Description:

Meet Jacco!

Friendly with people and dogs of all sizes
Gentle and very good around children
Loves toys, especially if they squeak
Learning to play fetch
Kennel trained (but doesn't need it)
Curious about the cats at his foster home
Loves walks, in any weather, and appreciates a leisurely pace
Great watch dog and barks when you'd expect, but has never shown any aggression
Loves to spend time romping with his foster's resident dog, but reserved at the dog park

Jacco's foster family says that he is the sweetest 60lb puppy you’ll ever meet! From appearances, Jacco’s first year of life was not an easy one. When Jacco came to MARS, he was undernourished and very thin, his coat was dull and his back legs had sore spots and looked to be deformed as if he had been living in a kennel too small for him. He had a bad cough, big sad eyes and little energy. He's now put on weight,his coat is now shiny, soft and his legs look normal. He has gained a lot of confidence and he is a bundle of clumsy energy. He needs to get outdoors for exercise everyday. He doesn't stay in a kennel during the day as he is fully housebroken and not destructive. He chooses to sleep in the kennel at night but they don't close it.

Could Jacco be the new family companion you've been searching for?

*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.
