Meet Leif, this boy is between one and two years old. Not much is known of his past. We know he is terribly skinny so we are certain his future will be MUCH brighter!

Leif never had a chance to be a puppy where he came from so he is learning manners and is VERY smart. He is treat motivated and since he is very, very skinny, we are sure he won't mind if you throw in a few extra!

Because he still thinks he is a puppy, he is very mouthy and seems to think his human foster siblings are his litter mates. He needs a home with older kids around 12 to make sure they will be strong pack leaders and can help him safely learn what is acceptable play. Leif also would like a home with another dog. This will help him learn "good" dog behaviors even faster.

*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.
