Description:
An update from Chevy's new forever home: He’s doing great! His new name is Griswold, and he’s a very smart boy! He knows tons of tricks, including sitting at the curb when we go for our daily walks and playing dead. He doesn’t gripe about his crate at all, and is very playful. His favorite thing to do is to chase a laser light all around the room and yard. His challenges are digging and puppy nipping, but he’s getting a little better about the nipping. Fortunately, he doesn’t nip at our daughter. He walks really well with a Gentle Leader and loves to run in the yard. Meet Chevy! Chevy was picked up as a stray and taken to a rural rescue. The rescue is bursting at the seams, and asked MARS to help. Of course we couldn't turn down that cute little smiley face! It doesn't appear that Chevy has spent much time in the house. He is a fairly high energy boy, but was easily crate trained. This boy just needs some training and direction in order to be a great family pet. Note from foster family: Chevy has been doing great. He's not in love with the crate but he's doind so well with that & housebreaking. He's all puppy! Just an adorable fun loving ball of play and energy. He's loved every animals he meets and always wants to play and make you smile. He's a little handful but the love you get back is worth the work. Please feel free to fill out an Adoption application on our main website, www.midwestanimalrescue.org, by clicking on the Form/Applications link under Website Features. Thank 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. 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.
