Story
Please Share … Chicago, IL – Adopt Hudson the American Bulldog/Hound-Mix Hudson is a three-year-old, 75-pound, male American Bulldog/Hound-mix with warm brown eyes looking for a loving guardian. Hudson takes treats gently from your fingers. He knows the commands sit and paw; and although he’s strong, walks well on a leash and loves his walks. He would be happy as the only dog in the home. He loves people of all ages and would love a family to dote on him. But, given an inch, Hudson takes a mile. He needs a strong leader who will continue to work on his training because he can be protective of those he loves. Found stray in Carpentersville, Illinois, Hudson landed at an animal control facility. He is now living in a foster home where he’s proven to be crate-trained and appears to be housebroken. To meet and possibly adopt Hudson, please contact Melia at melia88@comcast.net for an adoption application. His adoption fee of $200 benefits rescued dogs. He is healthy, neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, micro-chipped, heartworm-tested, and on monthly preventative. He is being fostered in Chicago.

Story
Romeo is a 60-pound, three-year-old (best guess), loyal and loving, white and tan Bulldog/Terrier-mix looking for a loving guardian. Found on Mother’s day 2024, emaciated and lethargic, tied to a post, a dog-loving good Samaritan untied him and brought him to the vet. He was not microchipped and had no tags or collar. After exhaustive diagnostics, it was found that Romeo had consumed a large child’s toy which had gotten lodged in his intestine. He has recovered from his abdominal surgery and is gaining weight. Romeo is nervous at first when meeting new people. He may bark, but once he knows you, you’re his best friend. It just takes time and patience. He’s looking for a quiet home in need of hunk of a dog with patient people willing to work on his training. He is good with other dogs and cats upon proper introduction. He can be a barker when left alone so no condos or apartments for this boy. Romeo is now very healthy, neutered, vaccinated for rabies and distemper, Bordetella and leptospiros, heartworm-tested and on monthly preventative, fecal-tested, and microchipped. His adoption fee of $175 benefits the Friends of Petraits Rescue. To meet and possibly adopt Romeo, please fill out an adoption application at https://friendsofpetraits.com/dog-adoption-application/ and follow up to meet him by e-mailing friendsofpetraits@gmail.com He is being fostered in Chicago.

FERN Available for Adoption or Foster Hi there! I'm Fern, and I've been waiting for over a year at C.A.R.E. to find my forever home. Could you be the one I've been looking for? I'll be honest with you - my life hasn't always been easy. I was found as a stray, and when I first came to the shelter, I had some challenges to overcome. But you know what? The amazing staff and volunteers at C.A.R.E. never gave up on me. They showered me with love, patience, and support, and now I'm proud to say I'm a total lap dog with my trusted humans! I'm a complex girl with a heart of gold. I prefer to be the star of the show, so I'm looking for a home where I can be the only pet. And if you have a yard, that would be just perfect for me to sunbathe and play. One of my favorite things to do is sit on the bus bench with my human and watch the world go by. It's so fascinating to see all the people and cars zip past! I'm also a big fan of car rides - feeling the wind in my fur is the best! Mind if we stop for a pup cup? Now, I'll admit I can be a bit shy at first. It takes me a while to warm up to new people, but please don't let that discourage you. Once I trust you, I'm your loyal companion for life. I'll stick by your side through thick and thin! Did I mention I'm super smart? I love playing with toys and figuring out new puzzles. And if you work from home, I'm the perfect office buddy. I'll happily sit on a chair next to you, keeping you company while you type away. So, what do you say? Are you ready for a devoted, intelligent, and loving companion? I promise to fill your days with cuddles, playtime, and unwavering loyalty. Come meet me at C.A.R.E., and let's see if we're a perfect match! I have been spayed and microchipped and have had a full veterinary checkup and vaccines. My adoption fee is $325. For more information or if you would like to meet me, please fill out a foster survey at carenorthshore.org/dog-foster-survey Love and licks,  Fern   Additional Details   Age: 2 years old   Breed: Mixed Breed Gender: Female, 57 lbs Personality: Playful, Affectionate, Smart, Goofy, Loyal, Knows Many Tricks!  October 13, 2024, 12:18 am

Story
Pax came to us from a multiple-dog family, so he is good with other dogs. He's also great with the children in his foster home. He's looking for a forever home . . . how about yours? He is food motivated and an enthusiastic student when training. He rides comfortably in a car, is house trained, crate trained and leash trained. He has been surrounded by a loving foster family but his public exposure has been limited. Obedience classes would be great once he's comfortable in a new environment. They would reinforce the training he's had, and would widen his world, showing him unknown humans are a source of positive attention and rewards.

Afina is a lovable pocket pittie who finds herself in a rescue shelter due to her owner's divorce. Despite the heartbreaking circumstances, she remains sweet and affectionate towards everyone she meets. However, she can also be quite stubborn at times, typical of her breed.

One of Afina's favorite activities is going on walks, where she can explore her surroundings. She is also a well-behaved dog who is house-broken, making her the perfect addition to any loving home. Despite her current situation, Afina has so much love to give and is eagerly waiting for a new forever home where she can be showered with the love and attention she deserves.This dog is sheltered in a foster based, nonprofit rescue. The Adoption Fee Includes Age-Appropriate Vaccinations (DA2PPV, Bordetella, Rabies), Deworming, Spay/Neuter, Microchip, Flea, Tick and Heartworm Treatment and Prevention, and Sheltering.

Hey, There-my name is Watson but my nickname should be Mr. Playful. I LOVE everyone I meet. Person-dog-cat- whatever…I’m going to follow you around and ask for all the pets! My favorite activities include chasing a ball around the backyard and going for walks with my foster dad. I’m one of the friendliest dogs in the rescue so I always get invited to all their fun events. I’m not only a master on a leash but also do great on car rides & in my kennel. I may be playful but I know how to read a room and when to chill. We asked my foster dad for a list of things about me- he did a pretty good job! He loves to share your pillow at night (or try to take it all) He chases his tail like a tornado. Gives you little love sniffs to the face. Rolls over on top of you for belly rubs. Like to lay against your legs while napping. Peeks his head in the shower and wants to lick your wet legs. Follows you everywhere. At ALL TIMES. He gives good hugs. I can’t think of one reason that would make you not fill an application out for me unless you hate fun.
