Rico's Story
Type of Foster Home:
Rico is a 1-year-old cutie who has the biggest ears! He is 40 pounds. Rico would love a break from the shelter for a few weeks. He is healthy and housebroken! He knows "sit" and "down" and loves to show off his tricks. He loves to play with tennis balls and squeaky toys! Rico would do best with a slow intro to a resident pup. He would do well in a home with kids 12 and older.
How to Foster Rico:
New fosters can take the first step by learning about fostering and completing the Foster Care Application. Veteran foster parents can email acfoster@pawschicago.org to schedule a pickup appointment.
Rico is available for foster pick-up at the Adoption Canter at 1997 N. Clybourn Ave.

If you’re interested in adopting this pet, there are few steps you must complete before scheduling an appointment at our Lincoln Park Adoption Center:
1. Please start by taking our ComPETibility Quiz to make sure they’re a good fit for your home. Your ComPETibility Score will help you compare your home to their needs!
2. After completing your ComPETibility Quiz, you will be emailed a link to complete your Adoption Application.
3. Finally, schedule an appointment at our Lincoln Park Adoption Center! During your appointment, you’ll be able to meet all currently adoptable animals at our Lincoln Park Adoption Center and walk through the adoption process with our staff and volunteers. Appointments are not required but encouraged for a more efficient visit.
Please note that while we can’t place holds on adoptable animals for your scheduled appointment, there are always plenty of homeless pets looking for a home! If you don’t meet the perfect pet during your first visit to the Adoption Center, please feel free to schedule another appointment.
Want another way to spend time with our adoptable (or soon-to-be-adoptable) pets? Consider fostering.
