Story
Bruce is an almost three year old, active pitty. His birthday is 10/31/21. He loves to play ball, play with sticks, and take long naps on the couch. He is kennel trained. He learns very quickly. Knows sit, paw, lay down, and kennel. He’d probably do best with a family without small kids as he loves to play with them but knocks them over.

Story
I’m Manny, a 12 year old, 20 pound, male Corgi mix. I’m looking for a special home to spend my golden years. I’m very loving and get along with dogs and cats. I take my time warming up to new things. I am house trained. I am blind but get around fine and have no problem with stairs. In my past life I was very secluded and not cared for. That gave me some triggers. Well really just one — gates, any kind of gate. Because of Manny’s nervousness and past life, we will plan of multiple meetings. Also, Manny will need to be adopted within 50 miles of Flossmoor, IL. Manny is microchipped as well as up to date on vaccines, monthly preventatives. He has had a dental. Manny’s adoption fee is $150. If you are think you are Manny’s special someone, please visit heathersfosterdogs.org to complete and submit your adoption application.

Dachshund Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier

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. If you are interested in adopting, then please go to heathersfosterdogs.org. Click on Adoption Application. Submit your completed application, which will serve as the basis for a conversation, & you will be contacted. Meetings are by appointment only with a reviewed adoption application. We are located in the south suburbs of Chicago and serve the Chicago metropolitan area. We do not ship dogs.

Taurus

Chihuahua Miniature Pinscher

Story
Looking for an already housetrained little black dog who will brighten your days for years to come? Consider Taurus. Taurus is an 18 month - 2 year old, 17 pound, neutered male Chihuahua/Min Pin/Yorkie mix (DNA tested). Taurus is a fun guy who may take his time to get to know you. He will then want to be your friend, go for walks with you, zoom around the yard whenever possible, perch high on a couch pillow while you watch TV or work on the computer & sleep in your bed (under the covers much of the time). Taurus is cautious when meeting new people. Taurus would love bonding & learning with his best friend while taking training classes. Our limited experience observing Taurus’s reaction to small children leads us to recommend a household without younger children. Taurus would consider a canine playmate a plus. He likes all the dogs he has met. The more time Taurus has spent with the dogs in his foster home, the more he has enticed them to play with him. A small dog secure FENCED yard is a must. Quick Taurus loves to roam & survey his domain. His preferred activity level is higher than average. Taurus is housetrained, neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and up to date on heartworm, flea & tick preventatives. Our vet’s exam showed Taurus to be 18 months to 2 years old & in excellent health. Taurus may not be a health food nut, but he considers broccoli as good as a few of the treats he has been offered. Oddly enough, although a chewer of sticks outside, we have not found a crunchy treat Taurus wants. He has favored several varieties of the soft ones. Taurus's adoption fee is $500. If you’re interested in Taurus, first you may want to see him in action & learn more about him on his public Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61566382906267) or search on Taurus of Heather’s Foster Dogs. If then you’re even more interested, then go to heathersfosterdogs.org. Using the menu at the top of the page, click on “Adoption Application.” Complete & submit an adoption application online. You will be contacted after it is forwarded to Taurus’s foster grandpa. No meeting will be scheduled before he has had an opportunity to review an application. *** Foster Location: South suburbs of Chicago. Please no applications outside the greater Chicagoland metropolitan area (within 2 hours) ***
