Female, 4 yrs 6 mos

Northbrook, IL

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hear what Echo's foster has to say about her! 🐾 Meet Echo! 🐾 Echo is such a pretty girl and a joy to be around. She is very sweet and loving—she loves cuddles as much as she enjoys playtime. She’s friendly to everyone she meets and always up for an adventure. Whether it’s going on long walks, playing fetch, or exploring the outdoors, Echo will be ready to join you! She has an incredible sense of smell and enjoys putting it to good use. She enjoys sniffing around our backyard and engaging with lick pads and pots during mealtime, she definitely benefits from the mental stimulation they provide. Echo is also a very quick learner! While we’re not sure if she was potty trained when she first came to us as our foster, she mastered it within a just a few short weeks. If she needs to be left alone, she doesn't seem to mind sleeping in a comfy crate, and over time, I'm confident she would be fine left alone at home without one. She’s currently undergoing heartworm treatment, which is going well, with no side effects. This girl is resilient and full of love to give! A special note about Echo: Don’t judge this sweet girl by her kennel presence. While she may seem a bit unsure or overly excited in the shelter environment, she was the perfect lady in our car and in our foster home. With a little additional leash training, Echo will make a great addition to a fur-ever family!

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Henrietta, is lovingly referred to as Hazel by her fosters! Hazel came to our foster care first while her sister, Maddie, was finishing up some medications and treatment at Border Tails. Hazel is the more apprehensive and cautious of the two sisters and will take more time to warm up to you. But, once she warms up and gets familiar with her environment, she becomes your best friend and wants to be where you are and loves to be pet and brushed! Hazel is a very kind, sweet, and a very tolerant dog! She is not bothered by commotion within the house of other barking dogs, playing dogs, kids playing and being loud or playing. She will just lay there and watch and sometimes she will join in with other dogs to play! Hazel likes to chew on her dog toys and bones and is fully potty trained. She likes to have a dog bed to lay on and does not chew on things she should not! He knows how to sit and we are working on shake. She can be very playful with other dogs and likes to wrestle with our 25lb sheltie/heeler mix! She is very gentle when playing and knows her boundaries! There have been no signs of any type of aggression with Hazel, and she has been through a lot of different scenarios and situations within our household with our dogs and kids.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Maude is lovingly referred to as Maddie by her fosters. Maddie is the more brave and confident of the two sister, and she is willing to try things and explore more and warm up a bit quicker. Maddie came to us about a month after Hazel, and took less time to warm up to us here at her foster home. Maddie likes to be the boss and will let the other dogs know, as she likes to bark and initiate playing with them. She plays gently ,like Hazel does, but is more of an alpha than Hazel when she plays. However, Maddie listens very well to us and knows how to crate up, sit, and working on shake. Maddie likes to be in her crate when she is lounging around, as this is her safe spot. She likes to be in her crate when we are gone as well. Maddie is not aggressive in any way either, as she has been through as much as Hazel within our household with our dogs and kids. Maddie likes to chew on her toys and bones as well and likes to spend time outside with her sister! Maddie does have some health issues with her auto immune disorder, and is in need of someone to love on her just a bit more to help her live her best life. Currently she is on a few medications and will need to be on these the rest of her life as well as have a slightly customized diet to accommodate her health.

Chance

German Shepherd Dog Welsh Springer Spaniel

Male, 3 mos

Palatine, IL

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Story

Hello! My name is Chance. I am one of twelve puppies from the same litter. My fur is short, soft, and brown/black in color. I have really long legs and a very muscular body (that probably helps me run so fast when I play with my brothers). They say that I am about 6-1/2 weeks old, so I am still growing. I have really big paws (or so I hear everyone say) so I think I am going to be a pretty big dog. I have a good appetite - so I think that will help me grow too. I think I stand out because of my name and character. The definition of chance is `the possibility of something happening`...which is what I am all about! I tend to be the leader of my litter and I make things happen - especially when it comes time to play! I am the one who gets everyone to join in on the fun of a wrestling match or a quick chase around the Adoption Center. I am very active but I also like to engage in some gentle play with my brother Dexter. We like to lay on our backs on the couch and touch paws with one another in the air. It`s pretty entertaining for us and it makes the humans laugh a lot.l love playing with my siblings but I am also very independent and curious. I am always looking around the Adoption Center discovering new things. Last week, I learned how to go down the slide at the Adoption Center - it was so much fun! I was pretty good at it because of my long body. I love to play with squeaky toys and stuffed toys too. I am `teething` right now so the humans will give me little teething bones - which I love. They keep me busy and it feels so good to chew on them. I hear that I am a `very handsome boy` all the time. I love how everyone picks me up and says that to me (it makes me feel so special). I am a very good boy when it comes time to eat. I don`t gobble my food and I don`t fight with my brothers for food. Sometimes I eat a little...go rest...and come back and eat a little more. I love to eat, play with my brothers and be with humans. I would love to have a furever home of my own...give me the chance be an awesome addition to a loving family.Interested in adopting this dog?

Primrose

German Shepherd Dog Welsh Springer Spaniel

Female, 3 mos

Palatine, IL

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Story

Meet Primrose, a two-month-old sweetheart with a soft black coat and touches of white and brown on her chest and paws. Weighing under 25 pounds, she’s one of twelve siblings, likely with some Labrador and German Shepherd in her mix. Her name, inspired by *The Hunger Games* and the flower symbolizing “new beginnings,” perfectly reflects her gentle and loving nature. Full of playful energy, Primrose adores anything that squeaks or she can chew. Like any puppy, she’s still learning what’s okay to nibble on, but she’s easily redirected to her toys. Potty training is going well—she quickly does her business outside when given the chance, though she’s still working on crate training and prefers to be near people for comfort. Primrose is a social butterfly who loves dogs of all sizes, especially playful ones who match her energy. She may be hyper at times, but she’s all love—never aggressive, just enthusiastic. With her affectionate heart and eagerness to learn, Primrose is ready to blossom in a forever home that will guide her with patience and love. Could that be you? 🌸🐾 Interested in adopting this dog?
