Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Dasher is a Pointer/Border Collie mix! From his foster mom! "Dasher is such a sweetheart. He plays hard and cuddles harder. He loves playing tug with the other dog in the house and will take any cuddles he can get. He's amazing with kids. Crate training is a dream and potty trained. The way he poses makes me feel like he should have a glass of whiskey and a cigar in front of him! He will make a great family dog! No cats, he likes to chase them.

Story
Billie is an adorable young mix, thought to be a Pointer/Aussie/Lab mix. She’s about 44 lbs, a bit on the lean side currently. And estimated at 4 years old. Billie joined us from a very horrible neglectful situation. She along with eight other dogs was rescued from a trailer, after the owner of the trailer was taken to a mental health facility. All dogs were starved; two were starved to death. Billie was one of the survivors, but barely so. She was skin and bones when joining our rescue program….and a look of hopelessness filled her eyes. During the last several weeks that Billie has been in her BAARK foster home, she has made notable progress, gaining weight, looking better, feeling more confident, and showing us some pep in her step! She’s even starting to play with other dogs. An ideal home and family for Billie is one who can understand her past and give her the time and space she needs to continue to build her confidence, and blossom into a loving, playful girl that she deserves to be. Good nutrition is very important given her past. Billie obviously is good with other dogs but the preferred home for Billie would be as an only dog, or with another calm friendly dog. She’d love a secure fenced yard where she could run, play, and exercise. She is scared of quick movements at this time, so smaller children would likely be overwhelming to her; older children should be fine. If you would like to consider Billie for a member of your family, please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or 847-852-0895. Note that BAARK is located in the NW Suburbs of Chicago and adopts local to our area.

Story
Click here for Ned's Facebook Album 12-14-2024: Please meet sweet, adorable Ned!! He is an owner surrender twice and we are on a quest to find him the best adoptive home. He is so charming, friendly and thankfully confident, not having suffered any abuse- just a little vetting neglect. Ned is about 18 months old and is already neutered and up to date on his vaccinations. We still need to do our obligatory blood work and get him microchipped. Ned is only 40lbs but he will need some basic obedience training as he is wired to pull a sled on a walk. We haven't tested his nose for birds, but hopefully soon. He was working on house training before he came to us. He is brilliant about jumping into a cage in a car which is helpful. What a magnificent little Pointer.

Story
Lulu is a Pointer (English) and not a German Shorthaired Pointer-- they are similar but different. I add GSP to give our Pointers a little more exposure. Click here for Lulu's Facebook Recovery Album March 2, 2025: Lulu has been doing well in foster care, eating well, living indoors and wearing 1 or 2 coats when she goes outside. She's also made a few doggie friends. Next step is her spay in a few weeks; we wanted to put a few more pounds on her and also treat her Rocky Mountain spotted fever a little bit longer prior to any surgery. She loves her cage as that is her safe place and while she doesn't have a lot of freedom in the house, house-training is going pretty well. The perfect home for Lulu would have a confident easy going dog buddy and I'm not sure about small kids. She is a little 24lb pocket Pointer that is so happy to be off the chain she was on in Texas and has the cutest little personality to match. She is such a sweet little bouncy dog and we hope we can find her the bestest family. February 2025: In early February I got a voice mail from a man that was desperate to help a little Pointer he befriended on some hunting grounds in West Texas. Kevin is a volunteer with Above and Beyond English Setter rescue and was on vacation hunting over his adopted English Setter when he met a little Pointer that was with a string of dogs. He learned that her owner just wanted to give her away as he had too many, he didn't hunt over her, etc and Kevin knew she didn't have a happy life. While A&BESR couldn't bring her into their program, they did have my phone number and once Kevin and I connected, we came up with a plan. After a bit of drama with the owner, Kevin did take ownership of little "Lulu" our name as she didn't have one, and Kevin brought her back to Georgia where we made arrangements to have her be boarded and her medical care up to date. She flew into the Chicago area with the help of 2 Pilots N Paws volunteers. Lulu weighed in at 21lbs upon arrival to the vet-- hence the term "Pocket Pointer" a little peanut you can put in your pocket. While in boarding for a week, she gained a pound. Thankfully she is heartworm negative. We are looking for a foster or foster to adopt home for her in the Chicago area with a safe fenced in yard.
