Description:

Hi, my name is Basil and I am a 3 year old Pointer mix that was brought to the shelter as a stray.

When I came in I had a bad case of mange, but I have been treated for this and although all of my hair has not come back in, I'm feeling so much better!

Basil has been such a delight to foster!

He is fully house trained and can be left home alone while I’m at work or running errands. He’s very calm and easy going, he loves curling up in his dog bed and hanging out.

Basil is very affectionate with every person he meets, and he gets along great with other dogs.

Basil does not do very well with cats, he will chase them if they run and he’s still not quite sure about them. Other than that he is a perfect dog and will be a great addition to any home!

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.
