Description:
Maddie is a 2 year old all natural black & tan purebred Doberman Pinscher. She is underweight and needs to put on some much needed pounds. Maddie loves people and gets along with everyone she meets. Maddie is good with other dogs and has not been cat tested yet. She was in a high kill shelter and we pulled her right before she was going to be put to sleep. We were told by the shelter that she is heartworm positive and will need to be treated...but no worries, she's a strong young girl and can get over this obstacle. Heartworm is a very treatable condition which is becoming more and more prevalent as owners choose not to provide heartworm protection for their dogs and cats. It is not contagious to other animals or humans. Heartworm is a disease contracted from the bite of an infected mosquito. If left untreated, it is fatal. Sadly, many rescues cannot afford to treat heartworm as the medicine is in high demand and very costly. Fortunately, MARS has stepped up for this sweetheart and Maddie will get the care she needs. Maddie needs a fenced yard with no invisible fencing. Hurry and get your application in right away. Once this girl gets healthier she won't be around long. She is so sweet and well behaved. Completely trustworthy in the house, great in the car, fine with dogs of all sizes. She already looks and feels 100% better as you can see from her most recent photos. We can't say enough good things about Maddie.
*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.
