New Leash On Life

Can't say enough good things about NLOL Chicago! I adopted Teddy from them 8 years ago, and to this day they still keep in touch with me and help me with any questions I might have! They are 100% volunteer run so they don't have an actual shelter facility, just their homes and their hearts. They genuinely enjoy hearing his updates and even seeing him at events over the years!If you have other pets in the home, of course they should be spayed/neutered to adopt another. That's a known fact of most reputable rescue organizations. :)

I first found NLOL Chicago through friends who adopted their pup through them. This is the most extraordinary group of folx that go above and beyond for the dogs in their care. I started out as a foster for Patch, but quickly fell in love with him. He had a lot of medical issues, but the rescue paid for his treatment and were committed to making sure that he was well taken care of. It has been a year since Patch joined our family and I am so thankful.

I want to give more than 5 stars for NLOL. Our adoption counselor Jackie is just amazing in terms of support she provides! She checks in with me about the dog almost everyday provide appropriate support and guidance every time when I was faced with difficulties because the dog was not fully house trained. NLOL offers two week foster period before adoption, which is a wonderful mechanism to get to know the dog before the big commitment. I am still in the middle of the foster period but I am just beyond impressed by the support I was given. It has been an wonderful experience so far. I would recommend NLOL to everyone who is considering adopting a dog!
