Story
Hi, my name is Gigi! I’m an Akita mix about 3 years old. I’m a very sweet girl and love to run, play, and stretch out in the sun. I really enjoy exploring my world through all its fantastic smells. Chasing small animals is always fun, so a fenced-in yard is a must to make sure I don’t get carried away. Slow introductions are best for me, as I can be a little timid with strangers, but once I’ve warmed up to you, I can be your best pal, whether playing outside or hanging around on the couch. If you give me belly rubs, I’ll be your friend forever! My foster brother and I have a great time playing with each other, and I get along with other dogs once I get to know them. I’m looking for a loving, patient family that can help me grow and build my confidence by gently introducing me to new environments and experiences. Can you be my forever home? *** We have no idea why she’s been waiting so long. She is obviously gorgeous and sweet! She is a careful girl but loves her people fiercely! She is more nervous around new men, but warms up fine as she looooooves her foster dad so much. She is an active girl and loves to run and play with other dogs. In fact, she tends to do best with other dogs around because they help her feel more confident and secure. This pretty girl needs nothing but a little patience and love. If interested in meeting Gigi, fill out an application today! https://www.jotform.us/form/43196636952162Thank you for your interest in adopting a pet from Guardians of the Green Mile Inc. We are a group of individuals that have come together to save the lives of animals that are in danger of being euthanized. We raise funds to fully vet the animals and to provide them with a stable home until they are adopted. All of the dogs in our Rescue are in Foster homes while they are looking for their forever family. The only time we put a dog in boarding is for a Foster to go on vacation if another Foster is not able to care for them. We appreciate your taking the time to fill out the application to adopt one of our Guardians of the Green Mile pets. The questions that we ask are to only find the right fit for all of our dogs and the families that will be adopting them. Adoption donation is $300.00 for dogs over 1 year old and $350 with a $50.00 spay / neuter deposit for puppies/dogs under 1 year old.

Story
Maple is an approximately 10 month old Akita (mix?). Maple is a very sweet girl that can be shy and reserved with new people. She needs an owner committed to providing her with positive reinforcement and experiences moving forward. She is petrified of cats, and stays out of their way, so we are thinking she would be fine in a home with kitties. She has done well on pack walks with other dogs but doesn't always love them in the household when they attempt to play, etc. so she may do best without dogs or with another relaxed and confident, dog friendly dog. She seems to be house trained, crate trained, and rides well in the car. We think small children would be too much for her. Her adoption fee is $150 and includes her spay, microchip, vaccinations and negative heartworm test. Please call 630-553-9256 or email animalcontrol@Kendallcountyil.gov for more information on starting the adoption process.

Story
Meet Bear! Bear spent his whole life with a family. Unfortunately he was hit by a car and his family couldn’t afford the care needed to save him. A shelter stepped up to do the surgery, but in an overcrowded shelter, healing was not going well. Bear was pulled by Traveling Tails and has been in a foster home in Indianapolis ever since. Bear is a one-year-old handsome Husky mix with eyes that will melt your heart. He weighs 53 lbs. He has the Husky personality – playful, friendly and super-smart. I have been fostering Bear for about 3 months as he recovers from a broken leg after being hit by a vehicle. It has been a (need an adjective here-what kind of journey) journey and he has been amazing through all of it. Bear wants to be with his people - he will follow you from room to room or stay by your side when working or watching TV. He will let you know when he wants to play, go out to potty or just needs some loving. When he wants loving, he with just lay on you or at least try. None of these behaviors are all the time.  He definitely has energy that will only get greater as his mobility improves. Bear will thrive with an active family.  He loves human interaction and should not be left alone for long periods of time every day.  He would be best suited for a family who will regularly take him for hikes and walks in parks. He travels in cars well. A secure yard is a must.  Bear would enjoy time outside, playing fetch with his family.  Bear is currently afraid of moving vehicles, especially trucks, so the ideal home would be on a quiet street.  Patience will be required at first – gradually increasing activity as Bear regains strength and mobility in his injured Bear is up to date on vaccines, neutered, and microchipped. As his leg continue to heals, a team of doctors is closely watching to see if an amputation will be necessary instead of their current plan. We are seeking a special needs adopter for Bear. Vetting will be covered by the rescue until medically cleared by the vet when he is healed. He is currently in Indianapolis but can be transported to his perfect adopter.

Story
Hi! I'm Rowdy. I'm a sweet boy who has had a rough start. I was adopted and returned twice to the shelter until I was pulled by TTDR to their husky loving foster. I love to play with other dogs and I am doing much better in a home with people who understand my breed. I would do great with an active family who has another dog. I am neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines. I am currently in foster near Indianapolis, but can be transported to an approved foster or adopter. I can't wait to meet you!
