My story

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

Mona 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!

Mona is:
Spayed: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Yes!
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized
- A senior gal who has cataracts, some missing teeth, and a small lump in her mammary gland. Her adopter should follow up on these items with their private vet.

More about Mona:
Housebroken: Yes!
Crate trained: She has done well with free roam overnight, and has not been left at home alone yet in her foster home
Leash walking: Doing well!
Dog social: She lives with other dogs in her foster home and has been co-existing well after a slow intro period.
Cat social: Unknown
Kid friendly: She would do best in an adult-only home, due to some body sensitivity.


Mona likes:
- Giving happy tail wags when you enter the room
- Being a fall fashionista in her tiny sweatshirts (which she will take off overnight while she sleeps soundly by your feet)
- Cuddling up in a warm lap or warm blankie



Mona is a little love bug who has slowly been coming out of her shell. While she is missing teeth, it only makes her more charming! She likes slow intros to new pups and does best with respectful dog pals, and then is happy to co-exist with them. She also politely requests consent to give her pets, as she has shown some body sensitivity.


Mona's adoption fee is $150, and she is eager to cuddle up with her forever family!

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!
