 Meet Relay!

Relay came from a horrendous hoarding case 6 months ago (July 2019) and has come a long way but still needs someone in his life willing to be patient and love him. 

Through no fault of his own he can be very shy with other people but with a slow gentle hand and voice he will allow lots of pets and a few kisses on head.

He loves to be rubbed around the ears and under the collar.  He will follow you from room to room learning your routine and gets super excited and happy when you get home. Wagging his tail with excitement and big beautiful smiles in his face. 

Clay walks on a leash real close to you without and pulling or tugging.  He would benefit from some more socialization with slow introductions.
  
Must have a fenced in yard, no tie outs.  Another dog in the house to teach him the ropes and follow around would be a great benefit to him.
 
No small children or cats.  Older children that are quieter and can be respectful of his space is a must, if you have children. 
 
He is potty trained, doesn’t chew anything or counter surf.  Can be easily corrected when needed by a stern no, no need to yell as that may set him back in his progress.  
 
Clay really needs a good structured home with minimal activity and a calm environment.

*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.
