Description:

Daphne and her sister Dixie are cute Puggles. They came to MARS to find a forever home. They do not need to be adopted together.

Update from current foster home:

Daphne is shy initially, but full of so much love! She is finally settling in to our routine and trusting all of us. As you can tell in the look on her face in this picture .. she is loving life. What a happy pup. She still gets a little nervous when a person is looming over her, or raising hands up or leaning over her, because they look so big to her, but she is not aggressive, just nervous.

Daphne has made a lot of progress in building trust in her human companions. At first, she was too worried to eat when the foster family was nearby. Now she is very comfortable with her foster mom sitting right with her, hand in bowl, petting her.

Daphne is doing great in the kennel. She complains a bit when we leave the house, just a little whining, but settles down. She loves cuddles , a pro lap dog and kisses giver :)

Update 2/22:
Daphne is doing terrific. She does great on a leash, stays close when off leash in a fenced in area, lets us know when she needs to go out, can sit on command and stay until told when she can have her dinner, goes to the kennel gladly each time. She is super food motivated!!

She has gotten along with all the pups that have come over for a visit. (From 5 lb morkies to 100lb labs). She is still very apprehensive of new people. She just keeps an eye on them and stays in her favorite place. But, boy, is she a different dog when she's with people she trusts. (Which is a growing number all the time; she walks around our parents' house like she owns it. She has become very comfortable; even with our siblings and their families there.

She loves balls and playing tug with a soft "professionally un-stuffed" (by our dog) toy. She chews bones like a champ! She gets beyond excited and jumps all over when we get home. It's almost like she thinks our legs are a trampoline to bounce off. We are working to correct this behavior. We love how excited she gets, but realize that no everyone might like it. I am so happy with the progress she has made. We just love her :)

*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.
