My story

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

Lucas 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 on our website before visiting to streamline the process.

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

More about Lucas:
Housebroken: Yes!
Crate trained: He has done well in his crate when home alone for up to 4 hours so far
Leash walking: Doing well overall but he can tend to pull out of excitement to say hello to new friends, and would benefit from continuing to work on this
Dog social: Yes! Lucas loves playing with dog friends and has been participating in doggy playgroups at our Adoption Center.
Cat social: Unknown
Kid friendly: Unknown


Lucas likes:
- Going for walks and meeting new friends
- Cuddling
- Learning new things!



Lucas is a sweet puppy who has lots of love to give! He is energetic and eager to learn, and would love a home where he will get plenty of mental and physical activity as well as basic rewards-based training to keep him engaged and set him up for success as he matures. He can sometimes become a little mouthy (play bite) when overstimulated so would appreciate an adopter who can help him channel this energy in positive ways, like working on a puzzle toy or stuffed Kong. He has been working on the basics of potty and crate training, and would love a home where he can work to master both!


Lucas's adoption fee is $300, and he is ready to be his forever person's handsome sidekick!

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!
