Carmy 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 Carmy's foster!
Carmy is:
- Neutered
- Up to date on vaccines
- Microchipped
- Heartworm negative
More about Carmy:
Housebroken: Almost! He has done best on a consistent routine, and is still getting comfortable with going #2 on leash
Crate trained: Doing well overall for up to 6 hours at home alone, but takes a short time to settle initially.
Leash walking: Still very nervous on leash and will do best in a quiet, low-traffic area where he can feel more comfortable. Carmy needs a yard for best success.
Dog social: Carmy needs to live in a home with another dog. He is very shy and having a dog friend helps him feel more confident.
Cat social: Yes, he lives with cats in his foster home and has been doing well after a slow, proper intro period
Kid friendly: He has been sweet in brief interactions with kids. He approaches slowly and gently, keeps a respectful distance, and allows pets. If he gets nervous or scared, he simply walks away!
Carmy likes:
- Using his dreamboat puppy eyes for chaotic good
- Chasing the dog who is chasing the ball, but then forgetting what he was doing halfway through
- Holding down the couch so it doesn't fly away
- Snuggling with his humans, or a dog (or cat!) pal
Carmy is the sweetest boy with the wiggliest butt in town! He has been working to build up his confidence and to grow into his big paws, and some things are still very scary for Carmy - leaving the house and going for walks, especially at night, are at the top of the list. He is trying very hard to be brave but he asks for your patience as he works through this! He may benefit from having a confident dog pal to show him the ropes, and hasn't met a dog he does not love. He blossoms when he sees another dog, becomes more confident immediately, and gets a big goofy smile and a serious case of the wiggles from snoot to tail. Everyone who meets Carmy tells him he is the very bestest, silliest, try-hardest, handsomest, goofiest, and bravest boy they ever met. He is just working on believing them!
Carmy came to us very under-socialized and shy. He needs to live in a home with another dog to help show him the ropes of family dog life!
Carmy's adoption fee is $300, and he is excited to find his loving 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!
