My story

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

Chickpea 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!

Chickpea is:
Neutered: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Yes!
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized

More about Chickpea:
Housebroken: Yes!
Crate trained: Yes! He has done well in his crate when home alone for up to 9 hours.
Leash walking: Doing well overall, but he can sometimes pull toward other dogs out of excitement to say hello. He has done well with being redirected, like crossing the street or turning around until the other dog passes.
Dog social: Yes! He has done well in playgroups with other dogs of various sizes, and has been friendly when meeting other dogs on walks
Cat social: Unknown
Kid friendly: He has done well in interactions with kids of all ages


Chickpea likes:
- Any fluffy toy that gives him the opportunity to pull all the stuffing out
- Quietly watching you in the kitchen just in case you need a little "help" cleaning up crumbs
- Snuggling up in a blanket



Chickpea is a loving, friendly, silly boy. His favorite thing is to be outside, go for walks, and to destroy stuffies. He loves chewing on a Nylabone or Kong during his downtime. When sitting on the couch Chickpea loves to be close to his people and will position himself as close as possible (if not on top of) you! He just wants to show you he loves you, and will probably kiss your face too! He does well in his crate and is 100% housebroken. He would thrive in a home where he will get plenty of mental enrichment, physical activity, and of course cuddle time!


Chickpea's adoption fee is $300, and he is ready to snuggle his new family!

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!
