CHICAGO (WBBM NEWSRADIO) -- Hey everyone, meet Cobbler!

Cobbler is a 1-year-old, male Hound mix. He weighs 38.25 pounds.

Cobbler's Story

PAWS Chicago says Cobbler as an Underdog who with extra help can blossom into a Wonderdog! Stan Lee won't fit in every home, so consider your ComPETibilty score carefully before falling in love.

Take the ComPETibility quiz here.

Cobbler is a sweet, smart puppy. His foster said he “loves to give licks, snuggle with humans, sleep in the sun, and play with just about anything!” Cobbler would love to spend his entire day with you – going on walks, meeting new dog friends, and learning new tricks. He’s a fast learner and will impress you with his smarts!

Are you Cobbler’s new family? You might be if you’re an experienced, active owner who is home often and has lots of free time for training.

Do you have a home that fits Cobbler’s needs but are on the fence about adopting? Consider fostering him for a few weeks first! Fostering with the intent to adopt is a great way to see how Cobbler fits in before making things official. While fostering, you’ll have full support from PAWS for medical, behavioral, and food needs. To get started, apply to foster and reach out to acfoster@pawschicago.org.

Cobbler can’t wait to meet you!

If you’re interested in adopting this pet, there are few steps you must complete before scheduling an appointment at PAWS Chicago's Lincoln Park Adoption Center:

1. Please start by taking PAWS Chicago's ComPETibility Quiz to make sure they’re a good fit for your home. Your ComPETibility Score will help you compare your home to their needs!

2. After completing your ComPETibility Quiz, you will be emailed a link to complete your Adoption Application.

3. Finally, schedule an appointment at PAWS Chicago's Lincoln Park Adoption Center! During your appointment, you’ll be able to meet all currently-adoptable animals at our Lincoln Park Adoption Center and walk through the adoption process with our staff and volunteers.

Please note that while PAWS Chicago can’t place holds on adoptable animals for your scheduled appointment, there are always plenty of homeless pets looking for a home! If you don’t meet the perfect pet during your first visit to the Adoption Center, please feel free to schedule another appointment.
