Description:
Hi, my name is Henry.

I'm not sure how I ended up at the dog pound in Iowa, but a nice lady took me out and now I'm at a foster home. I was transported to Minneapolis where another loving foster home was waiting for me.

You might think I don't look like an English Pointer because someone docked my tail, but I'm all Pointer at heart. I love dog parks and am everyone's friend. Right now I have a crush on my foster sister who is a chocolate lab mix, but we're both going to be "going to the vet" soon so I don't think it will be a very fruitful relationship.

There are lots of dogs at my current foster home, including some little itty bitty ones, and other big guys, like me. I'm doing fine with everybody.

A nice lady took me to the cat room at the local pound to try to test what I thought of cats. I have to tell you, I didn't really care about the cats. I just wanted to go play with some of the other dogs!!

I am very friendly, but a bit sensitive-- someone in my past wasn't very nice to me, but I'm not holding that against anyone or anything. I am a pretty active dog, who would do well with a safe place to run. My human friends say that a fenced yard would be good, or a trip just about every day to the dog park so I can run off all my energy!

I also love car rides. Won't you be my new love?

An update from Henry's Foster:

Henry fits in really well with the family. He gets along with the little dog, the big dog, the 4 cats and loves the 10 year old boy. He hasn't had any accidents in the house, he chews just like most dogs. He not any more hyper than any other young dog. He minds and is easily trained. He walks pretty well on a leash. Sort of a clodhopper but I'm sure thats do to youth. He's just a real lovable family dog. Good, lovable temperament.

*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.
