Story
?? Meet Louisa, Our Brave 2-3-Year-Old Pup With the Best Personality on a Remarkable Journey! ?? Louisa's story is one of resilience and hope. She came to us from Chicago Animal Care and Control (CACC), where her life was at risk due to medical issues. ?? At just 2-3 years old, Louisa faces a unique challenge - she doesn't use her back leg at all, and X-rays have revealed a concerning issue. ?? But what truly sets her apart is her incredible personality! Louisa is a bundle of joy and love, captivating everyone she meets with her warm and affectionate nature. ?? ?? Right now, we are awaiting results for a blastomycosis test to rule out this fungal infection. (Blastomycosis is a condition that can affect dogs and humans, usually transmitted through inhaling fungal spores from the environment.) ?? If it's not blastomycosis, the grim possibility we're facing is osteosarcoma, a type of bone cancer. ?? But there's a ray of hope! Louisa is blessed to be in a loving foster home, where her foster parents can't stop raving about her. ?? And here's where it gets even more incredible - Live Like Roo has graciously agreed to sponsor her care if she does indeed have osteosarcoma. ?? We are covering the cost of Louisa's blastomycosis test and providing her with the best possible care in the meantime. ?? But we need your support to continue helping Louisa on her journey to recovery. ?? Please consider making a donation, no matter how big or small, to ensure that Louisa, our 2-3-year-old sweetheart with the most heartwarming personality, receives the care and love she truly deserves. ???? Your contribution can make a world of difference in Louisa's life. Let's come together and give her the chance to live a full and happy life, no matter what challenges may come her way. ??

Story
Meet Mentos Moo! Mentos Moo had a rough start to life, being one of 15 dogs coming in to BTR from a hoarding case earlier this year. Mentos has been in a foster home for a while, and he is finally starting to be the dog he was always meant to be! Mentos has been around dogs and cats, and coexists with both great! He is finally learning to play with his foster siblings, and enjoying his new life! He is coming along in potty training, and has been a very polite house guest! Mentos is starting to trust people more, and showing less fear in his daily interactions! He is starting to learn tricks like sit, and he has become a completely different dog since coming into BTR! ***Please note that these dogs came from a hoarding in February and will need a patient, quiet household who will allow them to continue to adjust and warm up at their own pace. They are wonderful dogs and are going to be a fantastic addition to a family but need time to decompress and learn how to be dogs and trust people. They are required to go to a home that has another dog or be adopted with one of the siblings they are co housed with.

Meet Ramon: Your Future Best Friend! Ramon is the sweetest boy you'll ever meet, and he's on the lookout for his forever home. This gentle soul may be a bit shy at first, but once you earn his trust, you'll discover an incredibly loving companion who simply wants to be by your side. Ramon has enjoyed a few Dog Day Outs, and each time, people rave about his sweetness and calm demeanor. He rides perfectly in the car, and his playful yet relaxed nature makes him a joy to have around. Despite the stress of shelter life, Ramon remains hopeful, waiting for the family that will see beyond the surface. It's heartbreaking that no one has inquired about this wonderful dog yet, but we believe that the right family is out there. Ramon is ready to shower you with loyalty and love, and we know that any family who welcomes him into their hearts will be rewarded with a faithful friend for life. Please consider giving Ramon a chance-he's eager to find his place in a loving home!

Story
Mel is looking for her perfect match: a loving home where she can be the only pet and truly shine. Though she's currently timid of other animals, including cats, any reactions she has are driven purely by fear rather than aggression. Mel is making strides toward overcoming her fears, and she's even had multiple playful interactions with another dog after some careful introductions, showing that deep down, she wants to connect. Her journey to feel comfortable around other pets will need continued patience, with a dedicated handler who can guide her through her fears alongside a professional trainer. A younger adopter with a gentle approach could be ideal to help her blossom. Mel is a huge cuddle bug and likes to stick near her person. Couch time is a fan favorite in her foster home, and she is always making her foster laugh with her silly antics (like sitting like a human or rolling up as tight as a cinnamon roll). Mel would excel in dog sports-she's got the athleticism and drive to dominate any field! If sports aren't your thing, she'd also thrive in a semi-active home. While she's content to lounge on the couch all day, she needs regular exercise like any other dog, such as a 1-2 mile walk or a vigorous play session. Her favorite activity? The flirt pole-it's the highlight of her day, and she can't get enough! Are you ready to help Mel unlock her full potential?
