Belina's Story

If you don’t want to start from scratch with a puppy and you want a stalwart friend by your side at all times, then an adult dog may be the best choice you ever make. We’ve all heard the phrase, “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks,” but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Adult dogs have a great attention span and eagerness to please, allowing them to learn faster than more youthful members of their species. If you’re looking for a steadfast companion who will be truly grateful for a second chance at a happy life, consider adopting a dog.

Meet Belina

Join us on May 25th, from 6-9 pm for an IN-PERSON PUP-UP Adoption Event at the Lincoln Park Adoption Center. This is a one-night-only chance to meet some of the amazing dogs living in foster homes right now! Only selected dogs (with the PUP-UP Banner) will be participating in this special adoption event. 

Things to know about this event:

  • Make an appointment for the Foster PUP-UP here.
  • Please be sure to complete your ComPETibility quiz and adoption application before the event.
  • The dogs with the "Pup-Up" banner will be a part of this event. Please be sure to check their ComPETibility ratings against your own for great matches.
  • The event is first-come, first-serve for applicants who meet all adoption requirements and are a match for the selected animal. 
  • The entire household must be present for the event to ensure that the dog is the right fit for the person/family.
    • Please note that many of these wonderful dogs would do best in homes without young children.
  • If you have a resident dog, it is required to bring them along to meet the potential new canine family member!
  • If you are interested in other animals not participating in this event, please make an adoption appointment to visit the Lincoln Park Adoption Center another time.

Regular adoption fees and a $100 refundable training deposit still apply. 

Adoption Process

All PAWS Chicago dogs and cats are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and have up-to-date shots based on age and arrival date.
