Description:
*Requires another dog in the home* Morris AKA Ranger is the calmest dog! He is a great coworker and a great walking buddy and will be a great addition to your family. Whether working from home or in the office, he will curl up and sleep at your feet all day without a peep. Ranger is calm, patient, and such a good boy. He loves walks and doesn’t pull on the leash. He is potty trained and will go on leash or in a yard. He notices external sounds, but doesn’t bark at them. He communicates with a low whine when he wants to go outside and sometimes a louder whine when he gets excited and sees another dog on a walk. Ranger came to MARS from Houston in 2020, was adopted by a family who recently got a divorce and didn't have time for him or his housemate. The two were later separated because she needed a yard and Ranger misses the companionship of another dog. Ranger is looking for a stable home with another dog to bond with. Cats in the home are fine with him. Ranger is shy and can take some time to warm up, with patience and love, he will learn to trust and feel comfortable. He enjoys chews, walks, and the companionship of another dog. He can live in any kind of home, house, apartment, or townhouse. Ranger deserves the best and you’ll have the best dog if you welcome him into your 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. 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.
