My name is Peg Leg! I am a year old and just recently moved to the Windy City from Arkansas. I was surrendered at a shelter in Arkansas with a deformed front leg. When I got to Chicago, there were x-rays taken and the rescue learned it was an old break that was never taken care of so the leg healed incorrectly and had since callused over. At this point corrective surgery was not an option and they had to amputate the leg. Having lost a leg, it doesn't stop me one bit! I love to play and run around when I get excited. I also like to cuddle in your lap and sleep in bed with you if you let me. :) I can be unsure about new people at first and get stressed at the vet. Because of this a home with older children would be best. I am great with other dogs big or small. I'm crate trained, potty trained, and have been eager to learn new commands.
Peg Leg is UTD on vaccinations, is microchipped, dewormed, given flea and tick prevention and has been fixed. This furbaby is currently being fostered in Channahon , IL and would love to find a furever home! Adoption fee is $300, if you are interested in meeting or adopting please apply online at www.rescuewarriorscorp.org and we will arrange meet and greets with approved applicants only at thi s time.

Feel free to follow us on facebook, we are always saving more dogs. https://www.facebook.com/RescueWarriorsCorp/
If you can't adopt, please consider a donation care made directly to the rescue via paypal or contact us at info@rescuewarriorscorp.org. We will do our best to respond to any and all requests and contacts as soon as possible, but we are a 100% volunteer run rescue. It is great because that means we can keep our adoption prices low because we are not paying salaries, but all of our volunteers do have families and "real" jobs in order to support our passion of saving animals from euthanasia often just days or hours before they are scheduled to be put to sleep. That being said, one of us are going to do our best to contact via email or by phone within 48 hours of any inquiry. It is not uncommon that when you have made the decision to add to your family and committing to adopting a rescue dog that you are very excited, we just ask that you be patient with us.
