Description:
Meet Butch!

Butch and siblings were surrendered by their owner. He loves to be loved. He will just get up on your lap and snuggle. He is Shy and timid - loves to play ball - he just forgets to bring it back right now. He is still learning what to do. He loves to lay by you and sleep. He is potty trained and kenneled trained. A really good puppy born in July 2008.

UPDATE FROM BUTCH'S EMERGENCY FOSTER: First, we're calling him Buddy, instead of Butch. Buddy is fully potty trained and kennels great for a treat. He gets super excited when you come home and does tend to jump up on you but with redirection and a firm down he listens very well. He knows sit (for a treat) and is learning down. He walks ok on the leash he does pull a bit and is very strong. He walks perfect when using a gentle leader. He is a big couch potato and if he sees you sitting there he will be right in your lap before you even notice. He is a really sweet dog and gets along with everyone. Oh and he absolutely loves rawhides.

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.
