Description:

Meet Marissa-

a very mature, loving puppy!

-100% reliably housetrained

-Playful

-Very smart and easy to train

-Good with kids, cats and other dogs

Marissa is highly food-motivated - she especially enjoys little training sessions and is picking up basic obedience as fast as we can train her! With more training and maturity, she has the potential to be a fun agility, obedience or therapy dog.

Marissa is social and gets along great with everyone. She loves to be chased! Her nickname here is "The Noodle" because of how wiggly she gets when she is happy.

As silly as she can be, she also settles down beautifully. Being a puppy, Marissa is not destructive or mouthy. She's learning that the crate is not a scary place, but really doesn't need to be crated.

Marissa really looks up to our German Shepherd. It is so sweet to see her mimic activities and follow our dog's lead. A home with a mature, mannerly dog who is playful and who could continue to be a role model for her would be ideal.

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.
