The WBBM PAWS Chicago Pet of the Week is Leah. She is a strong and beautiful girl. She is very happy to learn new tricks, if you bring the treats! Leah is full of energy so she'll need your time and attention, but she's so worth it. She's almost 4 years old and will make a very fun companion. Leah has been in several foster homes already so PAWS Chicago knows so much about her and how to care for her.

Because PAWS has been taking hundreds of dogs each month from Chicago Animal Care and Control, and just rescued 79 dogs and cats from a shuttered shelter in a Caribbean island, they have many dogs and cats ready or almost ready for adoption in foster care. You can start the adoption process right now at pawschicago.org where you can preview available pets and make an appointment to meet a few.
