My story

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

Brenda 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!

Brenda is:
Spayed: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Yes!
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized
- Came to OTAT after being hit by a car and fracturing her pelvis, for which no surgical intervention is required at this time. She was cleared by a surgeon to return to moderate activity levels.


More about Brenda:
Housebroken: Almost! She has done well overall when on a consistent routine with frequent potty breaks.
Crate trained: Yes! She has done well in her crate overnight, and when home alone for up to 9 hours.
Leash walking: She is still new to walks as she has been on exercise restriction, but has been doing well so far.
Dog social: She lives with a resident dog in her foster home and has been doing well. She's been very sweet and respectful, and has benefited from having a confident dog pal to help show her the ropes.
Cat social: She lives with a dog-savvy cat in her foster home and has done well after a slow intro
Kid friendly: Unknown, but she can be nervous with strangers so may do best with older kids.


Brenda likes:
- Cuddling with her people
- Chewing on stuffed toys
- Playing with a dog pal


Brenda is a sweet and silly girl who wants to be by her person and her dog pal as much as she can. She may be a Velcro dog, but she's still excellent in her crate all day while you're at work and will give you the warmest welcome when you get home. In spite of being on exercise restriction, Brenda manages to have plenty of fun chewing up stuffies and cuddling. She can be a little nervous with new people, but with some patience and space (and treats!) she warms up and is then your little BFF.


Brenda's adoption fee is $300, and she can't wait to meet her new family!

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!
