NLOL is always in need of foster homes for our adoptable pooches, but one is desperate for your help right now! Karl is a former "yard dog" who needs a firm handler and lots of love and training! He is a nice manageable size at 35-40 lbs, and is full-grown - we estimate his age at around 7 years. Karl is extremely loving with his human pals but would be best placed in a home without other dogs.

If you or someone you know might be interested in fostering this great dog, please fill out a Foster Application or email chicago@nlol.org for more information. Thank you for considering fostering a priority NLOL dog!

Who We Are

New Leash On Life Chicago is an entirely volunteer run, nonprofit organization committed to finding loving homes for shelter dogs who would otherwise be euthanized. Through our adoption, foster and education programs, NLOL Chicago addresses the nationwide issue of pet overpopulation and the importance of spay/neuter. The goal of NLOL Chicago is that of consistent advocacy for those forgotten animals - speaking for those who cannot speak for themselves.

NLOL Chicago does not discriminate by age or breed. Our adoption fee is $200, and our dogs are fully vaccinated, spayed or neutered, and microchipped prior to adoption. To adopt an NLOL Chicago dog, please fill out and submit an Adoption Application! If fostering is your thing, send us a Foster Application.

We invite you to join us as we work to save dogs and puppies from the cruelty of abuse and neglect and expose them to the wonders of love and compassion. By adopting, fostering, volunteering or making a tax deductible donation, you can make a real difference in the lives of innocent animals who deserve a happy, healthy pain-free life.

We appreciate your support!
