![]() I am 11 weeks old, love other dogs & all people! My siblings are Brownie, Harper, Snoopy, and Jenny! I will be available for adoption on April 21st. I cannot have any visitors before April 21st. You will need to fill out an online application and receive a phone call back from a staff member that everything is ok with the application prior to April 21st. All family members and any dogs from the household need to be present at the time of the adoption. Adoption donation: $450 We open at 9 am Saturday mornings and we will be helping adoptions in the order of when they submitted an approved application to us. There will be a sign in sheet ... (Read More)on the front door at 8:30 am so that we can pull applications for the people that arrive between 8:30-9am. Again, the order in which adoptions will come in to the shelter to see any adoptable dogs or cats first thing on Saturday mornings will be as to when the application was submitted to Animal House Shelter so there is no need to come to the shelter any earlier than 8:30 to sign in. This will be the procedure for people that arrive between 8:30-9am. After 9am, on Saturday mornings it will be first come, first serve after we help all of the adoptions that signed in between 8:30-9am. Most people submit general applications to us which do not specify a name or a particular litter they are interested in so there is no way for us to know until people arrive Saturday morning at 8:30 how many people are interested in a particular litter, puppy, kitten, cat or adult dog. We always have around 300 dogs & cats available for adoption and the adoption counselors will help you to find the right companion for your family! We look forward to meeting you! All dogs are microchipped, neutered, current on all vaccines, heartworm tested and started on Tri Heart Plus & Vectra 3D.

![]() ![]() | Rescue Me ID: 18-04-15-00124Phoenix (male)
![]() Hello! This is Phoenix. We've had him for 2 years now, after rescuing him from PAWS at 4 months old. He is in perfect health, knows his commands (sit, lay down, off, go, stay, okay, etc), he's absolutely house trained with no problems ever in that department. Circumstances in our lives are forcing us to make a decision we never thought we'd be making. So here we are, trying to find a wonderful new home for this happy guy. Honestly, we don't want money, we simply want to know that he is going to a family that will love him and continue to keep him happy and healthy, instead of a shelter. He is a loving, loyal, and super energetic dog. He ... (Read More)loves nothing more than running, being chased, and chasing anything that moves (dogs, balls, frisbees, squirrels, rabbits, etc etc). He'll play fetch for days if you're up for it. We go to the dog park every day so he can get his energy out. He loves to meet every single dog and be a part of whatever pack may be forming on any particular day. He is deeply curious about everything. He is a little wary of new people--it takes him a second to submit to someone new, but once he does, he is immediately on his back and ready for a tummy rub. Once he trusts you, he will love you with every ounce of his being. Though he loves to play, he loves to snuggle and nap equally as much! His favorite thing is to curl up right next to you under a blanket, or under the sheets of your bed ;) He also loves a good body massage, as he is a ball of lean muscle! He loves attention, and is happy to just follow you around wherever you go in the hopes you might stop and give him some love. Ideally, we'd love to find him a family that will send us a few photos and videos once in a while to let us know that he is happy, loved, and living his best life, as we never thought we'd be saying goodbye to a beautiful life we rescued a few years back. Have courage and be kind--it's how we try to live our lives, and we are trying to be as courageous as possible here, because this is one of the hardest decisions we've ever had to make. Please be kind in return, and we will know that your family will be the right fit for this amazing guy. (Less) ![]() ![]() Cook County Chicago, IL 60626 MAP IT! ![]()

Bobby is extremely attentive to people and has the glossiest coat. He knows the commands sit and paw, is perfectly housebroken and quietly crate-trained. He is well-trained and well-behaved, but he gets very excited when he sees the people he loves and he does jump up. He would benefit from continued training with his new family. He could live in any number of situations, house or apartment and would be great as a running buddy. Bobby loves other dogs and is great at doggie daycare; ... (Read More)however, he's not cat-tested. He also adores people and likes when you hold his paw in yours. Bobby was found as a fly-bitten Chicago stray in July of 2017. He's been living in a loving foster home with multiple dogs since that time. Bobby is perfectly healthy, neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, micro-chipped, fecal and heartworm-tested and on preventative.

![]() ![]() | Animal ID: A180193Willow (female)
![]() Urgent! Willow needs a foster or adopter so her life will be spared. She is at a high kill shelter that is full and dogs are being killed. Willow was excited to run around and get toys. She would gallop with them in her mouth, then drop them until we threw another. Willow wasn't too interested in cuddling, just happy to be outside with the occasional drive-by for some petting. Please save her life before it's too late. Fostering is free of charge and everything is provided within a 90 mile radius of Chicago. Volunteers are willing to help with transport. ![]() ![]() Chicago Animal Care & Control not on adoption floor-must send email! Cook County Chicago, IL 60608 MAP IT! ![]()

PIease Read Before Adopting a Pointer in Illinois | |||||||||
Pointer Dogs can make good pets in Illinois if they match your IifestyIe. The English Pointer is a proud, elegant hunting dog. Pointers are good with children and devoted to their families. Pointers need to be with people and need to be socialized as puppies. Some Pointers can be skittish or aloof. Pointers need plenty of exercise and activity to be happy and healthy. This breed is best for a home with lots of open land.
