George Strait 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!
George Strait is:
Neutered: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Yes!
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized
- Currently taking medication for anxiety support when home alone
More about George Strait:
Housebroken: Doing well when on a consistent routine
Crate trained: He has done best with free roam when home alone for a few hours at a time. When crated at home alone, he can become stressed and has difficulty settling.
Leash walking: Doing well overall but he can tend to pull a bit toward small critters
Dog social: He has seemed curious and friendly when he encounters other dogs. He may enjoy having a dog pal in the home to help him feel more comfortable and confident, and prefers a dog who matches his energy - has done well playing with well-matched friends.
Cat social: Unknown, but he has shown prey drive toward cats he sees on walks
Kid friendly: He has done well in spending time with older kids, but is likely not a match for younger kids as he can be protective of high value treats and his person.
George Strait likes:
- Going for car rides and walks
- Being near his people and cuddling with his dino stuffy
- Squeaky toys, Nylabones, snuffle mats, lick mats...all the toys!
George Strait is a sweetheart who is gentle and attentive, and promises that (taking a line from his namesake) in all the world, you'll never find a love as true as his. He came to OTAT from a partner shelter in Texas, and was content to leave his "Texas exes" behind in his quest for a forever home. He loves walks and chilling on the couch, and when he puts his giant fluffy paw on your lap, you will not be able to help but scratch his soft furry ears! He is good at entertaining himself with enrichment toys and treats, but he just wants to be by you all the time. He has struggled with separation anxiety when home alone, and will need a patient adopter who can help him with this. He can sometimes become mildly mouthy when overly excited (like getting ready to go for a walk), and would appreciate an adopter who can help him channel his energy in positive ways, like working on puzzle toys or stuffed Kongs. He has also shown some resource guarding of high-value treats and of his person when strangers approach, so management in these situations will be needed.
George Strait's adoption fee has been sponsored by a generous supporter, and he is ready to "Check Yes" on his future 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!
