Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Rosie – The Little Pup with a Big Heart! Say hello to Rosie, an 8-month-old Japanese Chin/Havanese mix who’s as sweet as she is spunky! Weighing in at a petite 8 lbs (and likely to stay under 10!), Rosie is the perfect size for cuddles—and she loves them just as much as she loves a good case of the zoomies! Rosie is a playful pup who gets along great with dogs of all sizes. Whether it’s a game of fetch, a friendly wrestle with her foster siblings, or zooming laps in the yard, she’s always ready for fun. At night, she turns into the perfect snuggle buddy, curling up beside her human for a cozy rest. This smart girl is already about 80% potty trained and does well overnight. She’s learning her leash manners and comes running when you call her name—especially if there’s playtime involved! As a growing puppy, she’ll need continued training and lots of love as she learns the ropes. Rosie is still working on her social skills and can be shy when meeting new people. She just needs a few minutes (and a little patience) to feel safe—but once she trusts you, she’s yours for life. Because she can be startled by quick movements, she’ll do best in a calm home with older children who understand her boundaries. Her dream home? One with a fenced yard where she can run to her heart’s content, and a doggie sibling or two to show her the way. Rosie is ready to blossom into the loving, loyal companion she’s meant to be—she just needs the right family to help her shine. Could that be you? *HWMAR presents the information in these bios based on our foster observations and any information presented to us regarding prior living conditions, breed specifications.

Story
Bitsy is estimated to be a 5-6 year old Havanese. She came to us from one of our rescue partners looking for a fresh start after being released from a commercial breeder. She came along side her bestfriend Betsy, who is estimated to be a 4 years old. Here they were used for profit and now are learning what it’s like to be a normal dog. As a lot of other commercial breeds dogs they is looking for a home that can provide patience, love and training. She is affectionate and definitely wants attention which isn’t always the case. However she will need work on basic things as in: - Potty training as she probably lived in a kennel majority of her time and is learning routine on going in and out. - Leash training as this is the first time she’s worn a leash or harness. - At this time we are requiring a fenced yard, however that could change if she makes progress in this. - She will be adjusting to a new environment and so reassurance when she there are loud noises or new things will be so helpful. If you are interested in being considered for Betsy AND Bitsy as they are a bonded pair, apply directly. If you are have any questions before applying please email adopt@chicagorescueauthority.org. Their adoption fee ($500 & $250 equaling $750) includes their spay, Bitsy's dental, up to date vaccines and preventatives, negative heartworm test, and microchip. They located in Chicago and adoptable within 3 hours of Chicago.

Story
Look at adorable little Khaki. This sweet puppy is a Havapoo – which is a cross between a Havanese and a poodle. He has lots of puppy energy and loves to play with all toys and people. Khaki was discarded because he’s deaf and may have some vision impairments. He can see well enough to explore the yard and navigate the home. He is much more confident inside than outside and loves to play, play, play. Khaki is fantastic with other dogs. He’d be fine as the only pup in a home, but he sure wouldn’t mind a playful buddy. Khaki is working on potty training and seems like a fast learner. He’s figuring out it’s OK to be in a crate and has been introduced to walking on a leash. Khaki would love a person who is home most of the day. He is very happy being a lapdog and enjoys being held, but is also fine exploring on his own. He sleeps all night in his crate and is just the happiest, sweetest little guy. Khaki is being fostered in the St. Louis area.  ##2353515##

Story
Meet Cassie, a gentle and serene 15.5-year-old Havapoo seeking a forever home where she can thrive in her golden years. Cassie is a sweet and calm 8 pound companion, perfect for a quiet and laid-back household. While she may not be overly affectionate, she appreciates a peaceful environment and will happily co-exist with her owners. Due to her advanced age, Cassie has lost most of her teeth, but her one remaining tooth still shines bright! Her dental situation doesn't slow her down, and she's still enjoying life. Cassie's caregivers have discovered that she's not a fan of crates, but she sleeps soundly in a comfortable x-pen. Within the pen, she's remarkably tidy, keeping her bed dry and using pee pads with ease. With patience and consistency, her new owners can continue to help her maintain good habits. Her groomer reports that her coat is in good condition, and her recent blood work results are reassuringly good. However, she does have the typical senior arthritis in her back legs, which may require some extra care and accommodations. Additionally, Cassie has some trouble hearing and has developed cataracts in her eyes. Recently, she was treated for ear infections, and her caregivers will provide more information on her treatment and any ongoing needs. Despite these challenges, Cassie remains a loving and gentle soul, looking for a home that will provide comfort, understanding, and gentle care. If you're willing to offer a peaceful and loving environment, Cassie promises to bring serenity and companionship into your life. Cassie's $100 adoption fee helps cover her medical expenses. She is spayed, microchipped, current on vaccines, and utd on flea/tick/heartworm prevention. If you're ready to welcome Cassie into your heart and home, please apply at gfrpets.org ##2290908##
