Description:
Tina is a very sweet and quiet dog. She is initially shy around new people and situations, and will need a calmer environment in order to become happily settled. We have taken to calling her “pinwheel” due to the very expressive way she wags her tail in a circle like an airplane propeller. She is housetrained and has not had any accidents since coming to our home. Tina gets along well with our resident dog, but is, so far, not at all interested in playing. She is also not really interested playing with people but would much rather get petted all day long. We are continuing to work with her on her behavior around our resident cat and chickens. Sometimes she ignores them, and sometimes she insists on trying to get to know them better. She is a big fan of laying next to you and taking a nap. She is also very interested in food, the people variety more than the dog variety. Tina will spend the night quietly sleeping in her crate, but would much rather be beside you in bed. While good during the night, Tina does not like being left in the crate alone during the day.
Tina seems like the kind if dog that will need some time to fully come out of her shell but she has been an sweet dog so far.
Tina did test positive for heartworm and will be receiving treatment provided by MARS to live a long healthy life.
*A dog with Heartworms is not directly contagious to other animals. Heartworms are transmitted by an infected mosquito.
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.
