Story
Dakota is a handsome name, kind of a "rugged" kind of name, right?? I am kind of a REFINED RUGGED kind of boy! For instance, I am a busy boy, I love playing and running with my doggy friends, however, I can lay at your feet very sweetly to beg for your attention. I am kind of like a "reverse" planter as well. I mean, you plant it and i will un-plant it for you :D I won't do it often, just when I want your attention and I am outside alone. So see?? you have great control over that urge! So I am a food and toy lover too, I eat out of a slow feeder bowl because wolfing down my food is not an option! I am learning all things toys and am actually learning how to bring the ball BACK after you throw it. I am a smart and very sweet boy. I do absolutely have a prey drive so no kitties for small furry mammals around me please. I am fully potty trained and great in a crate. Now i just need you to adopt me to complete my circle of life. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Finnegan is a smart energetic dog looking for a family ready to continue his training.  As an Akita/German Shepherd mix, Finnegan is a working dog with a strong protective drive. He loves to be outside, playing and roughhousing with his canine friends.  Finnegan is looking for an active home where he can direct his energy toward mental and physical activities and exercise. He gets along well with both dogs and cats in his foster home, and would likely do well with older children.  If you have experience with working breeds like Akitas and are ready to guide Finnegan through consistent obedience training, he is ready to be a devoted pet who will love and protect you! Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 12-4 pm at 372 Townline Road in Mundelein, IL 60060 to meet our adoptable animals in person. Follow us on Facebook for additional updates and sneak peeks of new dogs!  https://www.facebook.com/reachrescue ##1985399##

Born: October 21, 2023 I'm 55lbs, and I am looking for my forever home. Adoption Donation: $450 Meet Bingo! This sweet and loving dog is ready to bring joy to her forever home. Bingo is wonderful with people, dogs, and kids, but she would thrive best in a cat-free environment. She’s had fun at doggy daycare and got along great with her furry friends. Bingo is a smart girl who already knows commands like “sit” and “shake” and is eager to learn more. She’s making great progress with house training and is fully crate-trained. Whether she’s playing in the snow, snuggling on the couch, or enjoying her favorite toys, Bingo’s playful and affectionate nature shines. She’s also easygoing when it comes to baths, brushing, and walks on her leash. Bingo would make an incredible addition to any family. Start your New Year off right and check “find the perfect dog” off your resolutions list by welcoming Bingo into your home!

Story
Introducing Sedona: Energetic and Loyal Companion Seeking Her Forever Home Here is what her best friend Susie has to say about her! "I have walked Sedona in the forest preserve a few times a week for the last few months, so I feel like I have gotten to know her pretty well. She is high energy, but she is not hyper. Of course when I come to get her, she is very excited, but she does calm down within a few minutes. By the time we get to my jeep, she hops right in. She gets tethered in (which she's very cooperative about), and she is well behaved on the short drive to the forest preserve. She walks pretty well on the leash-I'd give her a B. She mostly doesn't pull, but if she sees a squirrel or bird she sometimes does. She goes whatever pace I go at-including plodding. When we see another dog there, she seems curious, but that's about it. Every few minutes I say "Sedona, and she knows that she needs to come beside me and sit and then she gets a treat. She does this every single time I say her name. So I know that she is focused. Although I can only speak to when I am with her, I have never heard her bark-not at another animal or to see me or to go for a ride. Not one woof. Of course this is outside the shelter setting. Sometimes I bring a brush. We take a break during her walk and I brush her, and she cooperates. The thing that I love the most about her is that she is always cheerful. Despite being in her run, she never seems down in the dumps. What she really needs is someone to give her a chance to show the dog she is beyond the first moments, where she is just super excited to meet you." Meet Sedona, a stunning 1-year-old Husky/German Shepherd mix with an adventurous spirit and a heart full of love! 💖 Sedona came to us from the Anti-Cruelty Society, where she has been patiently waiting for her perfect home for nearly 4 months. Sedona can become overstimulated in a kennel environment, so we're eager to find her a loving foster or FURever home as soon as possible. Although she's reported to co-exist with other dogs, we're still learning more about her compatibility with canine companions. 🐶 This high-energy girl would be over the moon to join a family that can take her on outdoor adventures and provide her with a secure, fenced yard. 🌳 With her enthusiasm for life, Sedona requires a dedicated person to invest time and energy into her training, helping her learn to focus and channel her energy. Sedona may appear independent at first, but she warms up quickly and will soon become your loyal companion. Don't be surprised if she becomes your devoted shadow, always eager for your love and attention! 💕 If you think you could be the perfect match for our beautiful Sedona, please get in touch with us! Let's help this sweet girl find the loving home she deserves. 🏡
