My story

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

Ferry is living 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.

Ferry is:
Spayed: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Ferry is still receiving the core puppy vaccine series and will need additional vaccines after adoption to reach full immunization
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized

More about Ferry:
Housebroken: Not yet but working on it! With a strict schedule and routine, she will catch on in no time
Crate trained: She has done well when home alone in a playpen with her sister for up to 5 hours, but can take a short time to settle initially.
Leash walking: She has not yet had much experience walking on leash, so will need to work on this with positive reinforcement training!
Dog social: She has done well in living with adult dogs as well as with her littermate, and she has been friendly and playful.
Cat social: She did well on a sleepover in a home with a cat, given space and a slow intro.
Kid friendly: Unknown, but we suspect she would do well!



Ferry likes:
- Snuggling with her person
- Playing with her sister or a dog pal
- Learning and exploring!



Ferry is a loving, snuggly girl who is unfazed by almost everything! She loves to play and adventure, but is also happy to cuddle with you or catch up on beauty sleep. As a growing young pup, she will appreciate an adopter who can help her master the basics, and who is ready for all the stages that puppyhood and being an adolescent brings.

OTAT requires that all dogs 6 months and under be enrolled in a positive reinforcement training program within 2 weeks of their adoption at their adopter's expense.

Ferry's adoption fee is $350, and this sweet girl can't wait to snuggle with her forever family!

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!
