Hoss 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 Hoss's foster!
Hoss is:
- Neutered
- Up to date on vaccines
- Microchipped
- Heartworm negative
- Currently taking medication for anxiety support
Hoss is:
Housebroken: He has been doing well overall when on a consistent routine
Crate trained: He has done well when home alone for up to 4 hours, but can take time to settle when crated while his people are home
Leash walking: He can become overexcited when he sees other dogs on walks, and will need to keep working on this with positive reinforcement
Dog social: Yes, he lives with 2 resident dogs in his foster home and has been doing well! He has been especially well-matched with playful dog pals.
Cat social: He has done well in living with a dog-savvy, confident cat after a slow intro period
Kid friendly: Unknown but would likely do best with kids 12+ given his excitability
Hoss likes:
- cuddle sessions on the couch with his humans
- a good wrestling match with a dog pal
- a nice game of fetch in the backyard, and he will do anything for a squeaky ball!
- learning new tricks in exchange for tasty snacks
Hoss is an active and energetic boy so would do best in an active home where he will get plenty of mental enrichment and physical activity. He is excited to greet new people but just needs a bit more training to learn not to jump on them. He would do best with kids 12 and up, as he can become mouthy and jumpy when overstimulated. He can be a chatty boy, so may be best in a home without thin/shared walls. He loves having playful dog pals to burn off some energy and snuggle with!
Hoss's adoption fee is $300.
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 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!
