Description:
From Adelaide's foster:
Addy is doing great. When she came to us, she was so very timid and nervous. She's really come along with her confidence and has relaxed. We are working diligently to reassure her that people can be trusted, through lots of gentle petting, soothing voices, praise, etc. She is invited to sleep on the bed but often defers to our other pups who stake out a claim on the bed.... so she usually chooses to sleep on a dog bed on the floor in our bedroom.
Here are some of her attributes:
*gives kisses when she is lavished with attention :)
*comes running to you when you call "Addy" and whistle loudly - both outdoors and indoors
*never jumps up on people. never!
*does not beg for food at the dinner table, but sits nicely when offered a doggie treat
*very quiet - the only time we've heard her bark was at a chipmunk who was teasing her from the birdfeeder
*housetrained - does all her potties outside - when taken outdoors and told "go potty" she always does her business right away
*does fine in a crate - goes in crate nicely and sits in there quietly without making a peep - no signs of anxiety in her crate
*very "low profile" - you'd hardly notice she was in your home (no begging, no barking, no jumping up, etc)
*excellent with our kids (ages 7 and 9)
*submissive to other dogs
*has never tried to jump our 4' fence
*stands back when a door is opened and waits to be invited through
*rides in a car quietly
*has met several of our friends and relatives, and stands back yet wags her stumpy little tail in hesitant anticipation :)
*walks beautifully on a leash without pulling (she only pulls if she spies a chipmunk or squirrel LOL)
*overall just a real sweetheart
*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification! Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.
*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care. Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks. Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.
