Shelter FAQs

CCRF was founded in 2001 to help find permanent, loving homes for homeless dogs in our city. In just over seven years, CCRF has saved the lives of over 2,000 dogs, cats, kittens and puppies. CCRF now assists the animals that are the MOST vulnerable in Midwest - the dogs and cats that are slated for euthanasia because they are too old, too young, injured, have disabilities, or have simply been overlooked for too long by potential adopters at other shelters.
Chicago, Chicago suburbs, Northern Indiana and Southeastern Wisconsin - if you do not live in these areas, please send us an e-mail at info@chicagocaninerescue.com and we will let you know if you would be able to adopt from our organization.
