Geronimo's Story

Geronimo Mastiff Male 105lbs 5 years old First of all, Geronimo is a wizard. So if you're into wizards and you're a mastiff person, you're going to fall in love. Don't say we didn't warn you. G man is an old soul. He's an empath. He wears the weight of the world in his heart. He is a love, but was wronged horribly by someone, and likely someone male as it takes more for him to trust a male human. Geronimo has completed 8 weeks of serious training to learn that the world is kind, and that he does have solid options to succeed. He's learning to accept confidence and self love on a daily basis. He has a WHOLE LOT of love to give, but he needs someone to work for it. We completely understand and think every relationship should be as such for ultimate success. He will follow his person to the end of the world. He's looking for a mastiff savvy home, without too much chaos as he's ready to lead a simple life of love and understanding from here on out— and maybe some crossword puzzles and birdwatching in the back yard.

Mission Compassion Paw Rescue's Adoption Policy

MCP is a Chicago foster based rescue. We focus on dogs who need extra advocacy, including: Pit bull-type dogs, senior animals, animals with medical or behavioral needs, and bonded pairs. We don’t view adoption as placing animals, we view it as welcoming new humans into our Pack. Because of this, our process is intentionally thoughtful and hands-on. Many approved applications ultimately result in us recommending a different dog with stronger match potential. This is part of our responsibility as advocates and something we are known and respected for. Our adoption process typically includes at least three meetings (often more) to ensure a strong, lasting match. These meetings allow time to build a relationship, communicate openly, and support a healthy transition. We are full disclosure, we know our animals well and are honest about their needs. We're hands-on from first meet-and-greet through decompression and beyond, and we are comfortable saying no at any point if the fit isn’t right. We look for organic connections and humans who understand that successful Forever relationships take time, patience, and commitment. Going slow matters to us, for our animals and for our humans. Important Adoption Expectations: All potential adopters are expected to meet their match at least three times with all household members participating in the process. Out-of-state adoptions may be considered for exceptional matches only. Multiple visits to the Chicagoland area are required. We do not ship animals. We do not allow: Gifting animals, surprise adoptions, or any adoptions without full household involvement. Adoption Fees: Dogs: $600 | Bonded pairs: $900 | Cats: $250, $325 for a pair We hold our animals and our humans close. Quality over quantity. Always.
