Finn's Story

Finn has been described as an older, friendly dog with loose and wiggly body language. He gets very excited when he sees people from his kennel. Finn enjoys playing with specific toys and would enjoy a couple walks everyday to get out some energy. Finn can be nervous at first, but with some time and patience, he will make a great companion. He looks forward to forming a tight bond in a forever home!

Are you Finn’s new family? You might be if your household does not have kids or cats, as Finn is a bit picky with who he socializes with. Finn can be left alone for several hours at a time, but will be waiting for you when you get home! He is happy to live alongside you wherever, but would prefer to have a private entrance into the home. If you can provide Finn the support and care he needs, he may just be the perfect fit for you!

Meet Finn

Join us for our Spring Adopt-A-Thon from May 16-18th at our Lincoln Park Adoption Center (1997 N. Clybourn Ave)! We will be extending our hours and adding appointments to help many homeless pets find their families this spring. All animals with the "Spring AAT" banner will be at our adoption center ready to meet you! Adoption fees will be 50% off for select animals.

If you are interested in adopting this pet, there are a 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 are a good fit for your home.
  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 will be able to meet all currently-adoptable animals at our Lincoln Park Adoption Center.

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.
