to her. To keep her separated from our other dogs just isn’t the life I know she could potentially have. She is so incredibly smart, Does not potty in the house, loves to play fetch and really is a big baby. She’s protective of the ones she loves but is very gentle.

Story
This unique looking boy is Remington - Remi for short - is a super sweet boy that just wants to be loved. He’s a 2-3 year old, 60 pound, Pit Bull mix that we saved from a municipal shelter where staff told us he was one of the best dogs there. Remi is now living in a foster home with a few other dogs and adults and doing well. They have found Remi to be a very docile boy who loves to be around people and play with other dogs. He’s very loyal to his person and knows how to relax in the home when instructed and calms easily. Remi isn’t overly active but he does get the zoomies in the yard every once in a while, but he’s not a big barker.  He is on his way to being close to perfect; Remi does have a few quirks that we are working on. He was malnourished when the shelter took him in so he eats too fast; to help him he needs a puzzle bowl to slow him down and he’s fed in his crate since there are other dogs in the home and he wants to eat their food too. Remi takes treats gently and is very food motivated to learn commands. He’s learned “sit”, “leave it”, and is working on “stay.”  Remi would do great in a home with kids older than 10 because of his size. Remi is almost completely housebroken. We are seeking an adoptive household with another playful dog similar in size to Remi because he needs the companionship and will continue to learn from them. He would also enjoy a fenced in yard to play in. Remi is a super sweet boy that just wants to be loved. This dog has been examined by a licensed veterinarian, provided inoculations, been tested for diseases, and been neutered and microchipped. ADOPTION APPLICATIONS are available by request from acaringplace@comcast.netA Caring Place - All Breed Dog Rescue adopts throughout the Greater Chicagoland Area. All dogs and puppies live in foster homes, providing you as the adopter, with information on the animal's behaviors, needs, and requirements. We are always in search of fosters care providers. If you are one of those special people willing to open your heart and home to an animal in need and would like to receive information on how you can foster an animal, please contact us.     May 31, 2023, 1:57 am

Story
Hi, my name is Chopper or Chop as my foster Mom calls me! I was an owner surrender who ended up at the very scary city shelter. I sat there waiting for my former person to come back to get me, but they never did. I was pretty skittish when I got to my foster home but now I am settling in nicely. My foster Mom says I am a real sweetheart! I think I am a lap dog and will fall asleep with my head in her lap any chance I can get. Because I had a pretty rough start, I would do best in a home without small children or other pets. What can I bring to a new family? Well, I am crate trained and potty trained and neutered and up to date on all my shots! I have lots of love to give and will greet you always with a wagging tail. What am I looking for in a new furever home? I would like lots of cuddles and a gentle hand to pet me, a person or people to play and walk with, and a soft place to lay my head at night. And someone who will do some training with me so I know the boundaries and can fit well into your home! If you would be interested in meeting me, please fill out a pre adoption application or send an email and my foster Mom will get back to you just as quick as she can! XOXOXO-Chop

Story
It's a pleasure to meet you, my name is Walter! I like to greet people the old fashioned way, a tip of the nose, a meeting of the eyes, and a formal introduction of who I am. I've always kind of been an old-soul, at least that's what people tell me, with my wrinkled fur and gentle eyes. As an older gentleman I tend to have a bit more patience than these young whippersnapper pups. You'll find me waddling around quite slowly but my tail still wagging none the less! I have been known to snap when nervous, but I have come so far and I just need a little time and patience. Cause I just so want to be your big goofy friend! I have a soft and squishy face to go along with my squishy personality! I am great with my people and great with other dogs too. I am shy at the very first but am on the fast track to love! At 7-years old there's really only one thing I care about ... TREATS ... just kidding, it's being close to others. Being close to others helps remind me that I am here and my story is still being written with infinite possibilities. Perhaps you and I could write the next chapter together? Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

Story
You might think it odd to be named after a military vehicle like a tank, but let me tell you ... I BLAST onto the scene! At 5-years old and an unwavering look in my eyes I have the energy and dedication to make it anywhere and do anything! I'm built and live this way because of how my life started off, not too great, as my previous owners tied me to a tree and never let me really LIVE! After I was rescued by my guardian angel things started looking up and I got stronger, faster, better, and happier! I got to experience the joys of playing with other dogs, being around people and just running around to my heart's content! My face always has a gleeful grin on it and my ears are always perked for the next adventure! I'd love to go on one with you specifically! Do you have what it takes to tame this Tank-Dog? Apply now!

Story
Tucker is a 10 year young male boxer who found his way up to Rover Rescue from a high kill shelter in southern Indiana. His family no longer wanted him and I am still trying to figure it out. Tucker is the perfect gentleman inside and outside the house. Tucker still has energy to romp and play in the yard but his favorite place is right next to his human. He has shown himself to be housebroken and crate trained. Because of his great manners in the house he is not crated any longer. He is not destructive and has gotten along with every dog he has met. Tucker is your typical boxer and is a velcro dog. He had a dental by our vet and had to have four teeth removed, but that has not stopped him from eating. Tucker is up to date on all of his immunizations, he is neutered and microchipped. If you would like to meet this dog please call Teri at 630-897-7454. The adoption fee is $150. Adoption fee includes: - microchip - spay/neuter - age appropriate vaccinations: Bordetella, DH(L)PP, rabies - heartworm preventive & flea/tick preventive - deworming

Story
Tobias is a 2 year old boxer/lab mix. He weighs 57 lbs. Tobias is neutered and housebroken. We adopted Tobias almost two years ago and he has been the sweetest dog an owner can have. Unfortunately, we are in need of a new home for him because his shedding is making our son’s asthma worse. He is friendly, active, and gets along with kids. He also goes potty outside and sleeps in his crate. He knows a few tricks such as sit, lay-down, high five, stay, bed, crate, and rollover is almost nailed. Toby LOVES attention, as well as tummy and head rubs. He does very well at the groomer and vet appointments, but can get a little too excited on walks and nervous on car rides. He likes big rope and hard chewing toys (no fluffy toys). Tobias is a great, obedient and healthy dog. He will be a great addition to any family. His adoption fee is $225. If you would like to meet Tobias, please call Teri at 630-897-7454. Adoption fee includes: - microchip - spay/neuter - age appropriate vaccinations: Bordetella, DH(L)PP, rabies - heartworm preventive & flea/tick preventive - deworming
