Story
Hi! My name is Max. I was found dumped in the woods in rural WV. I am an extremely sweet boy who likes to snuggle. I am kind of shy and timid, especially at first but I am an easy going boy and will just curl up and hide when I need a break. I am good with other dogs, people, and cats. I am currently living with two toddlers who make me a little nervous but it’s because I am still trying to there them out. I would love a fenced yard and another confident doggy friend to show me the ropes! I am up to date on vaccines and will be neutered and microchipped soon by the rescue. Currently in WV but can be transported by amazing volunteers to my perfect match!

Story
Hi, I’m Ruby! I was rescued after being dumped in the rural WV woods and left to try and survive on my own. I am a super sweet girl who is a little timid. I am so sweet but still learning life. I would love to have a confident doggy friend and a fenced yard to romp around in. A doggy friend will help me build the confidence I need. I am pretty easy going and like to curl up on the couch with you. I am good with other dogs, cats, and I am currently living with two toddlers. I am good with them but they make me a little nervous and I sometimes will hide when it’s too much. I am up to date on vaccines and will be spayed and microchipped by the rescue soon! I am currently in WV but can be transported by amazing volunteers to you!

Story
Amber first arrived to CRA with her litter of puppies, there after referred to as the Seinfeld litter. They have all since been adopted and while Ambers original family wanted to keep her, it ended up not working out and now shes in the market for her own happily ever after. Amber is a small terrier mix with lots of youthful energy left to entertain you. She is also, without any doubt, a chihuahua mix. She does not sell herself well and she gives absolutely zero craps about it because she knows her foster mom will continue to let her live rent free forever anyways. (Side note from her foster mom: shes holding me hostage please send help.) Amber is v sus about strangers and would prefer it if you just didnt perceive her at all because quite honestly its criminal that people should expect to just be in her presence for free without paying some kind of toll or subscription. Once she stops being a diva, shes actually a pretty chill little psych ward escapee. She has an olympic medal in zoomies (dont ask to see it though, just take us at our word please). Shes cute as heck and soft like a bunny. She loves trashy TV and talking crap about you co-workers with you. Amber is also a very accomplished body guard and does not stand for people hurting those whom she has decided to tolerate. Have you ever wondered what your dog would do if someone broke into your house? You dont need to worry what Amber would do, cuz Ill tell you. Shell open up a full can of chihuahua sass on any unsavory visitors and make sure they think twice before crossing you again. For this reason, wed like to avoid putting her in a home with children. Mostly because were pretty positive shed teach them about arson and pirating music and how to open a dog crate without using any opposable thumbs and sneak out of the house without being caught and we dont want to be responsible for the corruption of your family dynamic. Amber gets along with other chill dogs and has a very you stay out of my way and Ill stay out of yours mentality. That said, she does not do well with barriers and gets extra spicy when she cant properly sniff a butt. For this reason also wed love to see her land somewhere with a yard that allows her to not have to be denied butt sniffing due to leash restraints and distance. Shed love to meet you and extort you for all the treats in your possession. Shes perfectly imperfect but also at the same time exactly who she was meant to be, and we love that for her. Dont pass on this sass! Shes worth it! Amber's adoption fee includes her up to date vaccines and preventatives, heartworm negative, spay, and microchip. If you are interested in being considered for Amber and live within 3 hours of Chicago, please apply directly. If you have any questions before applying please email adopt@chicagorescueauthority.org. If you are viewing from adopt-a-pet to be considered a potential home for this dog please head to our website www.chicagorescueauthority.org and click on our adopt tab to apply directly!

Story
Taco is the best! He's full of so much life and so much energy. He's always up for going outside to play and loves when other dogs are around. His ideal scenario is having a backyard to run around in and having other dogs around to play with. He's incredibly social with other dogs and children. He's the greatest dog on earth to play fetch with. You can throw the tennis ball with him for hours and he'll bring it back to you each time (but for some reason wants you to take it out of his mouth lol). If you're someone who wants companionship or a dog that gives you an excuse to stay active each day, Taco's your guy. It breaks me that I can't keep Taco anymore, but I'm on the road 2-3 times a month for work and am usually distracted with work even when I'm home. It's not right and Taco deserves someone who can give him the time and attention he deserves. He's well trained, housebroken and listens well. (Note: We're in NYC)

CHARACTERISTICS Friendly, Affectionate, Gentle, Loyal, Playful, Smart, Funny, Loves kisses HOUSE-TRAINED Yes HEALTH Vaccinations up to date, spayed / neutered. PREFERS A HOME WITHOUT Other dogs. Meet Mustang (Partial SPONSORSHIP)! Hi! Thank you for visiting my profile! Mustang can be a bit shy at first. Once she gets to know you get ready for snuggles, belly rubs and lots of love. You can get to know her by tossing treats away from you, then allowing her to come to you for more treats. She also has been working on "sit" so give that a try too! She is fully potty trained. Oh and she wants us to make sure to include that she loves belly rubs-have we mentioned that yet? If a night of snack, snuggling and sitcoms is your thing - we may be a perfect match! Our love bug's adoption fee is $300 which includes being fully vetted, spayed, microchipped and fecal exam. Mustang is 5 years old and petite weighing 33lbs (fully grown). All we can say is Mustang is a ray of sunshine 24/7! Her birthday is 1/14/19. Note: All dogs require a $100 training deposit. Once confirmation of the completion of a training class has been sent to the rescue, you will receive your deposit back in full. As we are a rescue all of our adult dogs/puppies for adoption must be spayed or neutered. Although we make every attempt to have this done before finding their adoptive families, this is not always possible. Please speak with your adoption coordinator to see of this service has already been performed or they will explain to you if your new dog/puppy will need this service while in your care at no cost to you. When emailing please include your phone number to help speed up the adoption process. Also, for the safety of our dogs we only adopt within a 2 hour radius of Joliet, Illinois, to allow our volunteers to do home checks if necessary.
