Description:

Bettyjo (aka Beulah) is a massive pile of love. She is 130 lbs and prefers to sleep WOTH her people. However, she may settle for a doggy bed next to her humans if she gets lots of pets and maybe a bedtime story. She gets along very well with other large dogs. It is not recommended she go to a home with small dogs as she is rather clumsy and might squish them.

Anyone that has seen Beethoven remembers the scene where the dog shakes his head, flinging mud and drool everywhere. Well, this time the movie magic IS actually like real life! Beulah is NOT a dry mouth. She's....juicy....

Beulah would love a family that has sleepovers with kids for her to smother. She likes to play with the sprinkler and is generally a wonderful, laid back girl.

She is 130lbs and solid. Currently, her fosters are attempting to introduce her to a gentle leader because she is STRONG.

Saint Bernards are a unique breed and should be researched before adding one to your family. Chronic ear infections are very common and Beulah is no exception. She sheds and drools constantly. A Privacy fence is a must as she will jump a chainlink and electric fences are a no go for this girl. Saints do not do well in the heat. They eat a lot and are generally higher maintenance pets. That said, Saint are incredible. Dogs like Beulah can turn your life upside down and transform random moments into lifelong memories.

*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.
