Hello potential Forever Families…. I am Skipper!!

I am in search of a family to love me, are you in search of a doggie to love?? We may be a match made in heaven then.

I have been staying with my foster family for a while now, and I have taken a liking to them. I follow them around the house; my breed is protective and devoted to its family, so I just like to make sure everyone is ok. I have my own dog bed I sleep in, can you believe that … my foster mom gave me my own comfortable bed!! I sleep well at night, to be as smart and curious as I am I need a good nights rest. I know that I do not go to the bathroom in the house; I am 3 years old so I know all about going outside to do my business. I like to do my business on walks especially, if I can hit every tree and bush along the way, it’s a victorious day for me. I like to play I am not picky can be humans, large or small, or dogs or cats doesn’t matter to me I will play with you and be super nice to you once we are friends.

Because I didn’t have a family to teach me about the manners and rules of leashes, and how to be protective of my family without being rude I have to learn that now. My foster mom is working with me to teach me that when I see another dog I do not have to get so worked up and bark and pull and show my dominance, you may have to work with me to but I promise I will get it. My instinct is to protect those I love, so sometimes I am rude to stranger that come in my house, again I am working on it and just need some obedience training and I will be perfecto!!

Please be the family I have been searching for!!

*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! 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. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!

Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.

*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.

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.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. 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.
