Cortina

My story

All these surrenders, sometimes it feels like no one is keeping their dog. Then we remember that the thousands of dogs we see could easily multiply with our city’s population. Cortina came to us happy despite her situation. She was skinny but patience and showed an abundance of manners without being asked. Cortina is ready to wiggle into someone’s heart. She just asks that it is a real commitment not a temporary phase. Chicago Animal Care and Control is located at 2741 S. Western Ave., Chicago, IL, and is open from 12pm to 7pm daily. Walk-in visitors are welcome and helped on a first-come, first-served basis. If you are planning to adopt the day you visit, please plan to arrive before 5:30pm. Visitors arriving after 5:30pm will still be able to view animals in Pavilions A-B-C until 7pm. All dogs will be spayed/neutered and vaccinated before adoption. All household members should be present to meet dogs (especially those under 18 and any decision-makers). We recommend and can arrange dog-to-dog meet and greets for your current dog(s) to meet a potential dog sibling at the shelter. You will need to show proof of up-to-date rabies vaccination for your dog(s). Slow, cautious, and appropriate introductions are recommended after you allow time for decompression for the shelter dog. If you have any questions, please email caccpetfinder@gmail.com

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Cortina, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
