Tater is at our Adoption Center! You can visit our Adoption Center at any time during open hours, no appointment needed. Fill out our quick adoption survey from our website before visiting to streamline the process.
Tater is:
Neutered: 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 Tater:
Housebroken: Yes!
Crate trained: Yes, he has done well in his crate for up to 6 hours when home alone!
Leash walking: He can get overwhelmed in busier areas and may pull toward people and other dogs. He would do best in a quieter area, and has been making progress in refocusing with the help of positive reinforcement training as well!
Dog social: He has done well in meeting and playing with other well-matched dogs.
Cat social: Unknown, but he has shown prey drive toward small critters on walks.
Kid friendly: He has been friendly in brief interactions with kids on walks, though may do best with slightly older kids given his energy
Tater likes:
- Being a silly goof
- Being a ray of sunshine
- Keeping you company while you work (or shower), just in case you need some moral support!
Tater will truly make you laugh every day - from his cute frowny face to his enthusiasm about everything, he makes life fun! Since being busted out of the local city shelter, he has jumped right into city life. He is the best possible form of a micro-manager, in that he wants to be a part of everything you do. He has been working on remaining calm and focused on walks, and would do best in a quieter area where he can best focus on positive reinforcement training. He has shown some mouthy (play biting) behavior when overstimulated but has done well with being redirected to an appropriate toy instead. He is an energetic boy who has benefited from having consistent mental and physical activity to keep him engaged and fulfilled!
Tater's adoption fee is $300, and he is ready to be your loyal sidekick!

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!
