My story

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

Roxy 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!

Roxy is:
Spayed: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Yes!
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized
- Has a small papilloma on her left ear and some dental tartar, about which her adopter should follow up with their private vet.

More about Roxy:
Housebroken: Yes!
Crate trained: Yes, she has done well in her crate and with free roam when alone, though she has not been left at home alone too much yet
Leash walking: Doing well!
Dog social: Yes! She lives with 2 resident dogs in her foster home and has been doing well. She is very respectful and friendly.
Cat social: Yes! She lives with a cat in her foster home and has been doing great.
Kid friendly: Unknown


Roxy likes:
- Playing fetch
- Snuggling with her person
- Learning new things



Roxy is the sweetest girl who is an excellent sidekick. She will gladly curl up and sit right next to you while you work or catch up on Netflix without a peep. She also knows when to remind you to take a stretch break or when to close your laptop for the day. She’s so teachable and smart, and she knows “paw” as well as all the basic commands. She is dog- and cat-approved, and overall a gem of a girl who would likely do well in many types of homes!


Roxy's adoption fee is $150, and she is ready to curl up with her forever family!

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!
