16. Doc
Puppy · Female · Australian Shepherd / Mixed · 13 mi from Oak Lawn









The "Back To The Future" litter of pups is 1.21 gigawatts of pure cuteness! With
their mesmerizing eyes, unique coat colors and patterns, they are sure to win an Oscar!
Doc is approximately 12 weeks old and weighs approx. 10lbs. Like any
puppy she is in need of
training and someone who is willing to work with her.
True to her Aussie heritage Doc does like to herd her people. However, she is smart and takes corrections well so will thrive with a committed family to train her on the "do's and don'ts."
Read more about Doc
Foster Home Update: Any children in the home should be older. She plays very actively and loves to play "hard" with the other dogs in her foster home. She would love to have another dog in her forever home to wrestle with. Probably one on the younger side as she wrestles hard and I imagine it would be irritating to an older dog. She likes to follow you around the house. Is not found of the crate and does bark in the crate, will settle, however this is when there are other dogs in the same room with her so I do not know how she would be alone. Loves bones and toys!
She would excel in obedience training!

17. Swiss
Puppy · Male · Boston Terrier / Boxer / Mixed (short coat) · 17 mi from Oak Lawn






Pal's Place recently rescued two of the sweetest, cutest, and most lovable little nuggets in town, and they're now looking for loving forever families. Swiss and Colby are precious lovebug littermates who were rescued from an overburdened animal control facility in rural Kentucky. They are currently in a loving foster home in Chicago, waiting to meet their forever families. Their mother is a purebred Boston Terrier; their father is unknown. The other half of their parentage may be unknown, but whoever daddy is, he produced some adorable little fellas described as looking like giant Boston Terriers or miniature Boxers! Weighing 35 pounds at 8 months of age, their expected adult size falls right in the middle of the size difference between these two breeds. Fantastic medium-sized pups perfect for urban or suburban dwelling! Swiss can be a bit bashful when meeting new people and is cautiously curious initially. A few gentle pats, kind words, and maybe a little yummy treat or two, and Swiss is fast friends within a few minutes! Like most puppies, he's energetic, playful, curious, and eager to explore the world around him. He'll thrive in an active household that can provide plenty of mental and physical stimulation throughout the day, plus the routine, guidance, and structure all developing puppies need to mature into the best adult dogs they can be. Swiss loves exploring on walks, wrestling with other pooches, collecting toys and bones, sunning himself on the porch, and snuggling with his humans. He is crate trained and making excellent progress with his housebreaking when on a regular schedule. Swiss has had a good start and a solid foundation but is still a young dog learning the ropes who just needs a little polishing work. Potential adopters should be willing and prepared to continue working with him on house training and basic manners. He's smart as a whip, very food-motivated, engaging, and eager to please, which makes training sessions enjoyable and fun. Swiss is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and started on monthly flea and heartworm. He's a healthy, happy fella ready to live life to the fullest. All he's missing is a family to share his love with. Interested in meeting this cutie patootie? Swiss is fostered in Chicago, and meetings are by appointment once an adoption application is submitted and approved. His adoption fee is $475 and helps to cover his neuter and medical care needed to prepare him for adoption.

19. Sodoku
Puppy · Female · Terrier / Mixed · 13 mi from Oak Lawn










The "Fun & Games gamers" of tiny terriers are sweet, sassy and special! They were born in rescue in July and they do well with other dogs, cats, birds and kids!
These gamers are now 13 weeks old and weigh between 8-10lbs. They are working on house training, mealtime manners, and are very familiar with the "Leave It" command.
Foster Home Update: Sodoku is a special needs pup with vision impairment in one eye, but that does not slow her down!
Read more about Sodoku
She's an independent girl that prefers to have fun vs being a cuddle bunny. She has created her own gait, not a walk, but not quite a run - but somewhere in between. Gets along with the dogs and cat, and other foster pups. Pad trained but still has accidents.
Photo of Mom (Bingo) is included for reference and she is also available for adoption!
We recommend training for all our dogs!

Adopting a puppy in Oak Lawn
Puppies usually go to their new homes from about eight weeks old, once they're weaned and have had their first vaccinations. Most rescues spay or neuter them before adoption, or include it in the fee.
Ask the rescue how big the puppy is expected to grow and which breeds they think are in the mix, so you can plan for the dog they'll become.
Puppies need a lot of your time: house-training, a few minutes of training every day, several small meals, and someone home often enough to let them out. A puppy class is a good way to start.
