Description:
Coal was sitting in the pound waiting for someone to rescue him. He needed a foster home committed to taking care of him while we look for his new FOREVER home. We got him out of jail and now he is waiting for you to take him home!

Coal is a very friendly boy. He is very food motivated, and takes treats gently. He knows how to sit and shake. He is very interested in toys, and will chase after them, but then it doesn't seem like he knows what to do when he gets there! He is a fairly docile, gentle boy.

Coal is part of that "Black Dog Syndrome" issue all the black dogs like him seem to suffer from! They get into a rescue in the nick of time to save their lives, but then no one seems to notice them waiting patiently for that one special forever home. Personally I think black dogs are the most beautiful of all dogs. I have had them all my life! From Labs and Black and Tan Coon Hounds, to Rotties and now a Black Lab/American Bull Dog mix named Beaner. And here they sit! Waiting for the same love and attention all the other dogs get. How can you look at this boy and not think he is beautiful, handsome, and needing a home! Can you see it in your heart to accept him into your home and love him forever? If you have never heard of the "Black Dog Syndrome" do a search on the net for it and see what its all about! Its truly a sad situation for all the "Coals" of the world! Please ask about this great boy and make him your next family member!

Why not take this opportunity to make a huge difference in the life of a sweet boy who needs some help?

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.
