Saphie's Story
Meet Saphie, a young, energetic gal who loves long and frequent walks. Saphie is a quick study who knows how to sit and come when called. She knows when it’s time for a walk when she hears the jingle of her leash, she will wait for her leash to be clipped to her. She is an affectionate snuggle bug who thinks she’s a lap dog, and your lap is where she likes to be. She loves attention and lots of belly rubs. Saphie enjoys playing with other dogs who match her energy level. Saphie adores people, and she would love a family where she can get daily doses of attention and play sessions. She can be home alone for a few hours, and she would benefit from an owner who can continue her crate training to make her more confident when she’s alone.
Are you Saphie’s loving home? You might be if you’re an experienced owner who lives in a home with adults-only or older children who are comfortable playing with a young, active dog. If you have time to spend walking and exercising with Saphie each day, you might just be the perfect fit for her!

If you’re interested in adopting this pet, please complete the following steps:
1. 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 each pet’s needs!
2. After completing your ComPETibility Quiz, you will be emailed a link to complete your Adoption Application.
3. After finishing the adoption application, complete the Adoption Inquiry Form! Once this form is submitted, our Adoption Team will take a look at your adoption inquiry and reach out within a few days.
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, please feel free to complete a new Adoption Inquiry Form or visit our Adoption Center. Walk-ins are always welcome, but appointments are recommended for a more efficient visit!

Why Adopt?
Adoption is one of the best ways to save a life. Only a few thousand more adoptions each year in Chicago, a city of millions of people, and we will be a No Kill community! You can make a real difference.
At PAWS Chicago, we keep working to grow our operations to save more homeless pets. It's how we've gone from saving a few dozen to 5,000 pets a year. But it is our adopters who make the real magic happen by bringing these loving pets home. Adopt a pet and spread the word!
First Time Fostering? Learn More
There are many animals that need us today. Each foster family allow us to save more homeless pets by opening their home to a pet or litter in need of love and care for a few weeks. When we are able to send a pet or litter to foster, it frees up space in our Medical Center to bring in more pets in need.
Last year, our foster families took in 1,921 pets. Some needed a peaceful place to recover from illness or injury. Puppies and kittens just needed a bit of time in a home environment with good socialization so they could grow big enough to have their spay/neuter surgery before adoption. Other pets needed a calm and relaxing break from the stress of shelter life.
