Description:

He is a calm dog when people are around.  He does get vocal when some people that he is attached to leave or if he thinks he is alone in the house.  He will whine, howl, and bark.  He has not been left alone yet since coming into our home.  There has always been someone here with him.  

 

  • House training:  He only had one accident the day he came into our house.  Other than that, he has been taken out every 3-4 hours and goes to the bathroom outside.  He doesn't really like to go into the backyard and wants to walk to do his business.
  • Kennel training:  He has been in the kennel one time and whined while he was in there.  He eventually quieted down when he knew someone was near him.  
  • Good with dogs/cats:  We have a small dog.  They do not interact much.  They will sniff each other and go on their way.  They have not played together.  They co-exist with little interaction.  We do not have cats, so it is unknown how he is with one.
  • Good with kids:  We have two teengers in the house.  He does well with them.  He is attached to my daughter and likes to sleep with her at night.  It is unknown how he would do with younger kids, who are more active.   
  • General likes/dislikes:  He enjoys walks.  He likes to sit on the top of the couch and look out the window for hours.  He really likes my husband and daughter.  He does not interact with any toys.  He doesn't lounge on a dog bed and would rather lounge on the couch.  He seems afraid to go through a door or go up a couple of stairs.  He is picky about treats and seems to like soft treats rather than hard treats.
  • Walks on a leash: He is doing well with the leash.  He walks without pulling.  He does like to stop, sit, and look while on walk. 
  • Vocal:  He is vocal when the people he is attached to leave or if he thinks he is alone in the house.  He will whine, howl, and bark.   

I think he would be best with a fenced yard.  He does try to see if he can fit through areas in the fence so needs to be supervised while outside.

*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.
