In advertising, there’s a creative exercise where several famous people or characters are assigned to a product or brand to better define their character and characteristics. Here’s what we’ve got for Murdoch:
•Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson
•The Kool-Aid Man
•Will Ferrell’s impression of Harry Caray

This hippoPITamus is the epitome of a lovable lug. As is true of most pitbulls, he’s convinced himself that he weighs less than a Yorkie and behaves as such. Laps? He will sit on them. His understanding of personal space is limited but in the best way possible. He knows to patiently wait in his crate or by his people but the moment you give him the ok, he’s knocking into you, covering you in smooches, and generally radiating pure love. 

For someone that looks as tough and assertive as Doc, he’s anything but. To a comical extent even. His doodle and pocket pittie sister have him wrapped around their little paws. Both can be a little bossy and he follows orders. He’s a gent when it comes to meeting new dogs and tolerates even the yappiest of creatures. 

Murdoch knows how to sit, he knows to go into his crate when his humans are leaving, and we’re working on our leash manners. He is a very, very strong boy (Dwayne Johnson strong) so it’s very critical that his new people set boundaries and continue on with his training to ensure that he understands that no matter how beefy he is, what his people tell him to do is gospel. 

You know all of those feel good videos on social media about the tough-looking rescue pitbulls that end up being the most perfect hairy kids? Those videos that remind you that dogs are too good and too pure for this planet? That’s our Murdoch.

We CANNOT get enough of little Stassi!  She’s a teeny little 6 pound teacup terrier mix who LOVES to cuddle.  She is a major lap dog who wants to be next to you 24/7, and is happiest in your arms / lap / purse.  She LOVES to give kisses, and although she loves to stick by her person, she is very friendly to every person she meets.  Great with other dogs, and randomly pulls out rockstar play moves meeting new dogs!  Also great on leash, and on walks, and overall very chill.  The most perfect cuddly companion.

Holy heartthrob of a friend everyone wants for life. Underbite, Yoda ears (and more importantly, brain), heart larger than the oceans combined. Charlie was found in an enclosure without an entrance or exit underneath someone’s porch. He and three chihuahuas we huddled together when rescue came to free them. Charlie won everyone’s heart in a matter of a millisecond. This kind and gentle boy holds zero grudges into humanity. He’s grateful for every stroke of kindness and loves to just be next to you. He’s great with dogs. He’s just a really, really, really wonderful being and we are honored to have him in our Pack. We love you, Charlie. Only the best for our healer of boy here on out. Mellow, mellow dude.

Gingggggggy. We adore this sweet brave survivor warrior princess. Ginger came to us when her owner was hospitalized.

Doug is bashful. Shy until he knows you are in it for the long haul. Why open up to someone until they have earned that right. He is captivating, he wears his heart on his sleeve. Doug is playful, silly, compassionate, and thoughtful. He loves a good romp in the yard, yet loves his safe place next to you on the couch. He loves his foster siblings, like so much. His ability to read people- like a unicorn, the rarest of qualities. But we should all learn from him. He only wants to surround himself with uplifting, positive people that want to show him the best of the world. People who understand that he is sensitive, which is not a weakness, but a sign that he lives life leading with his heart. Are you worthy of Doug?

Sky brings new meaning to the term pocket pittie. The teeny bundle of love is great with greats and other dogs. Sweet girl, photographs larger than she is. She fits into a fanny pack. Full grown but reliving that puppy chapter she never got to enjoy. Her body shows evidence of living in her own urine. Lovely girl and an easy addition to any home.

So smart and attentive for a young gentleman! Bagel fits the needs of wanting a puppy without the complete puppy mayhem. He’s extremely communicative. Those eyes pierce through your soul and see the future. His lipths are one of a God. He’s lanky, has decent size delicious pawsies, and more rolls than all bakeries combined in a zip code. Not mouthy because he’s too busy reading the Harry Potter Chronicles. Waiting to couch time the movies with you and your fam. He also wants you to not forget that only real men wear pink (obviously).

Hance is looking for...? You guessed it, a platonic Forever romance! This pocket sized Pyrenees mix is such a kind soul! He found himself as a stray admitted to a Texas open access shelter with a broken leg. He had surgery where they had to put in a metal plate. Hance made his way up to IL and is being fostered at a farm in Maple Park. He’s great with dogs and horses. We use him as a tester dog for other dogs. He’s a happy camper loving life and always showing his smile. Hance would love a mellow household to couch it in, go for long walks holding hands, cooking dinner and lots of snuggling. He’s a true romantic at heart!

Perfect companion, size and age for someone looking to celebrate upcoming warmer day walks and never underestimating the joy of a good couch marathon. As she comes to her own in foster, shedding heartbreak from being dropped at the shelter, we see her potential and she aims to please. Can’t wait to see her someone complete  her and vice versa. Extremely attentive, great eye contact, communicative and alert, she is one to commit to another’s guidance and locking down that beating heart. She’s looking for a calm, deep and understanding soul to grow old with.

We believe Nemo is an American Mastiff. The breed was created in the south for longer life span and slightly smaller build. This guy is an ancient warlock (the good kind) in a young, agile, (need we say) handsome guy’s body. Smart, attention seeking, loves a good adventure, romping outside equally as much as he adores his bed and cuddle sessions. This burst of love is looking for a savvier family accustomed to mastiff traits and behaviors, i.e protective nature.

Biiiiiiiiiiird-ah. Bird lived in shelter for 8 whole months and was a volunteer favorite. Bird’s loving fan club raised money and sent Bird to a Board and Train as he started to show heavy signs of kennel stress (EIGHT MONTHS!!! He’s an angel in our eyes). The kennel where Bird was being boarded burned down in a terrible fire that took many lives. Bird survived that tragedy and was bound to go back to shelter life because he didn’t have rescue as of yet. We fell in love with him at first sight and into our Pack he came. Bird LOVES the outdoors. Bird wants to befriend a human who equally loves adventures and the great outdoors. He’s an old soul who craves peace and serenity in all forms physical and mental. He’s a ride or die type of mammal and he’s the definition of BEST FRIEND. Bird survived that fire with purpose to heal, love, and build the trust of a lifetime with an equally open heart willing and seeking that partnership.

Mama Lake. Barely an adult herself, bred repeatedly to have her babies taken away too young for a quick dollar. We saved her and one puppy from the pound; after they were discarded like trash, after she was no longer useful to those humans and baby wasn’t sold quick enough equaling an inconvenience. Lake is an excellent mama, protective, structured, loyal, compassionate and kind. She’s incredibly smart. She has layers upon layers of depth, opinions and thought. Getting to know our dogs is such an honored experience. Through not only words do we seek substance about the past, boundaries, ancestors, pain, infectious highs, the weight from the heavy accumulated lows but also experiencing, absorbing and walking, in stride, together. We cannot wait for Lake’s love of a lifetime to find her. She cares for one like her own. She communicates better than Oprah. Her desire for affection is Guinness World Book worthy. Her battle wounds belong in a museum. Her beauty is undeniable. Her will is medal worthy. It is nothing short of a gift to befriend her. Looking forward to the fortunate human who will be so lucky to wake up nestled into her, Forever.

Special needs. Inflicted with cranial mandibular osteopathy, Chance can not open his mouth. He can lap specially prepared mushy food and water. He's on a super healthy diet that has him feeling and looking like a million bucks!.

In December of 2017, in came a malnourished little gray hippo unable to open his mouth with his tongue hanging out to the side. A gentleman brought him into AWL Wabash on the cold night, saying he found him in an abandoned building seeking shelter. We fell in love at first sight and into MCP he came. Chance is just shy of 2 years old. He weighs in around 40ish lbs. Chance was diagnosed with Cranial Mandibular Osteopathy as some people refer to it as Lions Jaw. Although he is unable to open his mouth he leads an incredibly happy and outgoing life. He laps his food and water (hence the name Chance the Lapper named after one of his role model’s Chance the Rapper). He’s in prime shape, shiny, and healthy. He receives laser therapy regularly and he does have more lateral movement in his mouth that previously. He loves playing with toys. He loves playing with his doggie friends. He loves sunbathing and rolling around in the grass. He loves taking walks with his foster family. He loves hanging out with his human foster sibling. He’s a mama’s boy at heart and we say Chance’s “specials needs” are actually his super powers! He doesn’t allow anything to slow him down. He loves and lives life to the fullest. He’s our role model and he is looking for a Forever family equally as magical as he!

Have you been looking for a bestie in life? Someone to climb mountains with, share a beer, and then take hilarious selfies? Then Masil Basil is your girl. She greets strangers with a lick, she howls to say hello, she photobombs pictures. She’s spunky, curious, and independent. She’s your hype girl on runs and will check in to make sure she hasn’t left you behind. She comforts you when you can’t sleep and makes herself beds of pillows. She kisses you when you’re sad and likes to stay close to her people. While her heart is 110% open to strange human friends and children, it takes her a minute with new dog friends. But with proper boundaries and help, she thrives with her canine counterparts. She frequents doggie daycare, lets her foster brother sit on her head, and enjoys romping around with her foster sister. She would love a dog-savvy human or family with a yard and an adventurous lifestyle.

Gentle soul is redefined with this beautiful and deeply gifted girl. Maddie lived on the streets for what seemed a while. Saluki’s date back to pre 19th century and are defined as ‘grace and symmetry’, and over long distances will out run a greyhound. This girl is looking for land to run, and friend to join her on adventures! Maddie is naturally a little shy off the bat but literally melts into you like cheese on a patty melt, the moment she validates you for having equally unique powers. She would like something more peaceful than downtown high rise as she’s learning that the world isn’t a threat to her safety anymore. She loves dogs.

Pablo (on the right, 2 years old) and Pablito (on the left, 3 years old) are father and son hilarious little aliens! They were dropped off at a open access kill shelter together and together they shall remain. These two gentleman are shy in character but lover bugs once they feel comfortable in their surroundings.

Their love for one another has one head over heels in an instant. Think biodynamic brewery in their basement, both in academia by day, avid readers, vegan once but bacon wins these days, complete introverts that spill over sudoku puzzles and good brews in the evening hours. Oh and their favorite movie is The Birdcage... gotta love these two guys.

Robin (aka Bobin, aka Robin Hood) 

The first thing that comes to mind when you think about Robin is that he is a big goof. He is like a little puppy in a big dog’s body! It’s endearing to watch him clumsily gallop around the yard, or try and figure out how to fit his long legs underneath him to lay in a chair. He often lays down in the most random places in the goofiest positions. For example, on his back, belly up, in a tiny chair. Or underneath a table or desk. He has no clue how big he! He is often content to simply lay down by himself, but loves to snuggle with you while you watch a movie or read a book. Robin loves his people. His long tail rarely stops wagging and will whip even faster if you just look at him! Robin craves attention and love from his people more than anything. For him, getting pet from someone he loves is better than walks, food, toys or treats. He learned to ‘sit’ and ‘lay down’ by getting pet (most people would use treats to teach this!). Speaking of walks, Robin is, by far, one of the easiest dogs to walk on leash. Although he is interested squirrels, he rarely pulls on the leash and is happy to simply mosey a step behind you like a little (but big) duck. Speaking of food, Robin doesn’t guard his food bowl from dogs or humans and lets his people pick it up no problem. He is quick to trust other dogs—I’m not sure I have ever seen another dog so excited to go into doggie day care (sometimes I think he likes dog day care more than his people!).

Robin needs to continue to learn about himself and others. He needs to learn how to control his big and tall and goofy body – he’s not a puppy anymore! For example, he craves pets from his people so much that he will often place his paw on your leg or arm as if he is saying “pet me, pet me, pet me!” While this wouldn’t phase an adult, it’s not the best way to interact with a little human. Same with his mouth, Robin chomps on treats, not aware that he now has a big head and big mouth—he is learning to be gentle. Robin also needs to learn about others. He is super loyal to his people and needs someone to teach him that new humans are safe and good and aren’t there to hurt him or his people. Robin is motivated for food and attention from his humans (he gets 6 cups of dog food a day and still needs to gain weight!) so using food and praise are great ways to help Robin learn. Robin will do best with humans who are willing to teach him about himself and show him that the world is a good safe place. He would love to have a quiet yard (suburbs/farm) to relax, play, and gallop in (either with himself, or with a dog brother/sister).

Scottie is 6 months old and only a weeeetle bitty guy at 20lbs soaking wet. We would be shocked if he got over 30lbs full grown. We aren’t sure how his backend became paralyzed but in speaking with specialists he will live a long and happy life, no problem.

Scottie got his cart in the other day and is LOVING zooming around like a regular puppy. He’s so charming and unstoppable, you believe him when he says he’s Walt Disney reincarnated. Great with kids, dogs, cats, city bunnies. This little nugget is pure awesome.

Other dogs, children.

Braggs and Esme, or Braggsme, were rescued the same evening and have been soulmates ever since. Esme (brindle) is a teeny tiny warthog/pittie mix who ended up at Chicago Animal Control, after having babies (who weren't with her), covered in scabs and sores and so shy that she didn't want to come out of her cage. The night we drove away from the shelter with a terrified Esme, Braggs carried up to the car by the scruff of his neck and thrown in, the owner only saying that he was the last of a litter of puppies and he couldn't sell him before walking away. So Esme, who was completely shut down after her experiences, and Braggs, a puppy who was afraid of his own shadow, met. These two have formed such a beautiful friendship. They are always checking in and nudging each other. They are seep holding paws or snuggling bound around each other. They play. They groom. They are incredibly sweet. They speak each other's language. They love one another. They are looking for someone to open their home to them so they could grow old together. They love children and just hanging out. They are great in the car and walk well together on adventures. We would just love to see them thrive forever onward, together, as part of a family. Esme is about 3 years old and only 35 lbs, Braggs is about a year old and 55 lbs.
