BEWARE!! There are many 'rescues' that are nothing more than glorified puppy brokers!

Be sure that ANY animal you adopt is fully vetted, including spay/neuter, microchip, and all necessary shots and tests. Reputable rescues include all this, and more!  You don't want to fall victim to 'puppies for profit' from a non-legitimate rescue!
The below listed dogs are courtesy posting for other shelters and rescues.  Please contact them for more information as the adoption will be through their organizations.

My requirements:

-Must be only pet
-6ft privacy/wooden fenced yard
- Kids 10 years and older

Hi, I'm Jasmine, and I'm an absolutely gorgeous Alaskan Malamute who is looking for her forever home. I need someone who loves a big dog with a big heart. My breed is hardworking, intelligent and affectionate. I'm a gentle giant who wants a couch big enough for me to snuggle up on!

I am all about getting attention from my people. I've got lots of tricks to get people to give me tummy rubs- I know exactly how much to tilt my head to get what I want! My medium energy level means that I'm up for a long walk, but afterwards I want to chill out with you at home. Work hard, play hard!

I know my basic commands very well, and I would do well in advanced obedience or agility classes. Working with my brain will tire me out just as much as running around, so give me a puzzle toy or give me a job to do!
​
I need to be an only pet, but don't worry, I'll be enough for you. I prefer people to other dogs and cats. Cats are a big NO for me; they aren't going to like me. I need a human who is the leader of the pack, because if a Malamute doesn't have a leader, they end up leading you, instead of the other way around. If my new home has kids, they should be 10 years or older. My new home should have a 6 foot privacy or wooden fenced in yard-Invisible Fences or tie-outs aren't enough to keep me in. If you're looking for a big, strong girl who is affectionate and loyal, and you don't mind me leaving my hair everywhere, I'm the one for you! Come in and meet me today!

Jasmine is available at West Suburban Humane Society in Downers Grove, IL.  To inquire about Jasmine contact them at
