We are a home based foster volunteer rescue since 2012 focusing on high risk animals in the Chicago metro area shelters. Our mission is to reduce the euthanasia through education and through responsibly rehoming animals via adoption. We Value All Lives. We are drawn to those most often overlooked which includes seniors, medical needs and special needs and hospice animals. We are mainly a dog rescue but work with cats from time to time as well.
We ask that everyone completes an adoption application. Once our volunteers can process the application we will call you and potentially set up a home visit. Once that is complete we can schedule a meet and greet with all members of the family present, including all pets. If all goes well we will start with a sleepover before we finalize an adoption.
