Description:

Gordo is a handsome, calm and friendly little man. He has been a very easy foster dog because he is already potty-trained, good-mannered and a super cuddle-bug. He kennels well but rarely needs it.

His favorite things to do are sprawling out on the couch, going for car rides, long walks or running around especially at the dog park in MG. He loves getting all kinds of attention. He doesn’t play with toys but he will carry them around. He is not food or dog treat motivated but he does that could change in time. Chicken and ham are his top fav treats.

He is comfortable meeting new people and seems to gravitate towards adults - even men. He would thrive in a home with adults and teenagers. Small, busy, children may be overwhelming.

Gordo gets along well with his foster friends (two medium-sized dogs and dog-savvy cat). He does chase the cat on occasion. He would do well as an only dog or partnered with another mellow dog.

Because he rarely barks, he would be a good candidate for a shared-wall environment. He is charming and is quite a gentleman. That’s why I call him “little man”.

If You have previously applied to adopt or foster, please just send an email to the adoption team at adoptionatmars@gmail.com no need to fill out a new application.

*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! 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. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!

Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.

*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.

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.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. 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.
