Story
Sheldon is a four and a half year old mix breed, possibly Yorkie and Dachshund. We started him on a weight management diet ( he's a bit pudgy at 20 lbs). In his heart, Sheldon is a sweet, loving little guy. Regretfully, something in his past, of which we know almost nothing, has made him distrustful and snappish. What we do know of his past, he was surrendered by his owner at three and a half years of age with raw feet and large spots of missing hair on his back from an untreated flea infestation. The fleas are long gone and the hair has grown back, gaining his trust has been another story. After several months in a foster home he has come to adore his foster mom. She is allowed to do just about anything, even baths! For nails he goes to a groomer and really doesn't put up a fuss. He is normally fine with his foster dad, but less trustful and has bit him, nothing horrible, more of a warning. Sheldon gets along OK with the resident dog. He would, however, would probably prefer being an only pet. We know it's a long shot but Sheldon needs a home of his very own. We feel he'd do well with an experienced dog owner, someone who is loving, compassionate and would allow as much time as necessary to gain his trust. Sheldon has been OK with adult visitors. He will bark at them until they sit down, then he'll approach for pets. We do not trust him around children. He's put in a room with a gate when kids visit. When no one is home he's happy in his crate with a special treat. He will bark to alert you if he hears something. Therefore an apartment or condo would not be a suitable living arrangement. Sheldon loves to go outside to chase the squirrels, sniff around for other critters and he likes you to stay out with him. He does not like the rain or the snow. He enjoys being brushed and then rolling around on the floor to mess it all up again. He lives to sit in your lap so you can gently rub his ears. If you think you might be interested in adopting Sheldon, please take the time to fill out an application. Sheldon is up to date on vaccinations, neutered, microchipped & current on heartworm & flea preventatives. Sheldon’s adoption fee is $350.

Story
Myrtle 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! Myrtle is: Spayed: Yes! Up to date on vaccines: Yes! Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized More about Myrtle: Housebroken: Yes! Crate trained: She has free-roamed when left alone, and did well when tested in a crate. Leash walking: Dream on a leash, for the most part. She has begun reacting to passing dogs, but her behavior is manageable. She also doesn't enjoy strangers talking to her. Dog social: She has been selective with her dog pals and has seemed more comfortable with smaller, calmer dogs. She would do best with slow introductions to well-matched dogs. Cat social: Yes, she has done well in living with a confident cat in her foster home after a slow intro period. Kid friendly: Not. a match Myrtle likes: - Rolling around in the grass - Giving you kisses in the morning - Sitting in your lap while you work Myrtle is a hilariously sassy gal who loves nothing more than to be with her trusted people. Once Myrtle bonds with you, she wants to be by your side (or in your lap), giving sloppy kisses and cuddling. She is a typical Dachshund, who knows just how to make you laugh with her silly antics. She’s incredibly smart—give her a puzzle or a game, and she’ll master it instantly! She’s quite agile, and is up for a walk, or car ride, whenever offered. She has shown some nervousness around strangers, especially when they are visiting her home space, and will need an adopter who can give her plenty of time, space, and treats when meeting new people. Once you’re in Club Myrtle, you’re in for life—but she’s selective about her guest list! She would appreciate a calmer and quieter home where her person is with her more often than not, and she isn’t a great fit for elevator buildings, give her stranger danger. Myrtle has made great strides in learning to patiently wait for your return, but in the beginning she will take some time to settle. She has some medical needs that require medication and vet support, so her adopter should also be comfortable with handling her ongoing care. Myrtle is currently taking medication for anxiety support, heart disease, and allergies. She will receive a hernia repair once heartworm negative. She has mammary masses and dental disease that are being regularly monitored. She is heartworm positive and on activity restriction. Myrtle has been undergoing treatment at Ellis Clinic at no charge to the adopter. Heartworm is a treatable disease that most dogs make a full recovery from. You can learn more about heartworm treatment on our resource page -https://www.onetail.org/heartworm/ Myrtle's adoption fee has been sponsored by a generous supporter, and she is eager to start the second half of her life in a furever home! Next steps: Email adopt@onetail.org with questions, or submit an application online and we'll be in touch to schedule a meeting: https://www.onetail.org/apply-to-adopt/ *** Our adoption application stays on file for one year and can apply to any dog in our program. Once the app is submitted you will receive an email within 48-72 hours. For additional questions, email adopt@onetail.org ***

Story
Daisy is a 2 year old Dachshund/Chihuahua Mix looking for her forever home. Currently Daisy is looking for a home that can be patient and slow with her as of first instinct she is a timid girl. She tends to warm up fairly quickly but regardless we are looking for a home that can provide that extra patience. - Daisy has lived with children before but because she is on the timid side we would recommend children being 10 years old and up. - Daisy is good in her crate overnight, and does not have accidents. - She would do best in a quiet home without MANY strangers coming and going. - She is good on a leash and in the car. - She is dog friendly and has met a lot of other personalities. We have noticed that she enjoys calmer dogs more than a hyperactive friend. Dasiy is available for adoption within 3 hours of Chicago. Her adoption fee includes spay, up to date vaccines and preventatives, heartworm negative and microchip. If you are interested in being considered as a potential forever home, please apply for adoption directly. If you have any questions before applying please email adopt@chicagorescueauthority.org.
