Description:

Patchouli is a 1 1/2 year old pit bull mix. She was taken away from an owner who had too many dogs. When she got to the shelter they immediately knew something was wrong because she couldn't walk. The workers were told that she had been unable to walk ever since they got her. She had x-ays done and it appears all her joints on her back legs are fused. She uses her back legs to pivot some when she is walking. This is not a birth defect but she doesn't have a spinal injury. We are not sure exactly the cause. Patchouli is good with other dogs and good with cats. She loves every person she meets. Although she needs a little assistance with her mobility she has so much love to give. She is a good cuddler and she loves to play with other dogs. Patchouli would love a new family to call her own.

*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.
