Story
Meet Mickey ‘SWIPE RIGHT’ to match on this handsome stud! He’s recently been neutered, so we can’t technically call him a stud anymore—but he is still stunning!. Mickey is a male, 3-year-old, 30-pound, mini–Pit Bull mix with a soft brindle coat, soulful eyes, and a playful personality that’s impossible not to love. Mickey came to New Start Dog Rescue after being found abandoned in a rural area of central Illinois, tied to a tree. He was severely underweight, dehydrated, and understandably scared. Thanks to the love and care of his foster family, he’s now healthy, at a normal weight, and his true personality is emerging. His past may have been difficult, but it certainly didn’t break his spirit. Today, Mickey is energetic, affectionate, goofy, and always ready for fun. There’s a good chance he spent much—or even all—of his life as a stray, but he’s quickly embraced the comforts of home. Soft blankets, regular meals, belly rubs, and toys are now some of his favorite things. In fact, he likes to gather every toy he can find and play with them all at once! Mickey is recently house-trained and is doing very well, though he’ll need continued consistency in his new home. He sleeps quietly in his crate at night, rides well in the car, and enjoys walks without pulling much. He’s even started jogging with his dog walker and absolutely loves it. He’s a smart boy who enjoys learning, so continued obedience training and socialization will help him become the best companion he can be. Mickey would thrive with an active family, familiar with the energy and enthusiasm of bully breeds. He’ll need a secure, above-ground fenced yard where he can safely run, explore, and burn off energy. He could do well with another dog in the house, especially one that’s slightly larger and confident enough to keep up with his playful personality. Because of his excitement level, we’d recommend a home with children ages 10 and older. He has not yet been tested with cats. Mickey has already overcome so much. Now all he needs is a family to give him the happy ending he deserves. If you think Mickey could be the perfect “match” for your family, we’d love to hear from you! Local adoptions only. We do not adopt out of the state of Illinois. Mickey is being fostered in a private home. Appointments to meet him will be set up for approved adopters only. His adoption fee is $300 which includes all age-appropriate vaccines. He is neutered, microchipped and Heartworm negative. He has also been kept on both flea/tick and heartworm preventatives, which must be continued. Please visit our website and fill out an application if you are interested. http://newstartdogrescue.org

Story
Meet Baguette — the fourth sibling in this bread-tastic bunch! This 8-month-old pit mix came from a home that didn`t give him much of a start in life, so he`s a bit under-socialized like the rest of his litter — but he`s got a big, friendly heart and loves other dogs.Right now, Baguette is under doctor`s orders: he`s healing up from a broken leg, and DCAS has him covered for treatment. That means his adopter needs to be ready for a season of limited activity — think cozy naps, gentle leash walks, and lots of couch cuddles while he mends. It`s the perfect excuse to bond slow and steady before working on his confidence once he`s back on all four paws.He`s sweet, social, and just wants someone patient enough to help him heal — inside and out. If you`re looking for a low-key recovery buddy who`ll turn into your favorite playmate, Baguette is ready to loaf around with you.Baguette weighs 34lbs and may gain more

Story
Meet Ciabatta — Pumpernickel`s sister and fellow bread-named work-in-progress! At 8 months old, this girl is soft on the inside, a little crusty around the edges (thanks to a previous home that didn`t teach her much), and 100% worth the effort.Ciabatta hasn`t quite figured out the whole `confident dog` thing yet, but she`s got the right foundation: she adores people, melts for affection, and gets along great with other dogs. She just needs someone patient enough to show her that the world isn`t so scary and that being a dog is actually the best gig around.Since she`s still figuring things out, she`s the perfect match for someone who wants to shape a great dog from the ground up — no bad habits to break, just good ones to build. Every bit of confidence she gains will be because of you.If you`re up for raising a shy pup into her happiest, waggiest self, Ciabatta is ready to rise to the occasion.Ciabatta weighs 25lbs, could gain more

Story
At 12 years young, Greg has officially graduated from `living life in the fast lane` to `living life exactly how he wants` — which is to say, unhurried. This gentle pit mix takes everything in stride, quite literally, with a leisurely gait and an even more leisurely outlook on life.Greg is polite, sweet, and easygoing with other mellow dogs — he`s not here for drama, chaos, or any youngster with main-character energy. What he is here for: naps (professional-level), quiet companionship, and people who appreciate a dog who`s mastered the art of chill.He knows his basic cues, walks nicely on leash, and genuinely thrives on human company — Greg just wants to be near his people, preferably on something soft.Because senior status can come with senior mobility, Greg`s dream home has minimal stairs and maximum comfort. In return, he offers a whole lot of calm, quiet devotion — no assembly required.Give Greg the easy, cozy retirement he`s earned.Greg weighs 65lbs

Story
⚠️ Fair warning: Bradley is going to break your heart before he heals it ⚠️ This poor guy was picked up as a stray in absolutely heartbreaking condition. The mange is so severe it hurts just to look at him. His skin is angry and inflamed, his ears are a mess with terrible infections, and he has a growth on one ear that will need to be surgically removed. And yet… Bradley still wagged his tail. Dogs are wild like that. The world can fail them in every imaginable way, and somehow they still believe the next person might be kind. Well, buddy, you finally hit the jackpot. Bradley is now safe and sound with our medical coordinator, where the healing has officially begun. No more suffering alone. No more surviving on the streets. Just warm beds, good food, medications, and people who are determined to make sure the rest of his story looks nothing like the beginning. We’re not going to sugarcoat it - this boy has a road ahead of him. But if there’s one thing we know how to do, it’s turn heartbreak into hope. The mange doesn’t define you. The scars don’t define you. And soon enough, this miserable chapter won’t define you either. Welcome, Bradley! All good things from here!

Story
🥩 WE HAVE ACQUIRED… BEEFY 🥩 This boy is built like he does side quests carrying refrigerators. He’s got the ground clearance of a ‘98 Civic with cut springs, legs that said, “Nah, we’re good,” and a head so gloriously oversized it probably has its own ZIP code. Beefy was an unclaimed stray from DuPage County Animal Services, which is absolutely wild because LOOK AT HIM. You mean to tell me this beef roast with legs was just out freelancing? Not anymore. His days of punching the clock as a street meatball are officially over. We’ve promoted him to Professional Couch Ornament, Blanket Burrito, and Certified Receiver of “WHO’S A GOOD BEEF?” approximately 184 times a day. We don’t know what life looked like before today, but we know exactly what it looks like now: 🥩 Snacks. 🛋️ Naps. ❤️ People who are completely unhinged over his juicy blockhead. 🍕 And probably at least one zoomie that ends with him forgetting he has the aerodynamics of a deep-dish pizza. May his bully waddle be strong, his snores shake the walls, and may strangers continue crossing parking lots just to tell him that he’s“a UNIT.” All good things from here!
