Description:

Meet this sweet snuggly girl! She’s doing wonderfully with her house training—only one accident so far, and she’ll whimper softly to let you know when it’s time to go outside. She’s also picking up leash skills quickly and walks nicely without tugging.

She’s very dog-friendly and enjoys meeting new canine pals, though she can be a little shy around bigger dogs at first. Cat experience is unknown. Around kids, she shines—she’s absolutely wonderful with the foster family’s 3-year-old and loves being part of the fun.

A true lap dog at heart, she’s incredibly affectionate, food-motivated, and adores her rope-filled stuffy toys. She’s still working on kennel training, especially at night, but with patience and consistency she’ll get there. Outside, she likes to explore, so her family will need to keep an eye on her curious habit of trying to snack on leaves and acorns.

Quiet, loving, and eager to please, she’s ready to find her forever home where she can be someone’s loyal companion and best friend.

* Puppies under 5 months should not be left alone for more than 4 hours at a time to help them with potty training and socialization.

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.
