Description:

Meet Vinnie!

Hi! My name is Vinnie and I’m about 2-½ years old. My people are not sure how I am mixed but they think I’m part Chihuahua, possibly part Rat Terrier or JackRussell, and definitely part Awesome. I’m about 11 pounds and my main goal in life is to snuggle and love you as much as possible.

I’ve moved around a lot I’m kind of shy and skittish at first but I promise I’ll warm up to you once I take a look around the place. I do like other dogs and can be a little bossy at first, it’s only because I’m nervous. Once I figure out the family dynamic, though, I will respect, love and play with the other dogs in the house, boys and girls!!

I have my own kennel and blanket, and I sleep in it really well at night and you go to work. While I’m kenneled I hold my potties really well. Once out of my kennel I could use some practice so please give me a chance to get on your schedule.

I can’t wait to meet you!

Update from foster family:
The foster family said Vinnie adores their son who is 13; he gets
along well with their cats, and he sleeps nicely in his kennel at
night. He follows Mom around the house and hops on her lap to snuggle
anytime he can. He loves going for walks. He would love to find a
forever family.

*Please check your inbox for a response from us. (...and spam/junk box if you have not received one)

*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! 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. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!

Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.

*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.

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.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. 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.
