Story
My Requirements: -Kids 10 years or older-Only PetHi my name is Prince Zuko and I have spent quite a bit of time in the kennel, but I went into foster care and I have made such remarkable progress! I also have gained a great deal more confidence in myself. I am a great dog if I say so myself. I not only walk good on a leash but I love meeting people. Many times, when my foster mom takes me for a walk, I overhear people saying to her how cute I am. My favorite pastime is to either lay in the grass outside, take a nap inside or sit by her side. I am content, patient and well behaved. I am also housebroken and crate trained . I like to consider myself a champion in fetching a tennis ball. If you enjoy playing ball, I am the one for you. I love running after it and bringing back to be thrown again. Another one of my great accomplishments is the training I had. I know many commands. In addition to my looks, I think I am very smart, however, most of all I am so lovable and looking for my forever home with someone I can love. I need to be your one and only pet- the Prince of the castle. If you are looking for a cute short leg guy, come and see me. I really love children but I do prefer the older ones so over 10 sounds great.

Pretzel Needs a Foster/Adopter in Illinois Hey there, I’m Pretzel, and I’m hoping you’re the one who can change my life forever. I’m a 2-year-old Pit Bull Terrier, and I’ve been through some tough times, but my heart is still full of love, and I’m ready to share it with you! I was at a shelter in Georgia, and things were looking pretty scary for me. I was really sick with pneumonia, and my time was running out. But then something amazing happened – the kind people at Angel Dog Alliance swooped in and saved me! I got the care I needed, and I'm now ready for a foster or forever home. I'm now in Illinois with my friends from ADA! Here’s the thing: I’m looking for someone who will give me a chance to show them just how much love I’ve got to give. I’m friendly with other dogs and people, and I just love to play! I weigh about 45 lbs, so I’m the perfect size for snuggling up next to you. Why you’ll love me: I’m super sweet and full of love. I get along great with other dogs – I’d love to have a playmate! My favorite activities? Walks, cuddles, and giving you all the affection you could ever want. I’ve been through a lot, but I know my forever home is out there. Will you be the one to give me the safe, loving home I’ve always dreamed of? Whether you want to foster me for a little while or make me a permanent part of your family, I promise I’ll fill your life with joy and wagging tails. Please, take a chance on me. I’ve got so much love to give, and I can’t wait to meet you. Love,Pretzel (P.S. If you can’t foster or adopt me, please consider donating to help with my care. Every little bit helps!) ##2189410##

Story
Harry needs and adopter in California (preferable), or we can bring him to Naperville, IL for pick up. Meet Harry, the sweetest 1-year-old pittie mix who's ready to find his forever home! This gorgeous brown and white boy was found as a stray, but you’d never guess it from his sunny, affectionate personality. Harry is about 45 lbs of pure love, always eager to give kisses and lean in for a cuddle. With his soulful brown eyes, he has a way of looking at you that says, “Will you be my family?” Look at his photo with his little tongue sticking out! He is a bright and positive pup who is known for his goofiness and eagerness to please. Harry is not only great with people but gets along well with other dogs, too! Pitbulls are often misunderstood, but they’re known for their loyalty, intelligence, and incredible affection towards their families. Harry is a shining example of the best qualities in this breed — friendly, loving, and always ready to make new friends. His ideal owner would be an active individual who can provide structure and continue his training. If you’re in California, Harry is waiting for his happily-ever-after. And if you’re in Illinois, we can arrange for him to come to Naperville for a pick-up! He’s got the kind of face that melts hearts, and he’s hoping it’s yours. ##2216955##

Story
Meet Holstein, the adorable 2-year-old Pittie mix with a striking black-and-white coat that makes him look just like a little cow, hence his perfect name! Holstein has a big heart that’s as charming as his appearance. This playful pup is dog-friendly and thrives around people, always eager for attention and affection. While he hasn't had the opportunity to be tested with kids or cats, his gentle nature leaves room for a hopeful match. Holstein was rescued from the shelter when stress took a toll on him, leaving him frail and struggling to keep food down. But with loving care and lots of TLC, he’s on the mend and building back his strength. Our trainer is helping him with leash manners, so he’s already on his way to becoming the best walking buddy. While we’re not sure if Holstein is housebroken since he hasn’t been in a home setting yet, we know he’s a quick learner with lots of love to give. Holstein is neutered, healthy, and longing for a cozy home where he can finally relax. This sweet boy desperately needs a foster or adopter to help him leave the kennels behind and experience what it truly means to be part of a family. Could you be the one to give Holstein his much-needed second chance? Reach out today to foster or adopt this loving, cow-spotted pup! ##2230467##

Diamond is a sweet girl who loves getting back scratches, pets and attention. Due to unfortunate circumstances, our son cannot care for her. She plays well with other dogs and loves kids. She will go for long walks and happily greet everyone she meets! We would keep her but our dog does not do well with other dogs. The only health issue is her skin which clears up with baths and the right food. It is a heartbreaking decision to rehome her and we want to make sure she goes to a forever home.

Story
Nala is an amazing dog and her current family is heartbroken that they need to find a new home for her. Nala is a rescue from the inner city of Chicago that was in dire need of a loving family. My wife and I took her in 6 years ago in the effort to provide her with the opportunity to be happy once an for all. Unfortunately we came to find that Nala is not great with children. Once our 1st born became mobile at 1 year we notice Nala had a fixation with children. My wife and I worked and worked to fix but could not be corrected. Now that we are expecting our 2nd child we need to find a new home for her and a happy home nonetheless. Nala is 6 years old, full of love and joy. I could never of asked for a better companion. Nala is ecstatic every time you enter the room. She will go everywhere you go and be loyal to you from the day you meet her. We cannot fathom losing her but hope and wish to place her in the next best home that fits her needs because she deserve it.

Story
Introducing WILLOW, a wonderful 6 1/2 year old, 70 pound Pit Bull Terrier mix who is calm and quiet, and doesn't like a lot of commotion. She is a gentle, sweet girl who will make a great addition to most adult households. Willow's favorite time of day is when she gets to go for a long walk on the nature trail with her foster dad; she really enjoys spending that time outside, smelling the air, and watching the wildlife. In addition, Willow enjoys simply being with her person whether he's on the floor meditating or hanging out watching TV with Willow laying next to him and snuggling. Willow has good house manners and does not require crating when her foster dad leaves the house. Willow would enjoy a fenced-in yard too; she previously lived with a German Shepherd for most of her life so we think she would be OK living with another similar sized dog who is calm and easy-going. Willow is initially timid meeting new people, but once she gets to know you, she is very loyal and loving. She is approved for households with adults and children over 12 years of age. This dog has been examined by licensed veterinarians, provided inoculations, been wormed, tested for diseases, spayed, and microchipped. IF INTERESTED IN ADOPTING, please request an application by sending an email to us at acaringplace@comcast.net Unfortunately, our online application is not working properly so please do not use. We'll send a pdf to you via email for your completion. 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
