Description:

Lenny needs a foster home!

Lenny is coming to us from a rural shelter where his future was grim. MARS agreed to help this boy to find his new FOREVER home.

Lenny is very nice- at first does not trust new people- but when he gets
a treat he changes his mind in a hurry! Once he knows you, he is very friendly. Lenny prefers the company of female dogs or puppies, over male dogs. He is already housetrained and has a very calm demeanor.

Lenny is a very sweet boy who just needs a warm place to lay his head, and someone to give him the love and attention he deserves. He would make a great addition to any home.

A NOTE FROM HIS EMERGENCY FOSTER HOME:

He has been an absolute favorite to foster.

Whoever came up with the phrase "gentle giant" must have known Lenny.

He truly is a gentle giant. He just follows us from room to room like a big adorable shadow. The only attention he asks for is an occasional petting & kiss on the head.

He loves his walks but doesn't need constant exercise. The walks are important though because he is a little bit overweight. Also, he really enjoys chew toys but he's a BIG guy so he needs some seriously strong toys.

He has been tolerant of all of the situations we've put him in. He's housebroken and sleeps on a doggie bed on the floor next to our bed. He also barks to alert you of anyone coming in your yard or house.

If you are looking for a very mellow, sweet, loving BIG boy then Lenny will capture your heart.

URGENT: Lenny needs a temporary foster home, while we work to find a forever home. We provide the food and cover all authorized medical expenses.

You simply provide a safe, loving home!

Why not take this opportunity to make a huge difference in the life of a sweet boy who needs some help?

*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.
