Description:
SPECIAL ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS: Larry is a puppy mill survivor and needs:
Meet Larry! He is proving to be a quick learner and enjoying his new life! Larry responds super fast to new challenges (stairs, grooming, leash training, meeting new people) when Introduced to them calmly and with encouragement. He responds to praise "baby talk" more so than treats.
He handles household noises well. Curious more so than scared. He handles teenage roudiness in stride. He gets along great with both resident dogs, one big and one small. He is good with the resident cat.
Larry is playing with toys, plays tug-of-war with a small dog in his foster home, likes chewies. Rides well in the car. He sleeps quietly in his crate all night. Does his business outside and if let out every 3-4 hours does not go inside.
He has warmed up to his foster mom and now wags his tail, approaches her confidently on his own and when called.
What he needs: another dog Iin the home. He doesnt like to be alone. Calm, noninvasive meetings with new people. (He was tested with kids and he watched from his safe spot. When his foster mom brought him closer to the kids, he allowed them to pet him but retreated to his bed where he could continue to observe.) We think he will warm up to others if given the time, space and patience.
He still avoids "capture" so he needs a handler who understands the concept of keeping him confined and his flight risk. This is why a fenced-in yard is important, and a very secure harness/leash when taking Larry for walks.
*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.
