Description:
This is Salty Dog!

Salty Dog (or Buster as he's known to his foster family) is doing great. He
has made friends with the resident dog (Buckey) and is picking up the rules
and routines of the house very quickly. He enjoys wrestling with Buckley
and chasing him aroung the house and yard, playing with the ball, and
napping. His favorite past time is curling up on the closest lap and
dreaming the day away. He is the most mellow, sweetest rat terrier I've
ever met. He walks amazingly on the leash, loves riding in the car, and is
the perfect shadow. He is a playboy. Has the puppy eyes down and knows how
to get people's attention.
We have been working on being in the kennel, quietly, but he still gets
riled up when left in it while I'm out of the house. He also likes to alert
everyone to the odd noise or person walking past the house. Luckily
his bark and bite are equally harmless.

*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.
