Description:

Hooch AKA Benny is a sweet rottie mix who has had a rough start. He wound up in the pound with no where to go so MARS took him in. When he arrived in rescue we noticed there was a problem with his eye. Shortly after the vet saw him and it was decided that he needed it removed. His surgery was done the first week in May and he is now adjusting to his new world. Due to the changes Hooch(Benny) is having some anxiety when he is left alone and would really appreciate a home with someone home most of the time. He really wants to be with his people all the time. With some training and patience we feel he will be able to work through this, he just needs the right home willing to help him cope with his new life.

He has the typical rottie personality, very loyal and protective of his people and home. He needs a confident pack leader who can help him feel safe and not feel like he has to protect everyone all the time. He really would love a running partner too! He really is such a lover and a very smart boy.

Can you be the person he has been waiting for? He would love to meet you!

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.
