Searching for my forever home!

Meet Westly, Look at those ears!!! Westly is about the sweetest dog you will ever meet. He loves people, loves other dogs, and really just wants to be where ever you are.

He has never met a stranger and will run up to you and introduce himself with a hound voice. What a hound dog. :)

Please help us help Westly He is about 45 pounds and about 1 year old. Westly is a fairly tall dog. In some of his pictures, he looks like he may be beagle sized, but he is much taller.
He is great with other dogs, loves kids and people of all ages. He attended our "meet and greet" event recently and was very well behaved. He enjoyed meeting all of the new people and dogs at the event.

Some basic information on Treeing Walker Coonhounds, since they aren't common in Minnesota:
Treeing Walker Coonhounds are great with children and get along well with other dogs. They love to nest and cuddle and getting a walker hound out of your bed will be a feat in itself. Generally easy to train with little trouble, they make excellent pets if well exercised. Training must be consistent as Walker hounds are extremely intelligent.
Because they are eager to please, loving, intelligent and confident, they make a splendid companion dog for an owner willing to give them proper exercise.

*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.
