Story
Meet Maizy! Maizy had anonymous donor sponsor $100 and Bogie and Beanie sponsored $200. Her adoption fee has been fully covered! Albert's Dog Lounge is a specialty rescue focusing primarily on senior and special needs dogs. Meet sweet Maizy with Alberts Dog Lounge rescue. Maizy is a cute golden oldie who came to ADL almost a year ago as shy, timid girl after her family came upon hard times and had to surrender her. Maizy has now blossomed into a little social butterfly. She is both dog & and cat friendly and currently being fostered in Columbus, WI. Maizy prefers to be close to her humans, and can be vocal when you leave, so someone who is retired or works from home could be the ideal match for Maizy. A single family home would be a great set up for her. Maizy is not a big snuggle bug (yet), but she is very happy to curl up in a blanket next to you on the couch or in your bed. Do you have a place in your heart and home for dear Maizy? MORE ABOUT ME: - UTD on vaccines - Spayed - Microchipped - Housebroken - Loves to be close to her humans Good general & dental health - Non shedding - Walks great on a leash - Great with respectful dogs & cats Loves to snuggle in warm blankets **Maizy is being fostered in the Columbus, WI area Our process includes an approved application, reference checks, a homevisit, and then a meet and greet with the dog.

Story
Meet Biscuit! Biscuit is a 9-week-old Rat Terrier mix with a big personality and an even bigger heart! With her longer legs and head, she stands out from her shorter sister, but don’t let her petite size fool you—she keeps up with her larger littermates like a pro. Biscuit is a gentle soul who’s great at sharing and loves giving kisses. She adores snuggling in your lap for pets and attention. While she enjoys playing, she’s not the highest-energy pup, making her a perfect companion for someone seeking a playful yet calm addition to their family. This sweet girl is wonderful with kids and loves being held by her foster family's 9-year-old son. She also enjoys meeting new people, greeting everyone with her quiet charm. Biscuit plays well with the big adult dogs in her foster home but prefers to keep her distance when they get overly excited. Biscuit is already used to pee pads and chooses to use them consistently. She’s not a big chewer but has a soft spot for freeze-dried lamb lung treats. Grooming and care are a breeze with Biscuit—she’s excellent during nail trims, baths, and when receiving medications. She’s just beginning to explore the world of leash walking and is getting used to short outdoor adventures. Biscuit is ready to find a loving home where she can flourish and share her affectionate nature. Are you ready to make Biscuit a part of your family? Illinois law requires that all of our dogs and puppies be spay/neutered within 14 days of a veterinarian deeming the dog or puppy is ready to be altered. In order to fully comply with this regulation and reduce the number of homeless dogs and puppies, we do not permit out of state adoptions of unaltered dogs or puppies. Our standard adoption fee is $375 cash or check and $385 credit card ($10 processing fee). It includes spay/neuter when age appropriate at our participating vets, age appropriate core vaccinations, fecal testing, deworming, flea and tick preventative,1st vet visit at one of our participating vets, and micro-chipping. We must have an application, conduct a phone interview, and meet your entire family to approve an adoption. Applications will not be reviewed unless fully completed. An application does not commit you to adopting and does not guarantee adoption but does allow us to begin the review process. Please email adopt@safehavendogsIL.org for an application or additional details. Please note that the breeds and sizes posted in this biography are educated best guesses and are not guaranteed. Safe Haven Dog Rescue reserves the right to refuse adoption of any dog or puppy to any applicant (adopter) for any reason.

Story
Tula is a wonderful companion who thrives on genuine connection and love. Tula has a lot of love to give and specific needs that make her an ideal companion for the right home. Her comfort with other dogs and her preference for a quieter, adult-only environment are key considerations for anyone looking to adopt her. Her playfulness and intelligence would certainly shine in a home that can provide regular mental stimulation and physical activity, such as teaching her new tricks and enjoying outdoor adventures. For Tula, potential adopters should be prepared to provide a nurturing, attentive setting where she can form strong bonds. Given her discomfort around children, a calm, stable home with one or two adults would likely be ideal. Also, the presence of another playful dog could be a great source of companionship and help her adjust to her new environment more smoothly. It's important to find the right environment for her where she can feel comfortable and happy. Fill out an adoption application to schedule your own private meet and greet with this furry friend.
