Description:

Meet Arf!

Great with kids of all ages

Enjoys playing with other dogs

Crate trained

Loves to play fetch

Smart and agile

A good snuggler

Arf gets along with kids - he has done well even with very young children. He enjoys the dogs he meets, but hasn't met many cats yet.

Arf is crate trained and has been left alone at home up to 4 hours at a time. Arf would probably be able to be left alone longer if he were given time to adjust. As a young dog, he is still perfecting his potty training and doing very well using a schedule during the day and with a potty pad for the nighttime.. just in case.

Arf sits, walks on leash, LOVES car rides and actually seems to enjoy being groomed. When it's time for play, Arf is ready for fun and loves to play fetch - he is smart and might even enjoy some agility games. When it's time to relax, he's ready to take his place sitting in your lap or snuggling up next to you.

Arf is a sweet little guy who would love to brighten your days!

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.
