Description:

Tango is a supersweet boy that loves, loves, loves people and other pets. He was saved from a high kill shelter in the south and is very excited about meeting his forever family.

He is crate trained and knows to sit for a treat or his food. His favorite past times include playing fetch and rough housing with the other dogs in his home. He also LOVES squeeky toy.

Here is an update from Tango/Charlie's foster family!

Charlie has been with us now for almost a week and I wish I could keep the little man. Its as if we have had him forever. We have fostered a number of dogs but never have we had one like Charlie, he is so good. He is completely potty trained, has not had any accidents. He sleeps in his kennel at night with no issues (first night he whined for a few minutes then stopped once we put a blanket over his kennel) Yesterday was his first day of being in the kennel while my husband and I were both at work---when I got home there was no issues no messes.

Charlie has been getting walked every day around the block by my 8 year old son, he does pull a little but mostly at first because of his excitement. He does not chase our three cats at all---really pays no attention to them. We have a 5 year old female GS that he likes to play with but when he is told to settle down he will. He sits for treats and we are working on “laying down” and “sit”. Very smart little guy and so mellow for a puppy. In the mornings I leave for work early while my family sleeps, I do not kennel him when I leave because usually my husband will be up an hour or so after I leave—Charlie has not chewed anything---

He does love his toys which we call his baby’s, and he REALLY REALLY loves bones. If given a bone, he will be occupied for hours. He plays fetch off our deck with us as well. He does bark at passers by and this is something we allow because we like our dogs to be alert.
Surprisingly he comes to CHARLIE very very well….I am going to miss the little guy when he goes. He would be excellent for any family, with or without dog experience. My kids are 5 and 8 and he does fine, we had a toddler over the other night (3) and she was all over Charlie and he just loved it! He is truly amazing and would be a great Christmas Gift to a family that is ready for a new family member!

Won't you please consider adopting this sweet boy?

*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.
