Story
Carmen is a very sweet and friendly, five-year-old, 55-pound female terrier-mix with a cropped tail looking for a loving guardian. Carmen is full of nub wiggles and kisses for everyone she meets.

She knows the command sit and takes treats very gently from your fingers. Carmen is crate-trained and appears to be housebroken. She was rescued by Lucky Dog Rescue from a Southern Illinois shelter and brought to Chicago to find a loving.

Story
Unfortunately Happy does not look happy in her pictures! But in person, she is a happy dog and loves people. She's good with most other friendly dogs and adores going out for walks. She also is happy to show you that she knows how to sit and give paw on command. She is a little too interested in small animals, so no kitties or rabbits for siblings. We put a bell on her collar when she goes out into the yard to warn any little critters. She's a very affectionate girl looking for her own family. Please email Melia at melia88@comcast.net for an adoption application. Her adoption fee is $200.

Story
LAILA Available for Local Foster only FAST FACTSFemale, Bull Terrier, 30 pounds, 1 year oldSweet, Loving, Cuddly, Playful, HappyHigh EnergyPeople FriendlySelectively Dog FriendlyPotty TrainedCrate Trained Greetings from Layla the Lovebug. My brother Oriel and I were surrendered to CARE by our previous owners. Being left at the shelter was a traumatic experience, but I’ve settled into my new surroundings and have wiggled my way into the hearts of the staff and volunteers. They tell me I’m an eternal puppy who makes friends with everyone (a bit hesitant with certain men) and never runs out of energy. I crave attention and affection, especially pets on my head, chin, and neck. I like being as close as possible to people and am at my calmest when being shown love. Walks—I call them “sniffs”—are another favorite activity. My walking style is erratic, as I like to move from side-to-side to make sure I don’t miss anything. So I’ll definitely need you to work with me on my leash manners. I’m always up for a game of chase the ball or squeaky and am really good about returning my toys and dropping them at your feet—anything to keep you playing with me. I don’t seem to have had any obedience training and am just starting to learn some basic commands. But please keep teaching me, because I’m very treat-motivated and will work for rewards. I’m potty trained and tolerate my crate, although I do bark when left alone.  So…are you looking for a loving shadow who will keep you company through thick and thin and make you smile even when you’re feeling down? Then your search is over. Please fill out an adoption application right away and come and meet me. I’ll be waiting for you! I have been spayed and microchipped and have had a full veterinary checkup and vaccines. My adoption fee is $325.00. For more information or if you would like to meet me, please fill out an adoption survey at carenorthshore.org/dog-adoption-survey Love & licks,LailaApril 24, 2024, 9:24 pm
