My story

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

Molly 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!

Molly is:
Spayed: 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

More about Molly:
Housebroken: Yes!
Crate trained: Working on it and doing well overall. She has been left at home alone for up to 10 hours, but has preferred to have free roam of a gated area versus being crated.
Leash walking: Working on it! She has shown reactivity on walks when she sees other dogs and small critters, and can then pull. She will need to keep working on this!
Dog social: She has seemed uncomfortable in meeting some dogs, and would need slow and structured introductions to any well-matched dog friends.
Cat social: Unknown, but she has shown prey drive to small critters on walks
Kid friendly: Unknown, but she is likely not a match for young kids as she has shown some discomfort when she sees toddlers while on walks.


Molly likes:
- Long walks (or runs!) on the beach
- Napping with her head on a pillow, like the princess she is
- Doing zoomies!

Molly is a cuddly and sweet girl who also loves to play and use her brain. She is a major beach bunny and loves to romp on the sand or go for a run in the sand. At home, she likes to relax in the corner of the couch, but NEEDS a pillow to rest her soft head on. She has seemed uncomfortable around some other dogs, and may need very slow, structured introductions to any potential dog friends. She can also tend to pull on leash so will need to keep working on this with positive reinforcement training, and may do best in a slightly lower-traffic area. She would thrive in an active home that can provide her with plenty of mental and physical activity!


Molly's adoption fee is $300, and she is ready to take a long walk on the beach in the sunset with you!

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!
