Description:

This is Nick AKA Buddy! He is certainly a handsome boy!!! Buddy is a great medium size dog with a wonderful personality. He is great with my 17 month old and our 10 year old.

Buddy LOVES to play fetch! He is super good at bringing it back but is still learning "drop it". He knows how to sit and boy does he sit pretty!

He lets my daughter play in his food bowl while he eats and doesn't mind one bit. He has not knocked her over a single time. Even when chasing a thrown ball he goes around her!

He is also house trained and is not destructive! Big pluses! His previous owner said that she never crated him so I am sure he would be fine uncrated. We just have a rule in our house that all fosters must be crated while left alone.

Buddy get's a little too fixated on our cat. He hasn't shown that he wants to eat her but she just seems to consume his attention a little to much for my comfert level.

He was owner surrendered because of a death in the family and other health problems on top of that. He is such a amazing dog I can't imagine ANYONE being able to part with him! So what is the down side of Buddy? The only thing I can see is that he does whine. He walks around and whines but does not bark unless he needs to go out. Other then that to me he is perfect!!! And once he feels safe and secure that will probably stop.

Is Buddy the right boy for you? It would be hard for him not to be!

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.
