What WeRescue Scout knows about Peter

Peter needs a patient, committed adopter who can dedicate time to training, socialization, and bonding during his critical puppy months. He's at his best with people who can provide a flexible schedule to accommodate potty breaks and behavioral training, and ideally with a calm household where he can gradually build confidence.

Good to know
  • Not housetrained; requires significant puppy training commitment and frequent outdoor access

I am the founder and President of Rescue Tails Animal Welfare. I pull the dogs, get the vetted, adopted and run the show. I do it because I have a passion for animals and have grown up around rescue animals in need.

Service Areas Chicagoland and Surrounding, IL, USA
Adoption Process
We require a complete verified application, home visit, meet and greet . If all goes well we will do a trial sleepover before we finalize and open ended adoption so the adopter knows to return the pet back at any time if they can no longer care for it.
