Meet Stitch, the one-and-only canine companion you'll ever need! This magnificent creature possesses a wonderful blend of dignified elegance and playful enthusiasm that’s simply enchanting. Just look into his gorgeous moss-green eyes! They're like portals to a world filled with affection and adventure! 🌟🐾 Stitch's journey hasn’t been an easy one. Originally, he found himself surrendered to Chicago Animal Care and Control in December due to his family's financial difficulties. But that’s where the magic began! Our Heartland team couldn’t resist his charm when they met him, and he quickly became a beloved member of our foster family. This lovable boy is now about 1.5 years old, the prime time for embarking on exciting escapades and enjoying cozy snuggle sessions! 🥰 Can you believe it? Stitch was adopted just weeks after his arrival, alongside his puppy buddy, Moose! Sadly, the young couple realized that raising two dogs at the same time was a tall order, and they’ve decided that finding a new home for Stitch is what’s best for him. Cue the heartbreak! 💔 But here’s where it gets even better: they’re still fostering him to give him all the love and support he deserves while searching for his forever family! Talk about a win-win! In his foster home, Stitch has proven to be housebroken and while he may not be a fan of the crate, he demonstrates great independence! With a little room to roam, he’s content and happy for up to two hours. Stitch adores canine companionship and lives harmoniously with another dog—he's quite the social butterfly! 🦋 Now, let's talk about his personality! Stitch is a protectively sweet boy, who might bark a bit at passersby, but behind those ‘boofs’ lies a gentle soul eager to bond with his people. At first, he may be a tad shy meeting new friends, but with some tasty treats and patience, he’ll quickly warm up! He is highly responsive to his humans and looks to them for guidance. His foster family describes him as loyal, affectionate, and just plain delightful. They say, “Stitch loves enrichment activities that keep his clever mind busy—he’s eager to learn and thrive with the right family!” 🎉 If a loving, enthusiastic buddy is what you seek, Stitch could very well be your perfect match! He has all the charm and character you could hope for. Remember, to adopt this sweet soul, please apply through the Buddy App! And with an adoption fee of $300, rest assured he’s neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, and Heartworm negative. Your new best friend is waiting!
