Meet Neil

UPDATE FROM FOSTER:
Neil, who knows his name as Jack, is very sweet, happy, gentle, and mellow. Jack likes meeting new people and new dogs, and as each day goes by his playful side is coming out more and more. He likes playing fetch, and he likes playing with toys, especially anything that squeaks or is soft — his foster family is helping him learn which toys are ok for him to play with. He enjoys being outside & going for walks — our 8-year-old is able to walk him easily, as he doesn’t pull on the leash. He loves jumping through the snow after the resident dog!

Jack has adjusted to life in his foster family’s home quite quickly, hanging out wherever the people or the resident dog are. He is curious about the resident cat, but hasn’t bothered the cat at all. We have had children here from ages 6 through 9, and he’s happy with all of them, wagging his tail, playing with them, giving some kisses, and relaxing nearby.

We took Jack to get groomed, but it turns out he is afraid of water sprayers and electric trimmers. With time, patience, and love, we think he will eventually get used to these. In the meantime, Jack has been trimmed quite short to get rid of the matted fur. His undercoat is so soft! And his long locks will grow back. We are working on getting him comfortable with being brushed. We are also starting to teach him basic commands like come & sit. Jack is house-trained, is not protective of his food or toys, and has not barked yet. He’s a sweet dog and will be a great companion in his forever home.

Will you be a park of Neil's journey to find comfort and happiness?

*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.
