Description:

Meet Romano!

Little Romano a.k.a. Boone, short for Boondox because he came from down in the boondocks, is one of the little dogs who came out of the hoarding situation in Texas.

For being with his foster only a little over two weeks he is doing great! He shares a home with five other dogs and a cat. He has bonded rather quickly to his foster mom and dad and follows them around like a little shadow.

He sleeps in a crate at night and does well, we just toss a treat in there and he goes right in. He is also doing great with his house training! He only had a few accidents the first week he arrived. He is currently being treated for some skin allergies to flea bites, but it is clearing up nicely.

He has done fairly well with the other dogs but is terrified of any new strangers, especially children. He needs to be introduced to everything very slowly. He is a great little guy who seems very devoted to us.

It will take someone with a lot of patience to make sure this little guy can learn all of the good things about life. He is quick to wag his tail and greet us in the morning and is really enjoying the air conditioning in the house!

He loves to be out in the fenced yard and is learning how to play with toys, although he is somewhat protective of them right now. He does have a few little quirks due to the environment he was brought up in, but over time Romano aka Boone will make a great little companion with patience and love!

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.
