Lily 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!
Lily is:
Spayed: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Yes!
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized
- Currently taking joint supplements and pain medication to help with a mild limp in her back left leg
More about Lily:
Housebroken: Yes!
Crate trained: She has done well with free roam when home alone for up to 10 hours, which she prefers to being crated/confined.
Leash walking: Working on it! She can tend to pull a bit, and she has shown some reactivity/frustration when other dogs are reactive toward her, but has been friendly toward other friendly dogs.
Dog social: She lives with a resident dog in her foster home and has been doing well overall, but has shown some possessiveness of her food and people when overstimulated.
Cat social: Unknown
Kid friendly: Yes! She previously lived with 3 young kids between ages 6 and 10, and has also made friends with the children in her foster's neighborhood.
Lily likes:
- Draping herself across you like a canine blanket
- Bringing you a bone or toy in the shower if you leave the door open - she just wants to share everything with you!
- Stealing the covers in bed
Lily is the most loving, loyal girl who just wants to make you happy all the time. She is very affectionate and will lay across your lap at any chance she gets. She seems a little unaccustomed to walking on a leash, and would benefit from continuing to work on her loose leash walking skills with positive reinforcement training. She has shown some resource guarding behaviors over her food or person with the resident dog, seemingly when she is already overstimulated. She would need management if in a home with another dog, or may prefer to be the only dog so she doesn't have to share your affection and attention.
Lily's adoption fee is $300, and she is ready to be the love of your life!
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 application stays on file for one year and can apply to any dog in our program. Once the app is submitted you will receive an email within 48-72 hours. For additional questions, email adopt@onetail.org ***

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!
