Description:

Kelby, aka Walter, is a sweetheart.

He has gotten very comfortable in his foster home. He loves his foster sister, a 4 year old lab. They play and wrestle a little, hunt for things in the yard. They go on walks together and like to lay around together.

He's smart and has learned to sit before entering the house, eating or getting attention. He loves rawhides, but doesn't chew on anything else...shoes are safe! He's crate trained but sometimes it takes a lot of coaxing to get him in it. Once he's in, he's fine.

He loves taking walks, and he loves to run. He wants to meet every dog he sees. He likes to snuggle and be petted. He'll sleep anywhere as long as he's close to people he loves.

He will be a lovely addition to any family. Won't you consider giving him a forever home...you'll be forever blessed.

Thank you very much.

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.
