Description:

Say hello to Copper! This sweet girl is such a little love bug and has all the cutest, floppiest, funniest puppy energy. There's no doubt she'll melt your heart. Copper loves to play with animals of all shapes and sizes. My large shepherd, small chihuahua mix, and cat all equally receive Copper's affection. She's also great with kids! She loves chewing on hard bones and will happily keep herself occupied with that. Copper is still potty training, but it's coming along really well. She's clearly a very smart dog, she eagerly looks up and awaits a treat after going and has gotten good at doing her business right when we got outside. We're also working on some basic commands like sit, come, and stay (she catches on so quick!) Copper has gotten comfortable on a leash and will be a wiz at it in no time. Kennel training is still in progress. She will nap and happily hang out in her kennel, though she will cry and bark when left alone in it, so shared walls might not be the best just yet. Copper is such a fun, affectionate little girl with a big heart who wants to be close to you at all times. She would do really well with another dog to play with or an active owner who will play or run with her often. She really does deserve the best hom.

* Puppies under 5 months should not be left alone for more than 4 hours at a time to help them with potty training and socialization.

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.
