About Me
Have you ever lost everything you knew and loved?
I have. My name is Milan, and my story started at CARE when I was just a 6-month-old puppy. I thought I had found my forever home, and for years, I was happy and loved. But life changed, and suddenly, I wasn’t part of that home anymore. I was surrendered to Chicago Animal Control—confused, scared, and heartbroken.
Then, something amazing happened. CARE didn’t forget me. They got the call that I was there and rushed to pick me up. The moment they saw me, they knew I was still the same sweet girl—just a little older, a little skinnier, and in need of love again.
Now, I’m in an amazing foster home where I’ve been gaining my strength back (I’ve put on 4 pounds and now weigh 53 pounds!). My foster family absolutely adores me and says my tail never stops wagging. I love giving kisses, going for car rides, and taking nice, easy walks. I’m potty trained, have perfect manners in the home, and never jump on furniture—I just need a super comfy bed to curl up on.
And here’s the sweetest thing—when I know you’re about to leave, I sit up and gently place my two paws on your thigh, as if to say, "Please stay a little longer." I just want to be near my people, to love and be loved.
I don’t want to lose another home—I want to find my true forever. Could you be the one to love me for the rest of my days? I promise I’ll love you right back.
I have been spayed and microchipped and have had a full veterinary checkup and vaccines. My adoption fee is $165. For more information or if you would like to meet me, please fill out an adoption survey at carenorthshore.org/dog-adoption-survey.
Love and Licks,
Milan
