Meet Charming Charlie Cheddar!
This sweet 2-year old papillon is an absolute joy to be around! He is a very spry, happy-go-lucky little guy with a love for the outdoors! Although he is still a work in progress he has really come a long way!

Cheddar is really easy to care for - he loves toys and is very content just playing by himself. He is most comfortable in the presence of his foster humans where he feels safe and will lay on his dog bed, chew bones or nap without any bother.

He needs the companionship of another dog and would like a play friend but is fine just having a buddy to hang out with and follow around! He is doing excellent on potty training (especially on a schedule) and has had very few accidents. Cheddar does not care for his kennel and will bark in it but does calm down with a PB kong.

He loves being pet, but still fearful of initial picking-up/touching until he knows it's safe. He is a alert barker and would not do well in a home with a common wall. Due to his past and sometimes nervous behavior he is also not a good fit in a home with small children or lots of noise/commotion.

Cheddar is just a really good little guy who needs someone patient to love him and continue to work with him to develop his confidence as a dog!

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.
