Story
Tootsey is happy trotting smushface. Talk about being greeted with a smile everyday when you come home. She is a love bug, she enjoys belly rubs and quality time. Toots girl was sadly left behind by an owner that passed from a car accident. She and her mother found shelter and safety with a foster that has tended to them for an extended period of time. This sweet girl is crate trained, walks nicely on a leash, is a friendly pup to all people. She is somewhat of a slug and little hippo. She enjoys laying around in heaps of fluff, eating yummy treats and bringing loving vibes to any home. Tootsey would love to live in a family but as an only dog or pet. She doesn’t do the best with other animals but is easy to control and would be more than happy to have a beautiful yard to herself.  Consider giving this girl that’s waited 2 long years a cozy spot on your couch.  To ask about Tootsey, please contact us directly by calling  847-338-3252  or emailing info@redemptionroadinc.org.

Story
Appa is a 2 year old Johnson american bulldog. He was born on April 1st 2023. He isn't fixed, that was planned when hes 3 years old to let his joints mature He is very goofy, playful, lots of energy and can be a cuddle bug. But he is very skittish in new environments and may need time to warm up to a new family. He does have a high prey drive so he isn't good near small animals/rodents/birds. He wont be good for houses with cats or small dogs. He could get along with dogs his size or larger. He is good around kids. He would need an experienced adopter who knows this breed well as he is very stubborn and definitely needs to learn basic training. He needs an adopter who can give him the proper training. We have to rehome him due to not being able to provide him the best home for his breed. He has bitten once and hasn't done so since.

Story
Clover is a female and is an extremely friendly, kind, smart and love bug dog.  At first I personally did not expect Clover to be such a sweetheart until I met her and got to spend time with her.   During that time we were buddies 24 hours a day.  This very sweet girl stayed with me everywhere I went and even slept in my bed with me at night, so being a 24 hour buddy is no exaggeration.  I will definitely miss this sweet heart greatly when she leaves me to go to her forever home.January 5, 2026, 11:34 am

Story
Foster Update: "Our family took Midnights into our home as a foster yesterday evening and just wanted to share an update! Midnights is the sweetest and kindest dog anyone can ask for. She is gentle around my two toddlers and loves being around my Frenchie. Everyone gets along great! Potty training is a work in progress but we are working on bringing her outside often to teach her that that is where she needs to go. She is hunger driven but we’ve been giving her more snacks and kibble so that she feels satisfied 😊 she is not aggressive with treats around my Frenchie from what I’ve observed. I am hoping someone gives her a forever home just in time for Christmas. ❤️" 🩶 The Taylor Swift Era Pack: 12 Micropittie & Bulldog Mixes Looking for Their Forever Homes 🩶 Transferred from Chicago Animal Care and Control, these 12 small-but-mighty dogs survived a hoarding situation and are now stepping into their sparkle era. Each one is about 2–3 years old, full of sweetness, and ready to trade fear for friendship, and confinement for cuddles. Like Taylor Swift’s albums, every dog here tells a story of resilience, reinvention, and love. 🐾 A Note About Hoarding Case Dogs 🐾 These pups often come from environments where human kindness was rare and routine didn’t exist. That means the world can feel new and a little big at first — but with gentle guidance, they open up in the most beautiful ways. Expect slow blinks that turn into tail wags, tentative touches that become full-body wiggles, and hearts that will love you endlessly once they trust you. 🎶 Meet the Pack 🎶 1. Taylor Swift (female) 🌸 The namesake — classic, charming, and ready to begin again. Sweet, sincere, and endlessly loving, Taylor has that wholesome “girl next door” energy. She’s curious about the world and eager to please. Personality: Playful, affectionate, and the perfect first chapter to your love story. 2. Fearless (female) 💛 Courage in a compact package. Fearless has the heart of a dreamer — she’s learning to trust fast and greet each new day with hope. Personality: Energetic, friendly, loves gentle praise and playtime. 3. Speak Now (female) 💜 Soft-spoken at first, but full of surprises once she finds her voice. Speak Now warms up slowly, but when she loves you, she really loves you. Personality: Sweet, loyal, expressive — a listener who’s also ready to sing her own story. 4. Red (male) ❤️ Passionate, goofy, and full of heart. Red wears his emotions on his sleeve — one minute zoomies, the next minute full-body hugs. Personality: Enthusiastic, snuggly, and loves people with his whole heart. 5. 1989 (female) 💎 The ultimate pop star energy. 1989 is confident, outgoing, and totally ready for her city walks and coffee shop cameos. Personality: Social, sassy, and sweet — she’s living her best main-character life. 6. Reputation (male) 🖤 Tough on the outside, soft on the inside. Reputation might seem cool and mysterious, but behind that confident face is the biggest cuddlebug you’ll ever meet. Personality: Loyal, goofy, brave — the definition of a comeback story. 7. Lover (female) 💗 The hopeless romantic. Lover is all heart — gentle, affectionate, and happiest when pressed against your side. Personality: Snuggly, soft, and ready to fill your home with love songs. 8. Folklore (female) 🌲 The quiet thinker with a poetic soul. Folklore is introspective and gentle. She prefers cozy evenings and soft voices. Personality: Calm, tender, and deeply loyal once she knows you’re her safe place. 9. Evermore (male) 🍂 An old soul with steady eyes and a big heart. Evermore is peaceful and grounding — the kind of dog who reminds you to breathe. Personality: Wise, affectionate, easygoing — perfect for a quiet, loving home. 10. Midnights (female) 💙 The mysterious dreamer. Midnights loves a cozy night in just as much as a moonlit walk. She’s equal parts playful and serene. Personality: Thoughtful, affectionate, and a little magical. 11. Tortured Poets Department (male) 🖋️ A soft-hearted soul with an artistic streak. This sensitive boy has been through a lot, but he’s ready to turn his pain into poetry — and his poetry into love. Personality: Sweet, soulful, thrives on patience and gentle affection. 12. The Life of a Showgirl (female) 💅 The diva with a heart of gold. A little glam, a little goofy, and totally irresistible — Showgirl knows she’s special, and she’ll make sure you do too. Personality: Confident, funny, affectionate — the life of every room she enters. Which era are you in?

Story
Big Mac 🐶🍔 At 10 years old, Big Mac is a gentle soul with a big heart and an even bigger capacity for love. This sweet senior pitbull came to us from CACC, and he’s more than ready to leave shelter life behind for good. Big Mac has clearly lived a life full of stories—some of them hard—but he’s not letting that hold him back. He’s soaking up every bit of kindness and comfort we give him, and he’s patiently waiting for that special someone who will see the beauty in giving a senior dog a second chance. He does have a mass that will need to be monitored, but he’s feeling good and has so much love left to give. Big Mac is calm, affectionate, and would thrive in a quiet home where he can rest easy and be treated like the loyal companion he is. Give this good boy the golden years he deserves. Big Mac is ready to be someone’s everything. ❤️🏡

Story
🐾 Meet Connie: The True House Hippo! 🐾 Connie is a 6-year-old Bulldog who has truly mastered the art of lounging, loving, and stealing hearts. She came to us from our partners at Players for Pits when a foster home wasn’t available for her, and while it’s clear she’s had a hard life, this resilient girl is ready to find her perfect forever family. Connie has some medical concerns we are actively addressing, and a few that may be ongoing, but that doesn’t stop her from being the sweetest, most affectionate girl. She is all about cozy couch cuddles, gentle snuggles, and simply being by your side. While Connie has done well in a home with other dogs, there was one incident, so we believe she may do well with the right canine companion—ideally a calmer, more easygoing dog who matches her mellow energy. ✨ Connie’s specialties include: Oversized couch cuddles and “house hippo” lounging 🛋️ Soft, affectionate snuggles 🤎 A queenly, charming presence wherever she goes 👑 Connie deserves a family who will love her unconditionally, manage her medical needs, and let her bask in all the comfort and affection she’s been waiting for. If you’re looking for a snuggle superstar full of bulldog charm, Connie is your girl!

Story
Moe is a young Boxer mix with a big personality and a loving heart. He’s potty trained, crate trained, listens well, and does great with other dogs. Moe is generally good-natured and likes to stay close to his people—he enjoys being part of whatever’s going on. Moe loves toys and snuggles and has an active, playful side that will thrive with an engaged family. He would do best in an active home that can provide structure, exercise, and continued training. Because Moe can get mouthy during play, he should not be placed in a home with small children. Moe will need an experienced dog owner. While he shows no signs of aggression in daily life, he has reacted with little warning when medications are applied to his ears or skin during treatment for infections. Outside of these situations, he is affectionate and stable. His future family should be comfortable working with a veterinarian and using management strategies for medical care. One thing to note—Moe is curious and a known countertop surfer! Food should be kept out of reach, as he won’t hesitate to help himself if given the chance. Moe is looking for a knowledgeable, active home that understands his needs and will love him for the fun, loyal companion he is. With the right fit, Moe will be a devoted sidekick ready for adventure, play, and plenty of cuddle time.   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 ##2618946##
