In the shelter’s words
Meet Mickey! Mickey is a 13-week-old terrier mix boy (born mid-June 2026) with a sweet and playful spirit that's just beginning to shine. He spent his early weeks living under a porch with no human interaction, so he comes to us a little timid at first — but here's the wonderful part: he warms up quickly once he realizes he's safe and loved. Watching Mickey bloom as he discovers what it means to have a family and a home is truly special. This gentle boy is very sweet and playful, and he's already showing so much personality and affection once he settles in. He gets along great with other dogs, kids, and cats, making him a wonderful addition to almost any family. He would do best in a home with older, respectful children ages 8 and up. He's currently working on potty training, so he'll need patient, consistent guidance — but he's eager to learn and eager to please. He is around 8 lbs and will be medium sized when full grown. Mickey is looking for a patient, loving family who understands that building trust takes time and who will celebrate every small milestone as he grows. If you're ready to give this sweet boy the safe, nurturing home he deserves and watch him blossom into his best self, Mickey is waiting for you! The adoption fee of $550 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm, and any other necessary medical treatment to ensure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe the breed, since our pups all come from shelters, we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *Please note that we are a foster home-based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.
