Meet Arnie!

Arnie was a puppy mill breeder dog that found himself on an auction block. His life was at the fate of the bidders. He was "purchased" by a rescue volunteer for $1.00 and now has a second chance to live and to finally become someone's beloved pet.

Arnie is a very sweet little Peke! He has come a long way since arriving in his foster home. He LOVES playing with other dogs, with cats, with toys.... with anything and anyone that will play with him!

Arnie is VERY affectionate, but will still run if you approach him. If you wait for him to approach you, he LOVES to have his ears scratched and to be pet all over! He is a very curious little guy and would be OK in a home with older kids as long as they are patient with him.

He sleeps in his foster mom's bed along with the other dogs and is definitely a "snorer extraordinaire"! For such a little guy, he has a big snore! The only thing cuter than his snore.... is his little bark! He doesn't bark often, but when he does this cute little "a-roo-roo-roo" comes out of him. It is precious!

Arnie is now walking on a leash and doing extremely well. His housetraining is coming along great and he LOVES to be outdoors.

A home with a fenced yard and another dog is required for Arnie at this time.

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.
