Story
Introducing BOGIE, a Bichon Frise & Shih Tzu cross breed who is just over a year old, weighing approximately 12 pounds. Bogie is a very sweet boy that was rescued from a puppy-mill breeder when he was “too old” to sell. While in foster care these past few months, Bogie has learned what love and kindness is and now seeks it out from his foster mom. Bogie does not have a mean bone in his body and really craves a gentle touch/pet because he finally feels safe. Bogie now follows his foster mom around, especially when outside in the yard, and feels safe enough to come when called. He has even started playing and having fun, doing the “zoomies” in the yard, and truly looking so happy. This past month Bogie has decided it's pretty comfy to lay on his foster mom’s stomach while she watches T.V.. His recovery from his horrible first year of life has been remarkable and we are so happy for him. Because Bogie can be skittish, he requires a calm household, securely fenced yard and another friendly dog in the home who will continue to mentor Bogie’s rehabilitation. He is approved for adult households. Bogie enjoys the companionship of other dogs but more importantly he gets his confidence from them, learning more typical dog behavior. Bogie has good home manners and is housebroken. He is such a great little dog whose future is so bright! This dog has been examined by a licensed veterinarian, provided vaccines, been dewormed, tested for diseases, neutered, and microchipped. Our online application is not functioning currently; therefore ADOPTION APPLICATIONS are available upon request from acaringplace@comcast.net.   We apologize for the inconvenience. A Caring Place - All Breed Dog Rescue adopts throughout the Greater Chicagoland Area. All dogs and puppies live in foster homes, providing you as the adopter, with information on the animal's behaviors, needs, and requirements. We are always in search of fosters care providers. If you are one of those special people willing to open your heart and home to an animal in need and would like to receive information on how you can foster an animal, please contact us.     November 3, 2024, 3:29 pm

Story
Cheesecake is a young man that was surrendered to Mag Mutts from a breeding operation. This 'dish' is a little guy, born 2/20/2024 making him approximately 9-10 months old and weighing about 15lbs.   Cheesecake is more brave when he has a buddy, so another playful, active dog in the home is required. He prefers women and will warm up to them more so than men. A fenced yard is also required for his safety.   House training is going well when kept on a schedule and he is also doing well with walking on a leash. He has not been around small children, so kids in the home  should be 6+ years old and have the ability to understand that he will need extra time to warm up and that fast movements and loud noises may startle him.   We recommend obedience training for all pups and dogs!        **Breed or size (once fully grown) is a 'best guess' and is not guaranteed since they arrived into rescue without either parent. **Magnificent Mutts is an all foster home based rescue and meets are held by appointment with the entire family in attendance. Please ensure your current pets are up to date with vetting, have landlord/HOA approval and are prepared to take your new family member home at the adoption appointment.  Thank you for your interest!                                      If you are interested in adoption, please complete the "Application to Adopt" which can be accessed from this link: (       www.magnificentmutts.org )  No phone calls please, emails only. Adoption donations range between $360-$400 (cash only), unless otherwise noted. Prices are subject to change, please contact for specific adoption donation.      Please visit www.magnificentmutts.org for the online dog application. December 18, 2024, 1:24 pm

Story
Sweet Potato is a 7 year old, 12 pound, Shih Tzu with a sweet and curious demeanor! She does great with the other dogs in her foster home and would probably do just fine with cats, too. She hasn't met any children yet and we suspect she'd be shy at first meeting. She's still getting used to her new surroundings and decompressing in her foster home but, so far, she's very happy to spend time in her pen which is her safe space. She uses potty pads when needed in her pen, but she's also doing great with potty training and getting used to the routine! Sweet Potato is quiet and observant, watching what her foster family does. She enjoys exploring the house and yard and though she's shy with people at first, she takes comfort in other dogs. She would love to have a dog buddy to show her the ropes in her forever home! She is hoping her adopter will also be patient as she warms up, and help her get used to thinks like walking on a leash. Her big eyes and swaying tail will draw you in, and her silly sploots will have you hooked! If you'd like to give Sweet Potato the good life for the rest of her days, be sure to let us know by submitting an application! Sweet Potato's adoption fee is $600

Story
Let us introduce you to sweet, senior girl, Auttie.Somewhere around 10 yrs old this little lady loves attention from the humans in the house and a nice, soft dog bed. A leisurely walk is pretty good too. A great houseguest, Auttie is house trained, does well in a crate, though doesn`t need one and rarely ever barks. Other dogs in the house? She`s ok with that though wants to nap near them as opposed to play.When Auttie came to Second City she was in rough shape. A good groom, medical attention and loving care from her foster family and she is now ready to find her forever home to relax in. Auttie is a love eager to embrace life to the fullest despite some medical issues. Her greatest wish is to live out her life with someone special. If you`re ready to welcome a loyal and loving companion who will light up your days, Auttie would love to meet you.Interested in adopting this dog? Visit our website (http://www.SecondCityCanineRescue.org) to fill out an application and to find out where this dog may be shown this weekend.We love our dogs.
