Does Chickpea sound like she might be a match for you? Email us at chitownrescue@gmail.com for more information/meet and greet appointment. Chickpea's adoption fee includes spay surgery, vaccinations up to date including Rabies certificate, and microchip.

Buster will undoubtedly be shy with new people, but if you go slow and have patience, we are sure Buster will eventually warm up to his new human friends. Buster is social with other dogs and enjoys playing and zooming. He would do best in a home with another dog (or two!), as they can help him feel more comfortable in a new environment. Buster also enjoys squeaky toys, zoomies, and snacks. He is a curious guy who will follow you around once he trusts you (and especially if there's food involved). Buster would do best in a home with no small children, and a secure yard/fencing. No apartments please, as Buster is not yet leash-trained and will need a yard he has access to, for potty training. If you have room in your heart and home for a special dog like Buster, please send us a message! Email chitownrescue@gmail.com for more information/meet and greet appointment with Buster. Buster's adoption fee includes neuter surgery, vaccinations up to date, and microchip.

Say hello to Pimento! Pimento is an approximately six-year-old male Chihuahua mix, weighing around 20-pounds currently. Pimento came to the Frosted Faces shelter over a year ago, as one of twenty-five dogs who were taken in from a severe hoarding case. All of the dogs were fearful to varying degrees and only a few were social enough to be adopted. Pimento has made great improvement during his time at the shelter and loves attention from those he knows and trusts. He will allow you to pick him up once he is used to you, and will lay by you or climb in your lap for gentle pets. Pimento had never met our photographer but allowed her to pet him as he was being held by his trusted human friend. Pimento's hobbies include squeaky toys and chew bones! Pimento enjoys being social with other dogs and is pretty easy-going with a variety of temperaments, even getting his play on from time to time! Pimento will need a patient and secure home environment that is willing to go slow and let him come to them on his terms. We expect that he will be nervous in a new environment and will do best in a home with no small children. Pimento is social with his kennel mate, Olive, and with other small dogs (unknown on large dogs or cats). If you have the patience to help a shy dog blossom and love a project- get in touch with us to meet Pimento!

Pimento's adoption fee includes neuter surgery, vaccinations up to date, and microchip. Email chitownrescue@gmail.com and we will get you in touch with the Frosted Faces shelter for a meet and greet.

Meet Olive! Olive is an approximately three-year-old female Chihuahua mix, weighing around 15-pounds. Olive came to the Frosted Faces shelter over a year ago, as one of twenty-five dogs who were taken in from a severe hoarding case. All of the dogs were fearful to varying degrees and only a few were social enough to be adopted. Olive has been working hard on her social skills and is finally at a point we are comfortable listing her for adoption! Olive is still quite shy, but with those she knows, she will allow them to pick her up and seeks out attention and pets. Olive LOVES a good back/booty scratch and will kick her hind leg when you've found the spot! Olive does well with her kennel mate and is used to being around other small dogs (unknown on large dogs/cats). We are sure you noticed that Olive has just one eye. She developed a cyst on her eye and unfortunately the eye could not be saved, despite seeing the eye specialist. This does not seem to bother Olive overall and she still gets around great. Olive will need a patient and secure home environment that is willing to go slow and let her come to them on her terms. She likely will take time to warm up to a new environment, but we promise you there will be nothing more rewarding than that first moment Olive decides to trust you. <3

Olive's adoption fee includes spay surgery, vaccinations up to date, and microchip. Email chitownrescue@gmail.com and we will get you in touch with the Frosted Faces shelter for a meet and greet.

Annabelle may need a little time to warm up when meeting someone new. Give her a few moments to get comfortable, and her sweet, affectionate personality starts to shine. She is playful, loves pets and attention, and enjoys walks, exploring, and splashing in kiddie pools. She is potty trained, crate trained, and walks nicely once outside. She also lived successfully with cats in her previous home.

Annabelle has cerebellar hypoplasia, a condition she was born with that affects balance and coordination. For her, this means a slight wobble or head tilt at times. The condition does not progressively worsen. Shelter veterinarians report that she is happy, active, comfortable, and enjoying a good quality of life, with no special treatment currently needed. Her little wobble does not keep her from enjoying the things she loves.

This affectionate girl needs a patient, committed family who will love her just as she is. After so many changes, Annabelle deserves a home where she can finally settle in and stay.

Her zoomies are magnificent but watch out for the toes and shins! She is a 50-pound girl who does not realize she is larger than 3 pounds.

If you're looking for a pair of girls who will keep you laughing, fill your home with love, and become your very best friends, Luna & Sadie may be the mother-daughter duo you've been waiting for!

They will need a home with a secure, fenced-in yard where they can safely run and play. No doggie doors, please! A home with a doggie door will only be considered if there is a secure, covered outdoor enclosure to protect them from potential predators while they are outside.

Both girls can be a little unsure of new people in their space and may bark when someone they don't know arrives. Neither has shown any aggression, and both are learning that new people can mean good things — especially when treats are involved! They will need adopters who are willing to give them a little patience and time as they get comfortable. Because both girls can be cautious with new people, their family will need to understand that they may take a little time to warm up. Once they trust you, though, you'll have two very special girls by your side.

Both dogs are up to date on vaccinations, spayed and microchipped. Their adoption fee as a pair is $500.00.

Sadie (daughter) — Sweet, Playful & Full of Potential!

Sadie is 5-1/2 year old, 15 pound Bichon/Westie mix who is an absolute sweetheart with a gentle soul and a happy, playful personality. She can be a little shy when meeting new people, especially in her own space, and may bark at first. But give her a few treats, some gentle scratches, and a little time, and her curiosity quickly takes over. Once Sadie feels comfortable, she is beginning to ask for affection all on her own — and it is pretty darn adorable!

Sadie LOVES to play! Chewy toys, fetch, and the occasional game of tug-of-war are some of her favorite activities. She is wonderful with other dogs and enjoys being part of the action. She is gentle and respectful with the older dogs in her foster home and isn't possessive of her toys or food. Sadie also likes being near her people and may shed a few tears when left alone in her kennel. She is a people-loving girl who wants to know where her humans are! Sadie walks nicely on a leash and did great on an outing to Home Depot. Her first car ride without the other dogs made her a little shaky, but she handled her adventure well. She just needs patience and encouragement as she continues building confidence in new situations.

And this girl is SMART! Sadie is very treat-motivated, which should make training and learning new tricks lots of fun. She also has the cutest way of celebrating when she's excited — she'll sometimes stand up on her hind legs and give little “cheers” with her front paws!

Sadie is easygoing about grooming, too. Her first haircut was a breeze, and although she will let you trim her nails, she needs a little encouragement and patience. Baths aren't a big deal either — although thankfully, she hardly ever needs one!

Luna (mother)— aka Luna Lou, Lulu, Lu-natic, Louboutin, Lou-Boo & Big Mama!

Whatever you call her, one thing is certain: Luna is a BIG personality packed into one very lovable girl! Luna is a 6-1/2 year old, 16 pound Bichon/Poodle mix who is big, bouncy, and full of personality. She has the cutest bunny-hop run, loves doing her signature “spinnies,” and isn't afraid to let everyone know exactly what she thinks. This girl definitely has opinions — and she's not shy about sharing them!

Luna LOVES squeaky toys and can happily chew a Busy Bone into complete nonexistence. She can be a little protective of her special chewy treats, so she is happiest when she can enjoy her stash in peace. And while Luna may be a bossy babe, she is also a total cuddlebug! She will let you know when she wants to be picked up, and if she wants something, you might get a little stomp accompanied by a very determined huff. Yep… Luna has an attitude, and it's absolutely adorable.

Luna is hypothyroid and takes medication twice a day, but she makes pill time incredibly easy. Just put her medication in her food dish and she happily eats it right along with her kibble. She has already lost some of her extra weight, and with that weight loss has come even more of her fun-loving spunk!

When it comes to grooming, Luna has VERY strong opinions about baths! Consider yourself warned! Thankfully, she is perfectly fine with brushing and trimming and will patiently sit through her grooming. She is also good with nail trims when they are done slowly and gently.

And then there's Luna's legendary snore. Seriously… this girl could probably give a chainsaw a run for its money! Luna is funny, affectionate, spirited, cuddly, and completely unforgettable. She may need some patience when meeting new people, but once she knows you, you'll discover just how much love this big personality has to give.

When Carly meets a new person, she will likely not show you her best side. Carly takes time to warm up and only shows her fun and affectionate side to those she knows and trusts. Carly may avoid a new person by running or by seeking comfort hiding behind someone she knows. She may also "alarm bark" or lunge at the new person and try to intimidate them into going away. These are all fear-based behaviors that Carly displayed to us at the shelter when first meeting us. Carly spent a week in a foster home but was returned to the shelter related to her fear issues. She had bonded with the female in the home, but was growling when male family members walked in and she was near "her person". Carly would do best in a dog-experienced home that doesn't have a lot of members coming and going.

Carly is looking for a patient home who will give her the time she needs to warm up on her terms. Carly is approximately three-years-old and weighs around 20-pounds. Her adoption fee includes spay surgery, vaccinations up to date/Rabies certificate, and microchip. Email chitownrescue@gmail.com for more information/meet and greet appointment with Carly!

He does well with children but he is a playful, teething puppy and is still learning about chewing on toys, not people. He has never been exposed to cats so his temperament with them is unknown. Squish is neutered, current on vaccines, dewormed, microchipped, and ready for his forever home! His estimated birth date is 7/8/2026 and his adoption fee is $300.

Zach is very social with other dogs and has always enjoyed zooming and playing with his dog pals. He has a fun energy level and enjoys toys and the play pool also. Zach MUST go to a home with at least one other playful dog, as his greatest joy in life is play time with his pals. Zach also needs to go to a home experienced with fearful dogs, and with no small children. Zach would do best in a home (no apartments) with access to a secure and fenced yard, as he is not leash-trained. If you have room in your home and heart to help a dog as special as Zach, please email us at chitownrescue@gmail.com!

Georgia is such a wonderful girl! She is sweet, calm, affectionate and absolutely loves being close to her people. One of her favorite things is cuddling on the couch.

Georgia's wonderful qualities include:

Potty trained

Walks great on a leash

Loves swimming and playing in the water

Enjoys walks and car rides

Sweet, calm and affectionate

Loves cuddling on the couch

Can do well with compatible male dogs

Georgia needs a home without female dogs. She would do best as the only dog or with a compatible male dog following proper introductions. A meet and greet is required if you have another dog.

The heartbreaking part is that Georgia is so scared living in a kennel at a boarding facility. She misses the comfort and security of a home, and we desperately want to get her out of this environment.

Georgia isn't at a shelter where potential adopters can walk through and discover her. She depends on people sharing her story to help her find the family she deserves.

At only 2 years old, Georgia has her whole life ahead of her. She deserves to feel safe, sleep on a comfortable bed, cuddle on the couch and be loved by a family of her own.

Please don't let Georgia spend her young years scared and waiting behind kennel doors. She just needs someone to give her a chance.

Once Jimi trusts you, he becomes your loyal little shadow, happily following you from room to room, curling up nearby while you relax, and loving you with his whole heart. The bond you build with him is one that’s earned, making it all the more rewarding.

Jimi gets along well with other dogs, but he would be happiest as the only dog in the home where he doesn’t have to share your attention. He would thrive in a calm, quiet household with a predictable routine and not a lot of new people coming and going. His adoption fee is $100 and he is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. To meet him text 602-908-6215.

Her recent visit with the cardiologist brought encouraging news. Her heart condition has actually improved slightly since her last evaluation. She is not in heart failure, does not need daily heart medication, and surgery is not recommended. Her cardiologist expects her condition to remain stable now that she is fully grown. She will simply need a yearly cardiology recheck so her heart can continue to be monitored.

Is there some added risk because of her heart? Yes. She does have a higher risk than a dog without a heart condition, and we always want to be honest about that. But today, Duffy is living a full, active, joyful life—and we believe she deserves a family who sees her for so much more than her diagnosis.

And let us tell you about the real Duffy.

She is a 2.5 year old petite Lab mix (around 30-40lbs) with the biggest heart in every way that matters. She is unbelievably sweet, gentle, and loving. Every single person who meets her falls in love. Even the veterinary staff can’t help but adore her every time she visits.

Her greatest passion in life? TOYS! If there’s a toy nearby, Duffy is the happiest girl on the planet. Fetch it, squeak it, carry it around proudly—she is completely obsessed. She also loves playing with other dogs and gets along wonderfully with everyone she meets.

Duffy doesn’t need someone looking for a “perfect” dog. She needs someone who understands that perfection comes in many forms—and that sometimes the dogs with a few extra challenges love the hardest.

Her adoption fee is $100 and she is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. To meet her text 480-718-1312.

I am trying to not be such a daddy's boy. And at times, I am successful.

I will need someone who will be patient and understanding with my adventure in trusting.”

As with all our foster dogs/puppies, Stitch has been altered, microchipped, and has had his shots.
Please text or call Bob at (623) 680-1170 for more information on this goofy boy.
