Description:

Meet Shelby!

Shelby is a sweet 9 year old sheltie/ golden retriever (best guess) mix. She does not act or look her age. She has a lovely disposition and loves to be with her people. She is friendly, and eager to meet all the people we meet on our neighborhood walks. She is great with other dogs and with the three cats in her foster home. She does bark at those coming to the door or invading the yard, but will stop when told to.

Shelby is perfectly house trained and has not needed a kennel in her foster home. She is great to walk with and has plenty of pep in her walk. She is intent on ridding the world of squirrels, rabbits and deer, but has not caught one as yet. The deer are no longer jumping our fence. She enjoys walking the fenced yard, but would be fine without a fence too. Shelby may have learned the basic commands in her past, but she does need to brush up on these. She responds well to treats.

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.

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.
