Story
Meet Indie, a 3-year-old aussie mix with the cutest ears and smile. Indie enjoys playing with toys and getting yummy treats. She also loves fetch! Indie loves to go on walks with the volunteers and enjoys running in the yard, as well. When we sit down with she just wants to climb into our lap and give kisses while she gets pets!In September of 2023, Indie had surgery to correct an issue with a luxating patella and is fully healed and doing great! She's back to running around and playing like before. She is about 40lbs now and can likely stand to lose some of the weight she had gained while on cage rest.Indie is a herding breed, so as always, we strongly encourage anyone interested in her to research these types of dogs.

She promises to provide lots of love and laughter to her forever family!Indie's adoption fee has been fully sponsored by a generous donor!

Story
Kenai: A Christmas Boy with a Heart Ready to Heal Male • Neutered • DOB 12/25/2014Currently in Boarding – Naperville, IL Kenai was born on Christmas Day, but the gifts of love and stability have never come his way—until now. As the father of this rescued group, Kenai is the most confident and curious of the pack. Like many Australian Shepherds, he’s intelligent, observant, and quick to learn—he’s simply never had the opportunity to be someone’s dog. Kenai was found after years of neglect—not abuse, but a life with little human interaction or affection. Now, he’s timid and fearful, but not broken. With guidance and love, he’ll absolutely thrive. Kenai is neutered, dewormed, fully vetted, and up to date on shots. He’s currently in boarding in Naperville, but what he truly needs is a quiet foster home to decompress, get individualized attention, and learn to enjoy cuddles, leashes, and life inside a home. To build confidence, Kenai must be separated from his pack, as they lean on each other and withdraw from people when kept together. Independent placement will help him blossom. Australian Shepherds are loyal, eager to bond ##2379651##

Story
This handsome fellow and his siblings came in to rescue last winter after they were dumped on a back country road. Their mother was found deceased, so we took the puppies in to try to save them. They were very sick initially but are very healthy now. Big boy is a gentle boy but does love to run and play with other dogs. Big boy was the largest of the puppies, but his siblings have caught up to him. He has done amazing with his house and crate training. He is so deserving of a wonderful home to call his own. He is fostered in East TN, but transportation is included in the adoption fee and provided by Rescue Riders LLC. Please let me know if you have any questions. Please email us for the link to the adoption application

Story
Hi there! I’m Marigold - your future festive sidekick and resident border collie mix, jingling in at about 50 pounds of fluffy cheer. I’m around 1–2 years old, and I just arrived up from Kentucky, where a kind family cared for me since January 2025. But oh boy, am I excited to be here! It’s my very first time having a real indoor bed, and let me tell you… it’s WAY cozier than curling up on a chilly porch during those frosty winter nights.   I’m sharing my foster home with three teeny beagle pups. They’re cute as candy canes, but they bounce around like stovetop popcorn kernels. Good thing I’m a gentle, patient big sis. When the puppy blizzard starts swirling too wild, I politely use my “indoor voice” to remind them to simmer down like cocoa on low heat.   Don’t get me wrong, I’m responsible, but I’m also full of sparkle! I adore zooming around the yard playing chase and wrestling, and I walk beautifully on a leash. Exploring outside is one of my favorite things, and I’d make a fantastic hiking partner for someone who loves adventure as much as I do. A fenced in yard is going to be the best thing for me in my my forever home!   I’ve never tried agility, but with my quick paws, graceful moves, and wicked smarts, I bet I’d be a natural. Just picture me prancing through jumps and tunnels like one of Santa’s reindeer-in-training!   I’m the kind of companion who brings a peaceful warmth wherever I go. I’m gentle, quiet, and always paying attention, keeping our home safe without ever making a fuss - the kind of dog Santa would trust to guard the workshop. I won’t bark your ears off, I save my voice for moments that matter. I’m fully crate trained, potty trained, and ready to slip right into a nice family routine. I dream of spending December nights tucked against you on the couch, sharing a blanket, a movie, and the feeling of finally being home for the holidays.   If you think we’re meant to jingle all the way together, submit an application and come meet me. I already asked Santa for one thing this year: a forever family to call my own. Maybe it’s you and my Christmas wish comes true!   The adoption fee of $400 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 2, 2025, 10:14 am
