My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Joby is at our Adoption Center! You can visit our Adoption Center at any time during open hours, no appointment needed. Fill out our quick adoption survey on our website before visiting to streamline the process.

Joby is:
Neutered: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Yes!
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized
Currently taking antibiotics for Ehrlichia which is a tick borne illness

More about Joby:
Housebroken: He has been doing well overall when on a consistent routine, going out every few hours
Crate trained: He has done well when home alone in his crate for up to a few hours so far. He has also done well in his crate overnight, when the crate is in his person's bedroom.
Leash walking: He has shown some frustration/reactivity when he sees other dogs or squirrels, and can then pull or bark. He will need to keep working on this with positive reinforcement training.
Dog social: He has not had close interaction with other dogs while in our care, but was reported as dog friendly by his prior shelter.
Cat social: Unknown
Kid friendly:


Joby likes:
- Tennis balls!
- Being near his people
- Getting complimented on what a gentleman he is



Joby is a calm, quiet fellow who is incredibly sweet, affectionate and smart. He has been well-mannered in the home and is a joy to be around. He has been working to contain himself when he sees other dogs (and squirrels)(on walks, so would appreciate an adopter who can help him work on this. He is an amazing dog who will make his lucky future family very happy!


Joby's adoption fee is $300, and he is ready to complete his future family!

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

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!
