Wheezer - Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Chicago, Illinois

Meet Wheezer!

Wheezer came to us from our friends in Texas with his sister, Maizie, who is also separately available for adoption. We may not know much about their past, but we do know that their forever homes are out there waiting for them.

Wheezer is about 1 year old, and while were not sure what his mix is, we do know one thing for certain: he is as CUTE as can be.

Now hes ready to find a family of his own and start the next chapter of his life. Could you be the forever home hes been waiting for?

Things to note:
He is working on potty training and leash training.
He loves other dogs and has met a ton of different personalities.
He is working on crate training and has shown to be a bit smarter than the average so we are working on finding out the crate that is best for him, xoxo. Thankfully, he isn't stressed he just is a brat and has FOMO.
He is about 40 pounds and so he is the perfect sized medium dog who would love to steal your couch.

His adoption fee includes age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives (flea, tick, and heartworm), multiple rounds of deworming, neuter, and microchip.

Adopters must live in or within 3 hours of Chicago to be considered.
Please only apply if your timeline allows you to take your new family member home the same week you are approved.
