Thanks for your interest in a pet from A.R.F.! If you see a pet here, they are still available for adoption and you should apply through our adoption application on our website at  https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/  

Fennis is one of several Chihuahua mix dogs that came from a Tennessee hoarding situation. One brother has been adopted.  He is approximately 1 year old and weighs around 15 pounds.  He is healthy, neutered, microchipped and up to date on shots. He likes to hang around his brother (Fred) and is good with other dogs and loves walks. He is house trained and is accustomed to sleeping in a dog bed on the floor or under a bed. He loves affection but has grown up without one on one attention. He is shy and scared around new people. When unsure he goes under a bed. Because he was not handled much it will take some time for him to come out of his shell and express his loving nature. But he is interested in what is happening in the house, especially the kitchen. He observes his foster around the house and is generally curious. He has started sleeping near the office desk where his foster works. He is good in a car and likes to play. He would do well in a home where he is not left alone for a long period of time. Fennis is waiting for his special person or family to give him a new life.

Fennis is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, and neutered.  His new family will be required to complete a basic obedience course of their choosing.

Fennis's adoption fee is $300.  A meeting will not be scheduled until you have an approved application, so if you're interested in adopting Fennis fill out an Online Application today!

Once your application has been approved, an ARF volunteer will contact you to arrange a meeting.

Thank you for considering a rescue pet from A.R.F.-Animal Rescue Foundation! We are  based in Wheaton, IL and conduct adoption events in the DuPage County area. If you are interested in adopting one of our pets, please submit an adoption application at https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/ 

Adoption appointments are scheduled based on the order of applications received, so submit your application early! Submitting an application does not commit you to any animal but does get you a head start with the adoption approval process. Due to a high volume of applications, we are often unable to respond to questions or schedule meetings until your application has been approved. More information about our adoption process can be found on our website here: https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/

As an all-volunteer, foster home-based organization, A.R.F. Animal Rescue Foundation does not have a facility where applicants can visit our animals. Please visit https://www.arf-il.org/events/ for a list of our upcoming adoption events. 

Thank you for choosing to adopt, not shop!
