The B-A-R

I’m not sure if I’m Irish. I’m at least 40% labradorian and 30% retrieveran - we lost some records (don’t tell ICE). but since my name is Charlie, we’re rolling with it. human is sending out an update to our mailing list this week. idk what a mailing list is…they’re just telling me what to type. so if you’re not on it already, sign up at www.chicagodogbar.com!

Woof! This rain stinks!! Perfect Friday to stay in with your best friend(s) and order a pizza, right? Well, now you can do just that AND help pups caught in a j-a-m at the same time thanks to and their 2nd annual, “Slice to Meet You” campaign!

For every one of their special $35 pizzas purchased, Piece will send a $70 donation to - the Midwest’s largest No-Kill animal shelter! That’s right - $10 from Piece, and $10 from six generous matching donors for EACH PIZZA SOLD!

Learn more about the great work being done at pawschicago.org (while you’re waiting for your pizza)!!!

we could never forget the bravest boy! HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUELLER!!!! How are you FIVE!!? It feels like just yesterday you were swallowing corn by the cob! as opposed to corn ON the cob, which is much safer to inhale. we love you bubba!!!

p.s. the second five years are better than the first, but it has nothing to do with you showing up. just kidding, butthead. Love,Griswold

first, guy human turns 40…and now Griswold is 10?!? where does the time go?? HAPPY 10th BDAY TO THE BESTEST BOY (and cuddle buddy/pillow)!!! we love you Griz and hope your day is nothing but cushions, naps, stealing seats - everything comfy!!! lucky for you, we have some control of that!!!

we might not have thumbs, but we can count to five! introducing the latest addition to family of fosters, Charlie! Charlie’s a 3-month-old lab/retriever mix who’s incredibly smart, playful, and like his predecessor Olive, has some mad soccer skills. thank you to all the families of our previous fosters who adopted, not shop-ted. the addition to your families allowed us to give Charlie a Christmas in a loving home. needless to say, it went from poopy to fresh AF. hit us up for details if you’re interested in adopting this guy, or check out his bio on the website! merry Christmas, happy Hanukkah, happy Kwanzaa, and happy any other holiday that gives you an excuse to paw-ty on a weekday!!!

Happy Veterans’ Day from The B-A-R! Today, we remember and honor all who have served or are actively serving. Thank you for your service!

What in the dog crap is all of this? At least we got lots of cheese out of it. Happy HOWLoween…I guess. (That’s what the humans told us to say). -Griswold and Bueller

Our Little Miss Sunshine, Olive, was adopted today! We are thrilled that she has found her forever home! You will always hold a special place in our hearts. Make sure to show your new fam your amazing soccer skills! Love you, ya little freak! Xoxo - your big bros, Griswold & Bueller

Happy Griswold, Bueller and Olive! You bring so much joy and hair to our lives! Thank dog for Dyson! We wouldn’t have it any other way! Love you! -lady and guy human. (P.S. Olive is still up for adoption…just saying. She’s pretty cute)!
