Story
Tula is a wonderful companion who thrives on genuine connection and love. Tula has a lot of love to give and specific needs that make her an ideal companion for the right home. Her comfort with other dogs and her preference for a quieter, adult-only environment are key considerations for anyone looking to adopt her. Her playfulness and intelligence would certainly shine in a home that can provide regular mental stimulation and physical activity, such as teaching her new tricks and enjoying outdoor adventures. For Tula, potential adopters should be prepared to provide a nurturing, attentive setting where she can form strong bonds. Given her discomfort around children, a calm, stable home with one or two adults would likely be ideal. Also, the presence of another playful dog could be a great source of companionship and help her adjust to her new environment more smoothly. It's important to find the right environment for her where she can feel comfortable and happy. Fill out an adoption application to schedule your own private meet and greet with this furry friend.

Story
Vino is a loyal and affectionate companion who loves to cuddle and play. He is house-trained and walks well on a leash. He TOYS, treats, chasing after wildlife, hanging out on the balcony, spending time with his foster mom. He may do best in a home without other dogs (although he may do well with some guidance/training for resource guarding). Vino would thrive in a patient home where he can continue to build his confidence,  social skills with dedicated family who will work with him on his training and provide him with plenty of love and attention.   If you think Vino could be the perfect addition to your family, please consider adopting him today. Contact us to schedule a meet and greet and learn more about this sweet boy. Adopt don't shop! Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 12-4 pm at 372 Townline Road in Mundelein, IL 60060 to meet our adoptable animals in person.
