My favorite things (not in this order): chasing squirrels, attention from people, chasing squirrels, exploring the backyard with my furry foster brother, chasing squirrels, and going for walks and car rides. Foster dad says I’m an “angel!” He’s happy because I sit nicely when he…
Gentle, Playful, and Smart! Yes, those words describe me! Foster mom says I’m so mild mannered and obedient that I seem like a 5-year old, but I’m only 8-months old! Housebreaking brought out the cleverness in me. I had a plan: when foster mom would…
First thing in the morning, I remind my foster mom that it’s time to take a walk in the forest preserve! Sometimes we get to go wading in the river too! Another way to go is in the car—can’t wait! Life wasn’t always this fun…

Cuddling Duo Luna and her brother Cosmo are the perfect pair for anyone looking for a loving and intelligent pair of Golden Doodles. Their foster mom describes them as dogs who know the basic commands and listen and obey amazingly well. They both exhibit love…
I was given the name Maddie four years ago, but my foster mom thinks it could be Shadow because she says I became her shadow the day I moved in with her. I’m pretty good with commands. I know “sit” even though my foster mom…
