Story

*Hank is part of our Take Time to Fall in Love Promotion. See our Adoption Procedures page for more details.* I was removed from a neglect situation with another dog so yes life wasn’t really fun and there was obviously not much love. Here I can be a little timid at first but as one of the Canine Care staff members described me, once I am out, I am like a big baby, climbing into your lap and soaking up all the loving and attention I am getting. They are also introducing me to toys and they look fun though I’m still not quite sure what to do with them. I’ll chase them and then run back to the dog walker for some more petting. Guess what, some may have thought I was not good with other dogs but let me tell you something, I am actually doing pretty well some of the doggies in play groups here. We are just having fun like kids would at recess. (Of course, this still means that I may not like every single dog) So if you have a dog, why don’t you bring him in so we can meet and see how we may do together.

Story

*Royal is part of our Take Time to Fall in Love Promotion. See our Adoption Procedures page for more details.* I am also the featured pet on Save-A-Pet's Woof-derful Wednesdays weekly feature! #woofareyouwaitingfor Things I love: people, tennis balls, running outside, blankets, rolling in the grass, treats and more. I’m a very handsome guy, always ready to flash you one of my “signature” smiles. While I may be a little shy meeting some new people, a couple of treats is all it takes to become great friends. I am also pretty smart, and ready to learn more. I am very affectionate and a real cuddler. At night, I sleep deeply and snore loudly I’m told. This just means that I had an active day filled with a lot of loving and play time.

Story

*Wendy is part of our Take Time to Fall in Love Promotion. See our Adoption Procedures page for more details.* Sit, down and paw, come…can I learn more? I am an active girl and I enjoy a nice game of fetch. When someone is getting ready to take me out, I can sometimes get excited but then calm down as they put the harness on me. Going for a long walk is fun. I also love water so bath time is always a special moment with staff. They can pick me up, even carry me like a big baby. I enjoy all this extra attention, you know the massage and shampooing. While not mandatory, a fenced-in yard would be awesome so I can run around. I like to keep fit so an active person would be awesome but most importantly, I want to be loved. Guess what, some may have thought I was not good with other dogs but let me tell you something, I am actually doing pretty well some of the doggies in play groups here. We are just having fun like kids would at recess.

Story

*Espresso is part of our Take Time to Fall in Love Promotion. See our Adoption Procedures page for more details.* I don’t need no strong coffee to get going in the morning! I’ve got plenty of happy energy to share. I love big toys, those big balls that you can push around or the lighter ones that you can bump up in their air with your nose. I’ve also perfectioned not only the tail wag but the whole body wave because I’m always so happy when I get loving from people. Now, no worries, I could definitely sleep in too. After all, some days, you just have to take it slow. Guess what, some may have thought I was not good with other dogs but let me tell you something, I am actually doing pretty well some of the doggies in play groups here. We are just having fun like kids would at recess.

*Lucky Logan is part of our Take Time to Fall in Love Promotion. See our Adoption Procedures page for more details.* I lived with a dog and my family said I did well with them. I am playful and I love water. People here are making me blush, from being called the cutie of the day and another person saying that she fell absolutely in love with me because I’m one of the friendliest dogs she has ever met and that I love to give kisses. What can I say?

Story

Lady Nala you gorgeous girl! She is around 6-years-old, fully vetted, chipped and up-to-date on vaccines. She loves attention, toys to play with, and a cozy home to lay her head down and relax in. Nala takes her time getting to know a new person, but warms up quickly and is all smiles afterwards. Watch a video of this happy girl in action here: https://bit.ly/lady-nala-video Abandoned in boarding by an owner that never came back for them, Nala and brother Yeti spent a year living in at a kennel. Though they were fortunate to be loved and well cared for there, boarding can never replace a true forever home. Now, with Yeti recently adopted, it's sweet Nala's turn to find her perfect family! We are still getting to know Nala, but her personality is showing lots of smiles and sass! She's a spunky girl that struts when she walks and would make a fantastic hiking or camping partner. She loves chasing tennis balls, so an active family with a fenced in backyard would be ideal. With other dogs, she can be a tad bossy and independent, so a home where she is the only dog or a furry housemate that wouldn't mind her being in charge would be great. Either way, her big smile will brighten any home she enters! To learn more, please contact us by directly by calling 847-338-3252 or emailing info@redemptionroadinc.org.

Looking for a big bundle of love and energy? Say hello to Paris, a charismatic two-year-old Staffordshire Terrier-Labrador Retriever mix who's ready to bound into your life and heart!

This energetic fellow thrives on companionship and would make a fantastic partner for an active household. He gets along swimmingly with other high-energy dogs, making him a great playmate for canine siblings. While he does tend to chase cats, he could live with one with proper introductions and training.

His puppy-like enthusiasm means he still has some learning to do though. He'd benefit from an owner who is willing to continue his training and provide the mental stimulation and physical activity he craves. Paris is the perfect blend of playful and affectionate. His zest for life is infectious, and he's ready to fill your days with fun, love, and maybe a few slobbery kisses.
