My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Malachi, a super affectionate, cuddly, and playful one-year-old with a heart as big as his personality! This lovable guy absolutely lives for belly rubs and will melt your heart with his snuggles. He’s not only a goofball who loves to play fetch—he’s also lightning-fast when he’s in full chase mode! Whether he’s zooming around or curling up for a nap, Malachi’s infectious joy will bring a smile to everyone around him.

Malachi is an excellent listener and walks beautifully off-leash. He's fully off-leash trained, making him the ideal companion for hikes, adventures, and park visits. He loves being with both humans and fellow dogs, and he’s got a special talent for forming deep bonds with his canine friends. He’s also fond of cats, though he may still occasionally chase them, so a home with a cat who’s confident and tolerant would be ideal.

This social butterfly is great with kids over 5-years-old—he's very friendly and can greet them with an affectionate bop of his nose. He’s always ready for a car ride and makes an excellent travel buddy. Malachi is one of those rare dogs who’s fun, charismatic, and truly enjoys every moment of life.

Malachi has come such a long way with his training and is now the perfect little guy. He’s playful, full of love, and has absolutely no issues—he’s ready to give you a lifetime of laughter, cuddles, and joy. If you’re looking for a dog who will fill your home with energy and affection, Malachi might just be the one for you. Come meet him and see if you’re the forever home he’s been waiting for!

More about this rescue

Rescue, Retrain, Redeem, and Re-home.
Redemption Road Rescue Rehab Inc (aka R4) is a 501(c)(3), not-for-profit organization based in Lake County, Illinois. R4 functions as an all-breed and ages, dog and cat rescue that specializes in behavioral training and rehabilitation. We are a professionally operated nonprofit dog and cat rescue run by certified dog trainers. We believe the solution to “difficult” animals cannot just be euthanasia. Our mission is to place dogs and cats that have undergone our rehabilitation program with responsible, reliable, and devoted owners. Our training specialty is centered in dog behaviors and understanding the canine mind. We take in all breeds, all ages and work with domesticated felines and feral cat colonies as well. Our expectations of adopters: 1- Consider the animal as an individual with their own personality and behaviors. 2- Be willing to learn, ask questions, and implement training into their daily routine. 3- Work alongside our team to prepare their home to provide the best environment for their new family member. R4 is 100% volunteer-run and foster-based and relies on donations, fundraisers, grants, and sponsorships to allow our organization to fulfill our mission to animals in need.
