*PLEASE NOTE: We do not adopt out on a first-come/first-serve basis. Applications are accepted for a puppy and then a home check is scheduled. If there are multiple applications for a puppy, after all home checks are done, then the puppy is adopted out to the home that is the best fit for that puppy.<br/>***** All breeds listed are a best guess or based on information from our rescue partners and are not guaranteed*****<br/><br/>******Chicagoland Dog Rescue reserves the right to restrict adoption of a dog to potential adopters who live within a fifty (50) mile radius of Schaumburg, IL *****<br/><br/>Hello, my name is Oaklyn, and I am a sweet, loyal girl who loves to cuddle just as much as I love to play. My favorite activities include roughhousing, zoomies in the yard, and—my absolute favorite—nose work! If I am sniffing, I'm in my happy place. I would thrive in a home with a securely fenced yard where I can run, explore, and burn off some energy before settling in for couch snuggles. Being a shepherd mix means I am incredibly smart and love enrichment activities, although stuffed toys don't stand much of a chance—I consider them a fun challenge! Tough chew toys are definitely the better choice. I have loved nose work and Barn Hunt and want to be on the GO!<br/>I can be a little anxious in new situations and am currently enrolled in behavioral modification training, where I'm making great progress. I form deep bonds with my family and am naturally protective of the people I love.<br/>What I am looking for in a new furever home? A patient adopter who will continue helping me build confidence. In return, you'll gain a devoted companion with a big heart, a nose that's always on an adventure, and endless love to give. And someone with Shepherd experience or looking to see what a Shepherd needs to thrive would be a plus!<br/>If I sound like your kinda gal...fill out a preadoption application and a CDR volunteer will get back to you just as quick as they can!<br/>Tail wags and Cuddles-Oaklyn<br/><br/><br/>**The ADOPTION FEE for this pet is $400 which includes getting the puppy/dog up to date on rabies, distemper and bordetella vaccines, fecal test and deworming if necessary, heartworm test, spay or neuter (not including pre-surgical bloodwork) and a microchip. Free access to our weekly training classes is also included for the life of the dog, something no other rescue in the area offers.*
