Description:
Meet Flo!! She is an adorable little girl with a lot of character, she loves to play and is really inquisitive about toys and especially about food, she has a really good sniffer and will find anything that smells yummy, and because of that she really likes the treat dispensing toys or ones with a puzzle. She would love to have someone to play with but she also likes her alone time. She is a really gentle and quiet dog but may bark when seeing someone outside the window also may whine for more food and water. She often waits by the door to be let out and comes back with a whistle or a call of her name. When going outside she loves to run, despite her stubby legs, she is quite fast and can jump rather high so a fenced in yard would be best with plenty of room to run. When going on walks she does pull quite a bit but a harness does really help, also when on walks she may bark at other people or dogs. She can be kenneled if need be, she kennels easily and doesn't whine when inside it. She loves belly rubs and pets. She is a loving dog and would just love a home that will love her back.
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. Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS. We do not transport to potential adopters. How to learn more about a pet: Complete the application (click on the button above) to start our process for adopting or fostering a MARS Pet. Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks. Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. 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. Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. 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 without knowing a pet’s full history.
