Shorewood, IL

Story

Marcos is an adorable ~2-year-old mixed breed, possibly Pug/Bulldog/Pit type mix would be our best guess! He is right at 30lbs. Marcos came to us from local animal control as an unclaimed stray. He's a big goofball who loves to run around and play. He is also always happy to crawl in your lap for scratches!! He will need someone willing to work on manners with him as he can be mouthy and likes to grab shirts or the leash. He is a smart, food motivated boy and is working on improving here, but would really thrive having someone who can work with him more consistently. He already knows sit and is always very proud of himself! Because he is working on his manners, he is looking for a home without kids.

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Momo! He is guessed to be a little right around 2 years old and weighs 52 lbs. He is the sweetest, goofiest little beefcake around. He loves people and loves other dogs and even cats. He gets along with kids, too, but due to his age and stature we would recommend he only go with older kids. Momo has hind end weakness and is also completely incontinent (both bowel and bladder). He will need a very special home that will be able to manage and accept these issues- as they will not improve and will be lifelong. He currently wears belly bands and diapers and we express his bladder several times a day to help keep him dry. We suspect he has spina bifida, but the radiologist said his xrays appeared normal. Momo's adoption donation of $450 helps cover the cost of his medical care. Adopters must live within a 1 hour driving distance from Romeoville, IL. Reference checks, vet checks, and home visits required. We do not do same-day adoptions. Email us with any questions info@perfectpooches.org. The application to adopt can be found under the "Adoption Process" tab on our website www.perfectpooches.org.

Collie

English Bulldog

Female, 5 yrs

Manhattan, IL

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Story

Collie is a five year old angel who has been treated as nothing more than income. For five years, Collie was cut into and had puppies taken from her body. Over and over, she was used and tossed aside. Her last surgery was last year, but it wasn’t to address the obvious issues hanging from her body. It was, again, to remove babies. We have questioned whether years of hormones and injections played a role, but after four veterinary visits, there are still no answers about the masses covering her body. They surround her joints and rub against the ground when she lies down. A dog neglected by her owner. Used only for what she could produce. A dog whose repeated cesareans continued while her own condition went unresolved. But we say: no more. Greed will never again decide what happens to her body. Today, Collie is safe with us at DTR. A wonderful team began her care before she arrived, and we will continue her journey here. Every decision will be made for HER. We hope to find her a home with someone very familiar with bulldogs. Someone who understands this will be a journey, and that comfort will always come before aesthetics. Someone who sees how deserving she is beneath everything she has endured. We are hoping to raise $500 toward diagnostics and the beginning of what may be a lengthy process of discovery. Someone saw her condition, yet the breeding continued. Puppies went home while their mother stayed behind, suffering neglect. Did anyone who bought her puppies ever ask to see the mom? Collie is the one left carrying the consequences of every person who failed her. Please help us give her answers, comfort, and the chance to be cared for without anything being taken from her in return. To donate, visit www.dtranimalfoundation.com and click Donate. Interested in giving Collie a home where she can heal while we address her health? Email dtr@dtranimalfoundation.com. Kennel and house trained. Great with cats, dogs, chickens, kids.

Story

Jersey girl is a short stout with an outgoing personality. She is so funny. Loves kids and every person she meets. Needing a home with no dogs, she still is involved with pack walks and leash skill classes. Maintaining a good citizen, we believe she has had past trama so extended play with dogs gets her stressed and that is why we have required no dog home. Sadly that is why she sits in our facility so long. We really would love to see this amazing girl get the family she deserves.

Chicago, IL

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Venus was rescued back in October of 2025. Her first week in rescue was 24/7 hospital care on IV liquids, antibiotics, and pain medicine. Her diagnosis included several broken ribs (likely from humans kicking her). We have a strong inkling that Venus somehow escaped from the life of a bait dog for dog fighting which sadly is commonplace in our state. She was very thin, every bone in her body was protruding and she had very infected abscesses all over her body from bite wounds. She had heartworms and has completed the full treatment. She has made a complete recovery and is ready to be a part of a family, something she has never had before! She does not get along with other dogs. Cats aren’t her thing either, but she makes up for it with loyalty, affection, and the sweetest temperament. Venus is ready to brighten someone’s world. Could it be yours? She is currently being fostered in Mississippi but included in your adoption fee is transport to a location near you by Rescue Riders Pet Transport, the most animal friendly transport on the road! Please message us if you are interested in adopting this little girl and we will send you an adoption application! We look forward to talking with you! Venus is still hoping for a family to love her. She is being fostered in Mississippi but included in your adoption fee is transport to you by Rescue Riders Pet Transport which is the most animal friendly transport on the road!

Story

Delilah, Daisy, and Mars came to us from local animal control after being removed from a hoarding situation. We were told they are Cocker Spaniel/French Bulldog mixes. They’re adorably goofy and are slowly learning to trust and about all the good things in life! They are all right at 22lbs and around 1-2yrs old. They are working on building confidence, getting comfortable with leashes, and all the noises of everyday life. They will need patient homes that can help them decompress, learn, and blossom! Potential adopters should understand that the potential breeds they are mixed with are both prone to ear infections. Please make sure to research the breeds! Because of their past, they would do best in a home without children. Daisy is a silly girl with an adorable underbite. She is excited about so much but is still unsure of how exactly to greet people. She's made lots of progress, and is happy to hang out near people and jump up on them for attention. She is a bit nervous about hands around her head, but is already getting much more comfortable with pets! She can be mouthy when excited but doesn't mean harm. She has made great progress on leash walking! Daisy recently befriended one of our beagles, and they had a blast running the fence, playing with toys, and giving some kisses through the fence.

He will launch himself at you, hoping you will catch him, then launch himself off you just to launch back onto you again. He warms up the quickest and will happily investigate new friends. He LOVES toys, especially balls, and will pounce on them to roll them around. He is doing well on learning the leash, but still has some more progress to make.
