My story

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

Bobby 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!

Bobby is:
Neutered: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Bobby is still receiving his core puppy vaccine series and will need additional vaccines after adoption to reach full immunization
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized

More about Bobby:
Housebroken: Not yet! As a tiny young puppy, he has mainly been using potty pads and her adopter will need to help him work on this once in his new home
Crate trained: He has done best in a gated area when home alone for up to 2 hours, and would benefit from continuing to work on being comfortable when home solo and in his crate
Leash walking: He's still learning to walk on a leash, but he has seemed comfortable on walks so far
Dog social: He has been curious about other dogs he sees on walks, and has done well living with his sister Marsha
Cat social: Unknown
Kid friendly: He has done well in brief interactions with kids on walks


Bobby has no known medical needs beyond routine wellness care


Bobby likes:
- Exploring all the newness around him
- Playing with his toys or learning new tricks
- Getting belly rubs



Bobby is an even-keel pup who loves playing, but also enjoys his solo chew time. When he is done with his activities, he loves to settle in for some quality naptime. He is smart and enjoys learning new things, so would love a home where he'll get lots of mental enrichment and positive reinforcement training opportunities. As a teething puppy, he has benefited from having appropriate chew toys, and would appreciate an adopter who can help him to redirect this energy in positive ways. Bobby will do best with an adopter who is ready for all the stages that puppyhood and being an adolescent brings.

OTAT requires that all dogs 6 months and under be enrolled in a positive reinforcement training program within 2 weeks of their adoption at their adopter's expense.

Bobby's adoption fee is $350, and this sweet boy is excited to grow up in his 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!
