Story
Paolo is a loyal, loving, and well-trained, two-year-old, 47-pound, male, black and white Schnauzer/Hound-mix looking for a loving guardian. He is perfectly housebroken, and knows the commands sit, down, paw, other paw, and walks beautifully on leash with his head harness. Paolo loves training especially when treats are involved. Paolo doesn’t go on furniture, and sleeps on a dog bed in his human’s bedroom. This lovable boy loves food puzzles which entertain him and slow his down when eating. Paolo loves people and does really well with children, and regularly plays with kids as young as five years old. He’s a nervous fellow who needs a moment to warm up to new people. Treats certainly help. He gets along with individual dogs upon proper introduction, but is typically nervous at first. Paolo was cat-tested and was pretty excited. More excited than the cat perhaps. He’d probably be happiest as the only pet in the home. Sadly Paolo lost his home due to his human's worsening allergies. Paolo is very healthy, neutered, up-to-date on rabies, distemper and Bordetella vaccines, micro-chipped, heartworm-tested and on monthly preventative. His adoption fee of $200 benefits the rescued pets of Friends of Petraits Rescue. If you are interested in meeting and possibly adopting Paolo, please fill in an adoption application at https://friendsofpetraits.com/dog-adoption-application/ and follow up by contacting friendsofpetraits@gmail.com to make an appointment to meet him. He is currently being fostered in Chicago’s North Park neighborhood.

Story
Roger is a handsome boy who is silly, sweet, and happy. He's a social little love who has the cutest greetings, happy dances, and excited spins. Roger loves going on walks, saying hi to people, and having them talk to him in a sweet voice (especially when a treat comes soon after!). He loves being included in activities with his humans, which is easy enough given his petite size! Roger has been okay with other dogs, but will do well as a solo dog where he can get ALL of the attention. He's very food motivated and this active senior is very trainable. Roger will come to you when he wants pets and attention, and he will do best in a home with someone who understands his independent nature, his need for space, and quirks about being picked up without first gaining his permission. No kids for Roger, please. Roger has low to medium energy. He's a very chill boy when he wants, but if you're going on a walk or have another activity, he's always down to join you. He thrives on a consistent schedule and would do great in a home with an owner who enjoys relaxing time just as much as play time. If you are looking for a bestie that will bring you lots of laughs and who is eager to please, apply to adopt Roger today!
