Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Chloe, a sweet senior, found herself at a high-kill shelter in Tennessee after her mom died and no one wanted her. It’s so tough for seniors who find themselves in such an overwhelming situation. And of course, the chance of a senior getting out of animal control alive is nearly zero.
In spite of such disappointment in humans, Chloe is rebounding in her foster home, and showing she is still hopeful that there is a loving, compassionate forever family out there somewhere, who will want to make her a part of their life.
Chloe is estimated to be about 10 years old. She is a Mix, probably a Labrador Retriever Mix, weighing about 50 lbs. Chloe is a great balance between gentle & affection, and playful & energetic.
She loves people and really enjoys being with them and cuddling with them. On the other hand, she likes to play, initiating play with her canine housemate on occasion. Chloe especially enjoys hiking in the fields and woods; she generally trots or gallops….and occasionally sprints to chase a squirrel up a tree.
She currently lives with another dog who is a bit obnoxious but, she tolerates him and if too much, will retreat to her crate. She is fine living with smaller dogs too. We do not know how she’d be with cats or kids.
An ideal home for Chloe is one with another dog, although we believe Chloe would be ok as an only dog, as long as she receives plenty of attention, cuddle time, and play activities from her humans, and would be included in all family activities. Chloe likes to communicate with her family and lets them know when she wants something, so it is important that her new family be attentive to her needs.
It is important to provide Chloe with plenty of exercise to keep her joints healthy and mobile. Supplements such as glucosamine/chondroitin are also of value. Although an older girl, Chloe loves to stay active and has plenty of living yet to do.
She is up to date on all vetting, fully vaccinated, heartworm negative and on monthly preventative, spayed, and microchipped.
If you are interested in adding this precious girl to your family, please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or 847-852-0895.
BAARK is located in the NW suburbs of Chicago.

1. Complete B.A.A.R.K.’s adoption application in its entirety. Prior to submitting an application for a particular pet, we encourage you to research the breed so that you understand the characteristics and needs of the animal.
2. After submitting the application, a B.A.A.R.K. adoption coordinator will contact you (assuming you are the primary caregiver to/adopter of the new pet) to review your application and conduct an initial phone interview.
3. A representative of B.A.A.R.K. will contact your references and verify the veterinary information that you have provided on the application for pets currently or previously owned. Please be sure you inform your references that you have provided their contact information to B.A.A.R.K. and that they will be contacted.
4. If, at any time during the adoption process, we conclude that the pet of interest is not a good match for your household, your application will be kept on file for one year. You will not be required to complete another application during that time period if you find another pet you are interested in adopting from B.A.A.R.K. Rescue.
5. After the initial phone interview, if B.A.A.R.K. has decided that the pet of interest to you may be a good fit for your household, a “meet & greet” will be arranged, either at the home of the foster family or at your home. If the first visit is preferred to take place at the foster home, a second visit will be arranged at your home.
6. B.A.A.R.K. will bring the pet of interest to your home for a meeting with ALL family members and ALL other pets within the household. The purpose of the home visit is to ensure that the pet you have chosen is appropriate for your living situation and lifestyle. Please note that ALL FAMILY MEMBERS AND ALL FAMILY PETS MUST BE PRESENT FOR THE IN-HOME INTERVIEW. More than one meeting may be required during the adoption process to ensure the best placement possible for the pet and the household.
7. When you have made the decision to adopt a pet from B.A.A.R.K. Rescue, we ask that you to spend 1-2 days thinking about the decision, in order to ensure that you are making the best choice for the pet and your family. A same day adoption is NEVER an option.
8. Once the decision is made to proceed with the adoption, an adoption contract must be reviewed, completed, and signed. B.A.A.R.K.’s adoption fee is non-refundable. You may also be asked to provide a separate check(s) of $150 as a fence deposit, obedience training deposit, and/or spay/neuter deposit. Check deposits will either be destroyed or returned upon completion of the required action.
