Story
ADOPT OLGA! American Staffy / German Shepherd mix (we have DNA results) -Housebroken / crate-trained -Sweet, fun, loving personality -Loves other dogs / is cat curious/pesty -Spayed & fully vetted, medium energy Meet Olga! She is a petite, 45 pound pitbull/shepherd mix. She is around 4 years old and was picked up stray by animal control. She is a brindle cutie with an adorable vanilla swirl next to her nose. If you have been looking for a nice medium sized dog that loves to play with other dogs, Olga is your gal! She is fostered with dogs & cats and is cat pesty/curious. Not aggressive towards them but better with no cats or dog savvy/playful cats that can give her a swat and put her in her place if needed. She is bouncy and happy to see her people, so may unintentionally knock down little kids, but still would likely make a great family dog with older/dog-experienced kids. She enjoys playing in the yard with her foster brothers and snuggling on the couch. She is medium energy – not super loud/energetic, and loves lounging on the couch. She is spayed, vaccinated against distemper/parvo, rabies, bordetella, heartworm negative and on heartworm/flea and tick prevention, and microchipped. She is housebroken, crate trained and fully grown at 45 pounds. Her adoption fee is $295. Her foster mom has lots of pics & videos of Olga in her foster home, please email amandarescues78@gmail.com with questions. Sound like a match? Visit www.heathersfosterdogs.org to fill out an application online, which will be forwarded to Olga’s foster mom. We are located in the south suburbs of Chicago, and adopt out to that general area and Northwest Indiana – we do not ship dogs.

Story
Meet Miss Fitz, a sweet and silly female pit bull. She was found injured in the woods in Midlothian, IL. She seems to have had a rough start to life - the vet speculated that she was used as a breeder or bait dog due to the scars and scabs all over her and evidence of multiple litters of puppies. Somehow, she is still willing to trust kind humans, despite being sometimes afraid of quick movements around her. She is estimated to be 2-3 years old. Fitz is very cuddly and loves attention and pets. She is extremely food-motivated. She is great with her canine foster sister, though not very interested in playing. Fitz is untested with children and cats, but given her gentle nature, she would likely be fine with older kids. She is 60 lbs and loves to lean and lay on her foster people. If you have gentleness, kindness, and space in your heart and home, Fitz could be the right dog for you!

Chicago Heights, IL

Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Ace is a sweet and lovable 8-year-old boy with a natural flair for leadership and protection. He adores kids and thrives in a solo-dog environment—unless he’s sharing a home with his brother, King, from the same litter. While Ace has a fondness for all his toys, the tug-of-war rope holds a special place in his heart, as he relishes active and engaging playtime. Ace’s adventurous spirit makes him an avid walker and neighborhood explorer. Whether you’re striving for 10,000 steps a day or simply looking to be more active, Ace is the perfect companion to keep you motivated. Rain, shine, or snow, he’s ready to be by your side, indoors or out. Ace experiences mild seasonal allergies that can lead to a bit more shedding and, occasionally, ear infections as the temperatures shift. These minor sensitivities don’t hold him back from being the loyal and spirited companion you’ll cherish through every season.

Story
King is an adorable and sweet 8-year-old boy with a passion for cuddles—he’s a true connoisseur of affection! His love language is physical touch, and belly rubs are his absolute favorite. While his enthusiasm and boundless affection may sometimes overwhelm small children, his charm is hard to resist. Another sure way to win King’s heart is through a game of fetch. With endless energy and impressive agility, he’s a pro at chasing down and retrieving tennis balls, all while helping you close your fitness rings and crush your workout goals. King thrives on outdoor adventures and daily walks, proving to be the ultimate companion for meeting your step count. His vet consistently gives him a clean bill of health, so you can count on a robust and spirited buddy. King’s acute awareness and responsiveness to sounds ensure that you’re always prepared for any visitors—invited or not. However, be mindful of his sensitivity to sudden loud noises, such as fireworks, as they can startle him.

Story
I’m Dusseldorf! I’m around 4 months old and eagerly looking for my forever home. I’m currently being fostered in Pittsburgh but can be transported by amazing volunteers to you! I am a handsome, energetic, yet shy guy looking for my forever home. I was the least confident of the litter of puppies and have been working on not being so fearful. I am food motivated and I love playing with toys. I am social with other dogs and love getting affection and attention. I would thrive with an owner that will keep providing me with positive, consistent socializations. A confident doggy sibling would be nice, too but not required. I am crate trained, ride well in the car, and I’m doing well with housetraining foundations. I am currently 19 pounds. I am fully vaccinated, current on monthly heartworm/flea/tick preventative, and already microchipped. - Adoption is conditional on being neutered around 6 months of age. The rescue will work with the adopters to ensure this is completed through a partner clinic OR the rescue will reimburse $200 upon proof of neuter. - Breed DNA results can be viewed at: embk.me/mommaslastlitter - I would be prepared for high energy, terrier-like adults as they mature. Her mom is 33 lbs and it is expected these pups will mature to around 30-40 lbs as well.
