Story
Meet Skunk! Skunk is a lovable snuggle bug ready to find his forever home! This sweet pup is learning the ropes of what's okay to chew on, so patience and guidance will help him thrive. Skunk adores his doggy friends and is best suited for a home without cats or small animals. A food enthusiast, he's highly motivated by treats, making him an excellent candidate for training and learning fun tricks. While he might be a bit timid around new people at first, he'll slowly inch his way over to soak up all the love and attention he can get. If you're looking for a gentle companion who will reward your kindness with endless cuddles, Skunk is your guy! Come meet him and see the potential for a beautiful bond! Here are some words from our boy Skunk. I know my cute face is hard to resist, but here's the scoop: I'll need a lot of your time and attention as I grow up into the amazing adult dog I'm destined to be! I'm looking for a forever family that will help me with socialization, training (yes, that includes house training!), and plenty of exercise. And let's not forget the chewing and teething-I'm still learning what's okay (and what's definitely not okay) to put in my mouth. So, be ready for some puppy-proofing! Don't forget those vet visits! I'll need to stay up to date on my boosters and vaccines, which means a few trips to see my favorite vet in the first few months. But trust me, all that effort will be worth it when you experience the endless love, puppy kisses, and pure joy I'll bring into your life. So, if you're up for the challenge and the fun, why not come meet me in person? Stop by during our adoption hours. For more details, email info@ahconnects.org or give us a call at 847-697-2880 x: 0. The friendly folks here will be happy to answer all your questions! Can't wait to meet you and start our adventure together! Our dogs and puppies go home spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested (7 months and over), and up to date on core vaccines, heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives. Their adoption also includes a free-vet exam at one of our participating veterinarians. Ask fosters@ahconnects.org about fostering Skunk, while he waits for his forever home!

Meet Ross! This cool whippet was a stray turned into the city shelter. He had been there just waiting for his chance for over a month & a half. This poor guy kept getting overlooked & we will never understand why. This guy is dog & cat friendly. He is house trained, social, & once he trusts you, this guy will warm your lap for ages. He is very cuddly, sweet, & has a huge heart. This guy is a senior but don't let his age fool you, he is ready for walks on lakeshore drive this winter. He is such a sweet boy & deserves a chance. We are SO proud of him & baffled he wasn't snatched up! Adopt Ross!

Story
Meet Cassidy, the Charming Introvert! Get ready to fall in love with Cassidy, a pale white pup with captivating puppy eyes and a heart-shaped nose. Despite a challenging past where he navigated the streets and scrounged for survival, Cassidy's resilience shines through. Now, he's on a mission to find a loving home where he can feel safe and cherished. Cassidy is a dog with a gentle and timid personality. Loud noises and intense reactions make him nervous, and he prefers a calm and serene environment. He needs time to warm up to people and build trust before he feels comfortable and secure. This smart little guy knows some tricks already and is a well-mannered companion during feeding time. He's polite and respectful, showing his intelligence and willingness to please. Sitting on command is just one of the many tricks he has mastered. When it comes to relaxation, Cassidy's favorite spot is snuggled up on the couch or bed. He loves cozy naps and enjoys sleeping in when it's chilly or rainy outside. His head and ears are the sweet spots for scratches and cuddles, and he might even roll over for a belly rub! Cassidy is searching for someone who will shower him with love and understanding. While he respects cats and tolerates other dogs, he prefers his own space and will often retreat to a separate room. However, when the other dogs are not around, he comes out for attention and cuddles. He enjoys the quiet company of a select few men, seeming to have a preference for quieter individuals. It's important to note that Cassidy is not a fan of chaos, whether it's caused by humans or other dogs. He seeks a serene and calm environment where he can feel at ease. Car rides are a pleasure for him, as long as he is the sole rider and not in a crowded car with other dogs. To provide Cassidy with his ideal home, a single, quiet man with no other dogs or possibly a submissive dog that Cassidy meets and approves of would be the perfect match. An at-home social life that aligns with his introverted nature is preferable. While Cassidy tends to avoid general interaction and may not seek pets, hugs, or kisses, he has his moments of affection when he feels comfortable. Cassidy may be an introverted hermit, but beneath his reserved exterior lies a dog yearning for love and understanding. If you're someone who appreciates the quiet moments and can provide a calm and peaceful environment, Cassidy will reward you! (Only) Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX)

Story
Ever see 23 lbs of love and happiness to see you? Meet Willow! In her short 13 months on earth, Willow has survived a lifetime of hard knocks. She was found on the side of the road injured, by what is assumed to be a car accident. No owners around and needing help, Willow was picked up by the city pound.... Despite having serious injuries (2 pelvic fractures and a open ankle wound), Willow was so sweet and thankful for help, she won the attention of the staff and a spot on their Facebook page pleading for help for this gem of a gal. Willow is on the timid, submissive side, but warms up very quickly with a few sweet words of encouragement and LOVE. Through bandage changes, cleanings, shots, exams, Willow remains happy and easy going with body wags, you'd never know she has injuries! That being said she is on crate rest and meds for her injuries and is expected to make a full recovery! Yay! She loves people and other dogs and is cautiously curious about cats. In time she will be friends with them too. SO, If you are looking for a loving, happy go lucky dog, look no further. Willow is your sweetheart! She is a wonderful girl with the heart of gold you have been looking for :) Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Whippet Labrador Retriever

Female, 1 yr 10 mos

Story
Meet Sophia…. Sophia is an adorable puppy, thought to be a Whippet – Black Lab Mix; she’s petite with a dainty bone structure vs the more solid bone structure of a Lab!! She’s very smart, a quick learner, very alert and quite energetic!! At about 4 months, Sophia weighs 16 lbs. It is most important to note that we cannot be 100% sure of her adult weight, but our best guess is about 35-40 lbs. This cute pup joined BAARK from an overcrowded shelter in Kentucky earlier this year. She is thought to have been born around November 24 2022. When joining our rescue program, Sophia appeared happy, playful, and must have sensed that she was “free!” and safe!! Sophia is very sociable, outgoing, playful, and is great with dogs, but can be annoying to older, more well mannered dogs; she would be far too energetic for a senior (dog or human!) An ideal family for Sophia is one able to assimilate the energy of a puppy into their lifestyle and is willing to commit the time to working with and training Sophia to be her best self! A fenced yard is ideal as is another younger or middle-aged pup in the family. Perhaps you’d consider adopting Sara along with Sophia…the girls are sisters!! Sophia is crate-trained and is working on good house manners (housebreaking). She is up to date on all age-appropriate vaccinations, is on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. Her spay is included in her adoption fee. For information about adding this adorable girl to your family please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or 847-852-0895.
