Xena is living in a foster home. Fill out our quick adoption survey, and then we can set up a phone call or meet and greet with the foster!
Xena is:
Spayed: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Yes!
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized
- Currently taking medication for anxiety support
- Xena came to us with apparent trauma of her bottom lip, which hangs down and while it might look a little funny it does not cause her pain or slow her down at all.
More about Xena:
Housebroken: Yes!
Crate trained: She has done very well with free roam when home alone, for up to 8 hours
Leash walking: Xena is leash reactive and can whine/bark or pull when she sees other dogs on walks. She has been easily redirected but may do best in a lower-traffic area.
Dog social: No, she prefers not to be around other dogs
Cat social: No, she prefers not to have feline friends
Kid friendly: She has done well in interactions with respectful older kids!
Xena likes:
- Being a cozy queen - napping in a blanket burrito, stretching out on your lap, or curling up at the end of your bed
- Pulling squeakers out of stuffed toys and chewing them until they stop making noise
- Using her brain! She already knows "sit," "down," "paw," and "stay," and enjoys solving puzzle toys.
Xena is a bundle of joy and affection who instantly makes friends with everyone she meets. Don't let her age fool you-Xena is always up for a game of tug-of-war and is a pro at performing surgery on her squeaky toys. Xena loves all people, but can be reactive to other dogs. She wears a muzzle on walks and may do best in a lower-traffic area where she can consistently have a decent amount of space from other dogs on walks.
Xena's adoption fee has been sponsored thanks to a generous supporter, and she is ready to cuddle up on the couch with her adopter!
Next steps: Email adopt@onetail.org with questions, or submit an application online and we'll be in touch to schedule a meeting: https://www.onetail.org/apply-to-adopt/
*** Our adoption application stays on file for one year and can apply to any dog in our program. Once the app is submitted you will receive an email within 48-72 hours. For additional questions, email adopt@onetail.org ***

Our Adoption Center is open every Wednesday – Sunday in Bucktown at 2144 N Wood Street, but we are reachable by email 7 days/week!
Our Adoption Center has adoptable dogs. Adoptable cats and bunnies live in foster homes. We work on a first come basis. We are limiting the amount of visitors on site, so you may be asked to be added to the waitlist when you arrive. We require all family members of the household (including any resident dogs with current vaccination records) to be present at the introduction. We recommend being prepared to adopt same-day as the dogs at our Adoption Center are available for direct adoption and we do not “hold” them for specific applicants.
You can view which dogs are currently at our Adoption Center by selecting “adoption center” in the attributes tab on our Available Pets page.
ADOPTION APPOINTMENTS: For dogs, cats, and bunnies living in foster care our Adoption Team will set up adoption appointments with potential adopters after an application is submitted. We do not have cats, bunnies, or guinea pigs living at our Adoption Center (only dogs!)

More about this rescue
One Tail at a Time (OTAT) started as a backup plan for dogs that were not getting adopted or rescued by other groups in the area shelters. Over the years we have experienced consistent and steady growth: we are among the top transfer partners for dogs at Chicago Animal Care and Control (CACC) and for cats at several open intake shelters in Indiana, we have a robust transport program in which dogs are rescued from high-kill shelters in southern states, and we are even able to pull dogs from a rescue partner in Tulum, Mexico to help them get adopted in the Chicagoland area. Our growth has been, and continues to be, due to the overwhelming support received from our community.
Members enable us to take on complex medical cases and continue to grow our annual intake numbers. Volunteers have continued to line up to foster and care for dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs, to take on leadership roles, and to help build One Tail at a Time into a well-known and respected rescue organization in Chicago and beyond.
Due to our continuous growth and immensely supportive community of members, volunteers, fosters, adopters, and more, we have evolved into the One Tail at a Time Cooperative!
