ion on our website at .arf-il/adopt/application/ Meet Caesar THIS IS A COURTESY POST ONLY. THE SURRENDERING OWNER, NOT A.R.F., IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL INFORMATION PROVIDED, AND FOR COMMUNICATIONS WITH AND APPROVAL OR DENIAL OF APPLICANTS FOR THIS DOG. Caesar is a 4 year old male Red-nosed Pitbull who weighs in at approximately 50 pounds. His sister, Julia, is available as well. If you are still interested, please read more below. Caesar was abandoned with his sister, Julia, in a park by his human about 1 month ago. After a short stint at the local animal control as a stray, he and his sister were claimed by a very kind person who knew the dogs and gave them a temporary home to keep them safe until they could find their forever home(s). Caesar is a sweet, loving guy who stays very close to his person(s) for a sense of security. He is curious and loves chew toys. He is less out-going than his sister and looks to her for confidence at times. Caesar enjoys children age 10 or older due to the sometimes unpredictable behaviors, movements and vocals of younger children. He has not been exposed to cats and is yet to be tested with other dogs other than his sister. He was housetrained but with the upheaval and uncertainty in his life recently, there have been mishaps. With a routine schedule, he should be reliably trained again quickly. He has not yet shown that he understands commands and needs work on leash-walks. He is eager to please and treat motivated so additional training on these should not be difficult, and this is an opportunity to form a solid bond with his person/people and increase his confidence and your enjoyment! Caesar's sister, Julia, is currently his "go-to" for comfort when they are together but they can be adopted separately. Caesar is neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccines and heartworm negative. As with all dogs, he will need to be placed on a heartworm preventative during mosquito weather to keep him healthy. If you are interested in adopting this dog, fill out an Online Application today! Once your application has been processed, the owner will contact you to arrange a meeting. The owner will be asking for a donation from adopters of $225 each or $375 for both. 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 .arf-il/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: .arf-il/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 .arf-il/events/ for a list of our upcoming adoption events. Thank you for choosing to adopt, not shop!

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
