Meet Dagmar, the four-legged dynamo with a heart of gold and a tennis ball obsession that rivals Federer’s.

Dagmar’s hobbies include enthusiastically chasing tennis balls, immediately dropping them for another round, and trying to figure out if she’s part Labrador or just a really convincing impostor. She’s got a soft spot for cuddles and will happily transform into a lap dog if you let her—tennis ball firmly in mouth, of course.

She’s curious about other dogs but hasn’t quite figured out if she wants to play or just announce her presence with some enthusiastic barking. Dagmar’s dream life? Endless tennis balls, belly rubs, and a warm lap to curl up in. She’s sweet, spunky, and ready to bring some energy (and tennis balls) to your life!
This girl is ready to go home. Come meet her any day between 12-6pm at Chicago Animal Care and Control

Petey is searching for a foster or adopter to call his own! This sweet 8-year-old was surrendered to the shelter by his previous owner, and he deserves so much more than life in a kennel. Petey dreams of spending his golden years in a cozy, loving home where he can truly relax.

He’s an easygoing guy who doesn’t ask for much—just a comfy bed, a few treats, and people to love him. Can you give Petey the second chance he deserves?

Sweet Alec can be super shy at times, but other times he’s full of energy, jumping and playful. He’s such a good boy and seems to take direction really well. While walking on leash, he started to jump a bit, so I turned and walked the other way. When we returned to our original direction, he adjusted beautifully, walking in step with me, which was so nice to see. In the play lot, he had a little burst of zoomies but quickly settled down, wanting nothing more than to melt into you for some affection—that’s clearly what he enjoys the most. He loves treats and takes them so gently. He’s a silly, sweet puppy and can’t be more than a year old. He was also brave enough to give agility a try and seems to really enjoy it. Alex is available for adoption at Chicago Animal Care and Control. You can meet him any day between 12-6pm.

This is Remuloude, he was a great dog. He did agility and went to play group,, and he was available for adoption at Chicago Animal Care and Control but unfortunately the shelter runs out of space every single day because people are irresponsible. Over 10 stray dogs came in just yesterday morning (7/4) before the fireworks even started. And the shelter was already full. Many of them come in without collars and tags and aren’t chipped. It doesn’t cost much to get a collar and you can get a tag for $5-$10 at a pet store. Many shelters/rescues sponsor free chip and vaccination clinics. There is absolutely no excuse. These dogs shouldn’t even step foot in the shelter. They should be going straight home. Then pups like Remuloude would get to experience another day and the chance at having his own family. 🌈
