Meet Monte:

After 4 years of living with a family, Monte was surrendered back to MARS because the owner no longer had the time to give him the attention he deserves. Monte is a sweet soul and just wants to find someone who will love him once again and give him a fur-ever home that he so desperately needs. This is a dog that once he chooses you, he is a devoted and loving companion. He will follow you around the house just to stay near you and he loves nothing better than snuggling on a couch with you and being petted and told what a wonderful boy he is. If you like to go walking, he is the dog for you as he loves smelling all the new scents around him and will happily walk by your side as he does very good on the leash….if you are a runner, he would certainly benefit being your running companion as he has very long legs that need to be stretched and exercised! He loves being outside just hanging out or looking for squirrels (one of his favorite pastimes) and he also is very good at playing fetch. A fenced in yard would be necessary for Monte.

Monte can be very shy upon first meeting him but will quickly warm up to you once he has time to be around you. Because of his shyness, he can become a bit anxious when confronted with new situations so slow introductions and gentle encouragement work best for him. He loves children and gets pretty excited around them as he just wants to lick them and be around them. However, he doesn’t realize how big he is, so close supervision around kids would be necessary. Monte is fine being in a kennel if need be, but he does best in a plastic Vari kennel/crate.

All in all, Monte is just a sweet, loving dog that given a chance, would be a wonderful dog to someone who is willing to be patient with him, shower him with love and attention and give him a loving home that he richly deserves.

*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.
