Plume 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!
Plume is:
Spayed: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Yes!
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized
More about Plume:
Housebroken: Yes
Crate trained: She has done best with free roam when home alone for up to 6 hours, after taking a short time to settle initially. She will need to keep working on this as she transitions to her new home.
Leash walking: She can be very alert on leash, and can pull toward and bark at other dogs she sees on walks. She would benefit from continuing to work on loose leash walking with positive reinforcement, and would do best in a quieter neighborhood.
Dog social: She has been selective with her dog pals and may be comfortable with some but not all. She has shown resource guarding behaviors with other dogs, and may do best as the only dog in her future home.
Cat social: Unknown, but she has shown prey drive toward small critters on walks
Kid friendly: Likely not a match, as she has shown resource guarding behaviors with people and can be excitable when greeting people.
Plume likes:
- Requesting belly rubs by rolling over, and nuzzling into you when you rub her neck/scruff
- Using her brain to solve puzzles!
- Bringing you a toy when she wants to play
Plume is a stunning gal who is alert, intelligent, and will do well with someone who takes an active part in advanced training and exercise. Plume knows basic commands of sit, down, give paw, and she comes when called. She likes learning new things. Plume is sweet and loving with all people, but is selective with her dog friends and would need supervised introduction. She loves her walks, playing ball in the yard, tearing boxes, looking at the window, solving puzzles, and learning new things. She is waiting for her forever home, where with love, exercise, and training she can come into her own and be her best self and your best dog!
Plume has been taking medication for anxiety support. She is heartworm positive and on activity restriction. She has been undergoing treatment at Ellis Clinic at no charge to the adopter. Heartworm is a treatable disease that most dogs make a full recovery from. You can learn more about heartworm treatment on our resource page - https://www.onetail.org/heartworm/
Plume's adoption fee has been sponsored by a generous supporter, and she is ready to get all the belly rubs in her forever home!

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!
