Description:

Mortimer is a good boy who is playful yet is able to relax with you on the couch or in bed. He is a great cuddle buddy and loves to be wherever the action is! He also loves to play with his Boston Terrier foster sister and is good at sharing his toys and food with her. He has played with a number of other dogs under his foster mom’s watch and does very well as long as both dogs are off leash. He seems to have a complex when he is on a leash and encounters other dogs, but we are trying to work on it! He is fully house-trained and knows some basic commands. He is amazing with kids but, sadly, he may do better in a home without young children because he becomes protective of them, making strangers in public and house visitors uncomfortable.

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.

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.
