One of the drawbacks to rescue is that the dogs are not all in one place where people can come and meet their favorites all at once. With rescue, you generally decide which dog you are interested in based on the information on the blog or website, as well as from the answers you've received from all the questions you'll have asked the Adoptions Coordinators. Then you arrange to meet that particular dog. And yes, you are more than welcome to do this for more than one dog, it just isn't something that you can usually do all in one day as we need to coordinate around foster homes schedules and lives.
This is often not an issue if you know exactly what you are looking for, but if you are a little uncertain some times it is just nice to meet all the dogs and get a better feel for their personality, how they interact with you and how you think they'll fit into your lifestyle. Sometimes you just need to feel the chemistry to know which dog is right for you. Often you won't know what you are looking for, until you meet them.
So that is why there are things like Adoption Fairs! The Prairie Dog Canine Rescue is hosting an adoption fair this Saturday (June 19) and has invited several rescues (including Windy City Canine Rescue) to participate. So here is your chance to meet all the dogs you've been kind of wondering about. Is Farrah as playful as she looks, is Missy as sassy as she appears and is Parker really friendly enough to lick you to death? Come find out!
When: Saturday, June 19
Time: 10-4
Where: Storage Town - 3732 6 Ave B

Our adoption fee allows us to provide the basics for the dogs in our care, but we are always encountering additional expenses (dental work, medicine for illnesses, etc.). If you would like to help the dogs in our care, but aren't looking to adopt one at this time, please consider a donation. Thank you.
