Made A Wish Rescue, Inc

Animal rescue in chicago, IL

We are a small foster based rescue hoping to make a difference in a lot of pets lives. We pull dogs from our local area and from owner surrenders that have been fully temperament tested. We also offer discounted training in group classes and board and trains to help ease the transition into a home for the animals that come thru MAWR. We also offer assistance visiting other shelters and doing temperament tests for a small donation. We want to help people get the pet that is right for them. To many animals are returned from a lack of fitting into a household.

We will forward and adoption application asking what pet your interested in or what you are looking for. We offer assistance finding you your perfect match from going to other shelters along side to full temperament testing with a small donation. Once we have went over your application and reference checked (within 2 days) we will call and setup a meet and greet. If your still in love and have a connection with that pet will do a home visit.
