What is 'What About Me?'

What About Me?

What About Me? Is a group of animal rescuers located in and around Chicago, IL. We are looking for forever homes or even foster homes for urgent dogs that have been in boarding and kennels for far too long.

The dogs you see listed were once urgent. You helped save their lives. However now that they were given the right to live, they eventually will lose the will.

When a rescue saves a dog it doesn't mean that he/she has a home. It means they are safe. If the person who offered to adopt/foster backs out, that dog goes into boarding or a kennel until they find a foster home. So many dogs need saved and foster homes are limited.

Each dog has it's own character. Like humans. Some can't be housed with cats. Some can't be housed with other dogs. Some prefer women. Some prefer men. Some are old and just want a lazy older household.

Either way. Unless they find a temporary home, they are placed behind bars with cold floors. There is NOTHING WRONG with these dogs. They simply are lonely and scared. They need someone willing to share a home with them. Even if only for a short time.

When you foster you don't pay a penny! The rescue pays for all supplies (food, leashes, collars, medical, training, ect.) All you have to do is open up your home and a little spare time.

Before you adopt you can always foster to see if it is a good fit.

These babies are scared and lonely and need love.
Can you help them?
