Meet Barton!

Barton (Buddy) belonged to a lady who passed away recently. Her husband had minimal information on the cats/dog in the home. The house had been foreclosed and he has to move to an apartment and can't take animals with him. The animals were going to be left to fend for themselves. Luckily a shelter was contacted so the animals in the home are now safe.

All the sadness of his past hasn't affected Barton's sweet disposition and friendliness. He settled right in at his foster home, claimed his foster mom's lap and even played with dog toys. Barton actually knows how to fetch! Check out his new videos!

Barton is a mix of Miniature Poodle and maybe a Terrier, very cute and does not shed. He was quite surprised at how cold the ground is here, and got convinced to wear fleece booties which made his walks much easier. He walks well on a leash and cheerfully explores the new surroundings.

Barton enjoys human company and is good with respectful, dog-savvy children. He is very affectionate. He got to go to get his nails trimmed and thoroughly enjoyed the attention of people and dogs at Petco (and even got to buddy up to three rescue greyhounds there). He happily goes between a bit of play and a bit of snoozing in his doggie bed, and the rest of the time he follows his foster mom around.

Barton is housetrained and has earned himself human bed priviledges. He is crated during the day when his foster family is gone, but is not a fan of being crated and can bark in there. The fosters haven't yet tried leaving him loose in the house and seeing if this makes a difference. At this point, a home without shared walls is recommended for Barton.

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.
