Adult Dogs Looking for a Good Home
These dogs are 5 to under 8 years old. Adult dogs are well beyond the puppy stage, but many still have years of walks, play, adventures and companionship ahead of them. Because they are fully grown, it may also be easier to get a sense of their size, energy level and personality when deciding who could fit your home.
Found an Adult Dog You Want to Meet?
Visit Chicago Animal Care and Control at 2741 S. Western Avenue, Chicago, IL 60608. CACC is open daily from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m. For a same-day adoption, plan to arrive by 5:30 p.m.
Adult dogs can sometimes receive less attention than puppies and younger dogs, so take time to open a few profiles and give this group a closer look. The dog who fits your life may already be fully grown and waiting to be noticed.
Adopt A Dog Chicago is an independent dog-adoption resource and is not Chicago Animal Care and Control. “$0” refers to CACC’s adoption-fee waiver during Clear the Shelters. Other required charges, such as an applicable City of Chicago dog license, may still apply.
