Description:

Meet Kennedy!

I'm a happy, fun loving, energetic bundle of joy. I love other dogs, fenced yards, and sitting in water. I don't need a fancy pool, but I have to have a little plastic pool to keep me cool and happy. I was nick named Dozer because I bulldoze into things sometimes, but I am very smart and have learned good manners from my foster family.

I'm a little afraid of the dark and sometimes timid around fire-works.I love going on adventures outside almost as much as I love being inside on the couch.I slobber a little when I drink, but who doesn't? I'm looking for a forever family that understands how much I need daily walks and exercise. When I'm tired, I am very mellow and will wander into my crate for a nap.

I'm curious, and find joy in unusual items - I love cardboard boxes, plastic bottles and ears....I just love to nibble and nuzzle ears (it is one of my favorite games). I have been living with kids who are 10, 13 and 17. They are a lot of fun and big enough that I won't accidentally knock them over. I also live with a small dog, a cat, two rats and a snake. I am very easy going and get along well with everyone. I sometimes become obsessed with the cat. I just want to play, but unfortunately the cat is not obsessed with me. I think I might be too big for smaller animals at first.

I would love a forever home with another dog close to my size so that we could run and play. I am well socialized, so if I can't live with another dog, I would be okay with playing at the dog park or having friends to visit for play dates.

My foster family says they will miss me very much, but they are happy to help me find my forever family. Please fill out an application if you would like to meet me.

Hugs & Kisses,

Kennedy aka "Dozer"

Thank You!

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.
