Meet Toby

Toby is looking for a good home.   It's obvious his owners took good care of him and trained him well.   He is housebroken, knows some commands, will kennel when needed.   Toby knows how to live in a home and how things work. He is also a very smart dog - he picked up all the routines in his new foster home within a day or so.

Toby seems to be a happy-go-lucky guy.   He loves to be out of doors and enjoys running around in a fenced yard.   His all time favorite thing to do is play fetch with a tennis ball. He can't get enough of it!   He can dig the ball out of any snowbank and brings it back every time.   He does pretty well on a leash too!

Toby gets along with the foster's resident dogs. They don't play a lot, but the resident dogs aren't big on playing. Toby really loves his people.   He follows his foster mom around, eager to please.

We think Toby might enjoy a home with another dog to keep him company - especially if that dog likes to play or run around the yard.   He has never been left alone for long work days and might not adapt well to it.   Toby needs some people who really want to hang around with him and let him be part of their daily lives!

This sweet boy is ready for his forever home.

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.
