Description:

Meet Perchik! 60 lbs of fluff and love and growing!

Perchik's a 6-month-old puppy who appears to be Great Pyrenees, except his fur is black! He's jumpy and fun in the morning and around dinner time, but a furry footwarmer during the middle of the day. His favorite place to be is within a few feet of one of his people.

Perchik is learning quickly and already is good at "sit." His fosters report that he likes to have his ears scritched and he is happy to do training if there are treats and praise involved. Next step - walking nicely on a leash!

Despite his size, Perchik is still a bit nervous about the world. He jumps at loud noises and gets very nervous and barks a lot if his foster family isn't nearby. And he still has that puppy tendency to chew and dig. But he makes it through the night in his kennel with no accidents, and he's great on car rides. He's also hilarious when he discovers new things, like puddles and his new favorite: ice cubes!

Since Perchik's going to be a giant, his ideal home would be one with people who understand his unique health needs and how much his food, etc., will cost. He doesn't necessarily need a ton of space, just regular gentle exercise. He'd probably do best in a house where he's the only dog. But what he needs more than anything is a family with a little bit of patience and a lot of 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.
