Story
Dippy is a sweet 4-year-old Chihuahua mix who’s looking for a peaceful place to call home after being surrendered due to his family’s housing issues. This little guy has a gentle, sensitive nature and thrives in a calm, quiet environment where he can feel safe and comfortable. Dippy enjoys soft beds, slow-paced routines, and one-on-one companionship with someone who appreciates his mellow personality. Once he feels secure, he shows his affectionate side and loves being near his trusted person. He would do best in a laid-back home without a lot of noise or chaos, where he can settle in and shine at his own pace. If you’re looking for a loyal, low-key companion with a tender heart, Dippy may be the perfect match for you.THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN SAVING A LIFE!Volunteers and staff are excited to assist you in the adoption process!

Story
Ever Met a Dog With More Personality Than Most People? Hi, I'm Arty—a fabulous small wire-coated pup with enough character packed into this perfectly compact frame to fill a mansion. And let me tell you, I know exactly who I am. I'm spirited, confident, and I don't apologize for knowing what I want. Some dogs are easygoing and mellow. Me? I'm Mr. Personality Plus, and life with me is never, ever boring. Here's the thing about me: I like to take my time getting to know new people properly before we become best friends. I'm thoughtful that way. I believe the best relationships are built on mutual respect and understanding. But once you've earned my trust? You'll have the most devoted, loyal companion for life. I promise you that. I'm great at showing affection on my terms. Sometimes I'm all about ear scratches and cuddles. Other times, I enjoy my personal space, and I appreciate when you respect that. It's not personal—it's just how I roll. But when I'm ready to play? Oh boy, am I ALL IN! You should see my wire coat bouncing as I zoom around with toys. My joyful spirit absolutely shines during playtime, and I'll make you laugh until your sides hurt. I'm looking for someone who appreciates a dog with incredible character. Someone who celebrates my individuality and understands that I'm not just a pet—I'm a companion, a friend, a personality. Someone who will be there for amazing cuddles when I seek them out, and who gets that the best things in life are worth waiting for. In return, I promise unwavering loyalty, unconditional love, and a companion who will bring excitement, laughter, and more personality than you knew was possible to your life every single day. Ready to meet your new best friend with style? With wags and whisker kisses, Arty

Story
🐾 Meet Shelly – The Sweetest Senior with So Much Love to Give At 10 years young, Shelly is a precious little Chihuahua with the cutest face and a heart full of love. She came to us looking for a fresh start, and now she's ready to spend her golden years exactly how she deserves—being spoiled, snuggled, and surrounded by the warmth of a loving home. Shelly may be a senior, but don’t let her age fool you—this little lady still has plenty of pep in her step! She enjoys short strolls, cozy blankets, sunbeams, and gentle cuddles with her people. Her favorite place to be is right by your side (or better yet, in your lap), soaking in all the love and attention she can get. She’s a calm, easygoing companion who thrives in a peaceful environment where she can truly relax and feel safe. If you’re looking for a loyal shadow, a tiny best friend, and a daily dose of sweetness, Shelly is your girl. She’s living proof that age is just a number—and that some of the best things in life come in small, senior-sized packages. 💛 Don’t miss your chance to give this perfect girl the forever home she’s been dreaming of. Note from Shelly's Foster: "Shelly is so full of life & love, that it is impossible not to adore her. She has come out of her shell so much since bringing her home. Shelly is loving, silly & so, so brave. I’m not sure what Shelly went through before finding Border Tails, but whatever it was, she hasn’t let it bring her down. This little girl is resilient & full of happiness. Shelly loves going on walks & has the cutest waddle ever. She is happy to meet new people, whether its at the pet store or the drive through. She is definitely a passenger princess! Shelly is super food motivated & never misses a meal. She will let you know it’s time for dinner when she starts following you on her back legs. Shelly is super affectionate & a bit of a 5 stage clinger, but in the best way. She has no problem with handling & loves to be close, whether she is sitting on your lap or laying on your chest. Shelly is working on potty training & the crate isn’t her favorite, but she eventually settles while I am away at work. Shelly would just prefer to be where her people are & who can blame her? Shelly does wonderful co-existing with my female pitbull. She is truly a star & will brighten your life in countless ways!"

Story
Say hello to Chugga Chugga Woo, a 13-year-old Chihuahua mix who’s full of personality, warmth, and love. Despite her age, she still enjoys gentle attention, cozy snuggles, and the comfort of being close to her favorite humans. Chugga is happiest in a quiet, peaceful home where she can relax, receive gentle care, and enjoy all the love and companionship she deserves. She’s the perfect senior companion for someone looking for a devoted little friend to share calm, heartwarming moments. Dog Day Out Review: "We took Chugga Chugga out for the day and she is as sweet as candy!! She wants nothing more than to cuddle up in your lap and just give you all the love. A true lap dog through and through! She craves it. The only thing she may love just as much as being in your lap, is being outside! She absolutely thrives outside and acts 10 years younger while running, galloping around & soaking in the fresh air, it’s soooo adorable. She has a big smile on her face when she’s outside. You’d never guess she’s 14 when you see her run around out there! Being outside & being on your lap = chefs kiss for Chugga Chugga!! Not only does she love it, but she’s excellent on leash. She totally follows your lead and isn’t reactive to any people or dogs. Even in the short 4 hours that we had her, I can just tell she is a very loyal girl and I know she will be as obsessed with her owners and they are with her. She’s just the best!"

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Athena Power (female, Terrier mix), Bon Bon Power (male, Chihuahua mix), Chocolate Power (male, Terrier mix), Cookie Power (female, Chihuahua mix), Flower Power (female, Chihuahua mix), Granuda Power (female, Chihuahua mix), Paloma Power (female, Chihuahua mix), and Tobi Power (male, Terrier mix) may all have different faces, sizes, and quirks, but they share one incredible thing in common — a second chance. This group came from a home where they lived their entire lives outdoors, until their family became overwhelmed with caring for so many dogs. They were later transferred to Border Tails Rescue from the Blue Island Police Department, where their journey toward comfort and care truly began. Because they’ve had little exposure to people or the rhythms of indoor life, the Power Dogs are still learning what it means to feel safe. They can be shy, skittish, and even a little spicy when they’re scared — but that’s just fear talking. With time, patience, and gentle guidance, they’re already showing glimpses of the affectionate, curious companions they’re sure to become. They’ll need adopters who can move at their pace, give them space to settle in, and handle them securely outdoors to prevent escapes as they adjust. Double leashing and careful introductions to new people & spaces will be paramount to their safety. The process of earning their trust won’t happen overnight, but when it does, it’s magic — the moment a Power Dog leans in for a cuddle or wags their tail just for you is one you’ll never forget. Once they learn that home is safe, they will return that trust tenfold - often becoming the most loyal, affectionate companions you could imagine. If you’re someone who finds beauty in helping a frightened dog learn what love feels like, one of the Power Dogs might just be waiting for you.
