Description:
Meet Joey!

Joey was surrendered by his owner to our rescue and he is now looking for a new FOREVER home.

Joey is a very sweet and lovable dog. He is just looking for someone to share all of his love with. He was sold as a puppy and then returned to his original owner who does not want anything to do with him. This is where we stepped in. This boy is too sweet to have to be treated like this.

A NOTE FROM HIS FOSTER HOME:

He is coming out of his shell, eating more and filling out, which is a blessing. We will go to the vet tomorrow for blood draw and will likely be weighed. It is good to see progress. Joey is very well house-trained and loves going on leash walks just around the yard. Although he is respectful of our larger standard Poodle, he seems more focused on just being with his humans. He went to the beauty shop with me Saturday (by special permission!) met many new ladies, and enjoyed just snoozing on my lap. Car rides with him are not a problem, and he seems to like going on short errands versus staying home. He is just starting to realize that new people and experiences can be fun and are not to be feared. He alerts me if anyone is at the door. He is sleeping with us and our bigger dog, up on the bed, and again he is more than polite, rarely moving or hogging the bed. He follows me into the bathroom for what we call the "Mary Kay Hour" and sits patiently while I shower and do my hair and get ready. He is great company and whoever gave this baby up doesn't know what they are missing.

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.
