AVAILABLE SOON! I haven’t arrived at the adoption center just yet - I’m getting ready for adoption! Please fill out an adoption application if you’d like to meet me once I’m available. I'm 12 lbs., and I am looking for my forever home. Adoption Donation: $550 Meet Willow! This beautiful Shih Tzu is on the hunt for her forever home, and she’s ready to steal hearts. Willow is truly one of the sweetest pups you’ll ever meet; gentle, loving, and great with kids of all ages as well as other dogs. She’s house- and crate-trained, making her an easy addition to any home. Willow enjoys car rides, spa days in the tub, and getting brushed like the little princess she is. Vet visits? No problem at all; she handles them like a pro. Willow also knows the commands “sit” and “off,” showing off her smart and eager-to-please side. When she’s not charming everyone she meets, you’ll find her cuddled up on a squishy bed, soaking in the cozy life. She also has a goofy, playful side that’s guaranteed to keep you smiling. If you’re looking for the perfect all-around companion, Willow is your girl. All dogs are microchipped, neutered, current on all vaccines, heartworm tested (if age appropriate), and up-to-date on preventatives at the time of adoption. All household members and any dogs from the household need to be present to be able to adopt. A photo ID will be required at the time of adoption. Appointments are recommended. All applications are considered general. Specific animals are NOT put on hold for adoption. When you visit, our adoption counselors will be able to make suggestions based on the type of pet you are looking for and help you find the best fit for your family.

Story
Iggy is a sweet little guy, a Shih Tzu / Toy Poodle Mix, weighing in at about 9 lbs. He is thought to be 5 years old. Iggy is an absolute perfect boy. He loves everyone. And also really enjoys being with dogs his own size; larger dogs may scare him. He is playful and active, loving and cuddly. His favorite activities including playing with toys, fetching and chasing toys for hours, leash walking (harness please!) and hanging out with his people and other small dogs. An ideal family for Iggy is one with plenty of time to spend with him! And, a willingness to buy him plenty of new toys! A moderately active household appears idea for Iggy’s balance of playfulness and calm. Small dog experience is important for an awareness of the challenges facing small dogs (coyotes, hawks, easily escaping). A secure fenced yard (above ground) is also a big advantage. Iggy is fully vetted and in overall good health. However he may be slightly visually impaired but you’d never know it. He has recently visited an ophthalmologist and currently requires eye drops…which he is not too happy about. If you are interested in adding Iggy to your family, please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or call 847-852-0895. NOTE that BAARK is located in the NW Suburbs of Chicago, and adopts only local to our area.

Story
Meet Marci! Marci is one unique pup, but her uniqueness is what makes her so loveable! The first thing you`ll notice about Marci is her fur; in truth, she is more floof than dog. However, her most unique feature is what we call her `chicken wing.` She was born with a deformed front right leg, but you won`t see it slow her down. She chases after her friends with no issue, and when she runs, she turns into a blur of black fur with a big open smile. She`s guaranteed to make anyone laugh. Come down to HP to schedule an appointment, and get ready to fall in love with Marci`s infectious energy!D.O.B: 7-26-25
