Description:
Are you the special person Tuffy needs in his life?

He is scared and his coping mechanism is barking....alot....until you give him reason to trust you.

It took him a couple of weeks to trust his foster but constant reassurances finally brought Tuffy around. Now he seeks tummy rubs and gentle head scratching. He sits before digging into his breakfast and dinner and gets your attention when he needs to go outside.

Tuffy would probably do best as an only pet, and a basic obedience class would really benefit him as well as creating a bond between him and his new person.

Do you have what it takes to win over this little guy and give him a forever home? It's going to take a lot of love and commitment on your part, but the rewards will be worth it. Tuffy needs you and will love you forever.

*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.
