Description:
Gouda is a puppy mill survivor and his new home needs to have a securely fenced yard, another confident dog in the home and familiarity with “puppy mill” behaviors. Meet Gouda, This young fella spent the first part of his life in a cage at a puppy mill. He has made leaps and bounds in his progress of learning to be a dog! He still has a ways to go and we are looking for an experienced dog home to help him on the rest of his journey. He has a prance and a bounce that is absolutely adorable. He enjoys the company of his foster brother so much and his learned so many things from following his lead. He definitely is enjoying his new toys and will often stash them in his bed for later play. He's learned the command "go outside" and he follows the other dogs right out. He is doing well with potty training as long as he gets outside every 2-3 hours. He is still shy so he needs a very patient and understanding home to help him continue to thrive and overcome his fear of new people and situations. Due to his personality, he would not do well in a home with small children - only older children (and adults) who are dog savvy. He also needs a home with another dog to help boost his confidence and teach him how to "dog". He is a funny, sweet little guy and will be worth every single minute of your time!!! Please give him the chance to learn the joys of being loved and spoiled!!!
*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! 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. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification! Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.
*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. 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. Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks. Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. 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.
