My story

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

Pandi 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!

Pandi is:
Neutered: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Yes!
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized
- Being treated for dry eye with medications, about which his adopter should follow up with their private vet
- Suspected to have impaired hearing and vision

More about Pandi:
Housebroken: Doing well overall when on a consistent routine, and a fenced spot to go potty as he does not walk on a leash
Crate trained: He has done best with free roam of a closed room when home alone, for up to 10 hours
Leash walking: He does not walk on leash, as it seems to throw off his balance and disorient him. He will need a home with access to an yard or fully-enclosed potty area.
Dog social: He lives with other dogs in his foster home and has done well, generally keeping to himself and giving them their space too
Cat social: Unknown
Kid friendly: He has done well in living with a respectful teenager


Pandi likes:
- Being held and carried like the little prince he is
- Sniffing out treats and playing with stuffies
- Being the little spoon


Pandi is a sweet little guy who may have limited vision and hearing, but the love in his heart knows no bounds! He has done well with access to a fenced yard in his foster home, and loves roaming out there to get in his sniffs and rays. When he’s ready to come inside, he will sniff you out and come stand at your feet to let you know he’s ready to be carried back upstairs. He loves to nap with you, and will even let you wrap your arms around him and snore in his ear. He would love an adopter who is understanding of his limited sight and sound, and can give him a consistent and loving home environment!


Pandi's adoption fee is $150, and he is ready to find his big spoon!

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!
