Description:
Meet Lenny!

Lenny is one of 4 puppies in a litter that we are rescuing from an animal control facility. These puppies were scheduled to be put to sleep and we are trying to find foster homes for them so that we can save their lives.

Lenny is inquisitive, responding to noise/triggers more quickly than the others.

All of these puppies are very sweet and lovable. They just want to find a home to call their own.

UPDATE FROM LENNY'S FOSTER: Lenny has done a complete 180 in the last three weeks in his foster placement! He is like a different dog altogether. When I picked him up he was scared, timid, lethargic and shy. Now he is spunky, playful, curious, intelligent, gentle and loving. He snuggles and likes to lay his head on your chest to hear your heartbeat when he is sleepy. He is eager to please and training has been a breeze. We are working on bell training and he is catching on quickly. He knows "sit" and "be nice" and is starting to respond to his name, and we are working on shake, stay and drop.

Lenny loves his toys and to play fetch. He is CRAZY fast (he pulls me when we go running) and will have high energy and exercise demands, so he would benefit from a fenced in yard where he can run off some energy. He has been socializing with other dogs much larger than himself and does great. He has also been exposed to cats and basically leaves them alone.

He LOVES children and is very gentle most of the time, although sometimes he just gets so excited that he has to be reminded to "be nice". Lenny would make a great pet for any family. He is full of love and affection and is a happy puppy who needs a forever home.

*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.
