My story

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

Miss Honey 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!

Miss Honey is:
Spayed: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Yes!
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized
- Currently on medications for anxiety suppport

More about Miss Honey:
Housebroken: Working on it and making progress, but may still have occasional accidents. She will benefit from continuing to work on this with positive reinforcement training and a consistent routine!
Crate trained: Yes! She has done well for up to 8 hours in her crate when home alone, and sleeps well in her crate overnight.
Leash walking: Doing well overall. She does not pull but she can occasionally bark when other dogs bark at her first.
Dog social: Yes! Miss Honey has participated in dog playgroups at our Adoption Center and did well. She lives with other dogs in her foster home and likes to play, but may guard resources (food, toys, chews) so should have management in place around high value items.
Cat social: Unknown
Kid friendly: She has been friendly towards children but is a better match for older kids (12+) as she can become easily excitable


Miss Honey likes:
- Watching TV with you
- Enjoying the sunshine
- Cuddling up in some cozy blankets



Miss Honey has two speeds: attention-seeking-shadow and total couch potato. Most of the time, she is happy to cuddle up to you on the couch or snooze in her bed while you cook or work from home, but if she decides you haven't paid attention her to enough she will follow you everywhere. That being said, if you play with her for 10-15 minutes, she is totally knocked out on the couch for the rest of the evening. When you are sitting on the couch watching TV, she will try her best to lay on top of you so she can maximize the potential for belly rubs. She loves to be as cozy as possible, and will burrow in blankets or squeeze herself into the smallest dog bed available. She would appreciate an adopter who can help her channel her energy in positive ways when she becomes overstimulated, to avoid mouthing and jumping behaviors.


Miss Honey's adoption fee is $300, and she is excited to find the perfect person to cuddle with on the sofa!

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!
