Description:

Blackie is a 1 1/2 year old beagle mix who is black and tan. Blackie weighs about 21 lbs. He is good wih people and likes other dogs. He is coming from a high kill shelter and his time was running out. He had been there since October 2013 and kept getting over looked. He is shy when you first meet him but he just wants to be your best friend.

Blackie Update: he is doing great! He's goofy, loves the dog park, walks, belly rubs and playing with toys. He's still a bit of a puppy and needs a good chew toy to distract him from chewing on other things. He's potty trained and we are working with him on basic commands such as sit and stay. He does well on a leash and is getting better on the leash everyday.

I would adopt him if it weren't for having two boy dogs. Two boy dogs makes going on walks an epic pee/ marking battle between my do Boston and Blackie. Whoever gets this little guy is very lucky!

UDATE 2- Blackie is a furry black ball of energy who loves mornings and licking faces! Who knew someone with such a small body had such a big heart. He might be shy when you first meet him, but he quickly warms up with treats and belly rubs. Bobby is an active dog who loves companionship with humans and other dogs especially. His quick feet and big smile helps him make fast friends and he does wonders with small kids. Blackie especially loves to play, going on car rides with the window down, walks in the dog park and enjoys running in the dog park.
He doesn't enjoy being in a kennel, but does fine during the day in a small gated area with a chew toy and a comfy place to sleep while his foster parents are at work. He knows how to sit and we are working on fine tuning his leash manners.

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.
