Description:
Hey folks! My original name in life was Buster, but because I am starting out fresh, I am going by "Milo" now! When I used to be Buster, I lived with an older woman who passed away. Unfortunately I did not receive ANY socialization so that has left me very scared of this big, wide world. Now that I am Milo, I am starting to experience things- like car rides, going for walks, and meeting new people! I am very lucky to have been placed with a wonderful foster home who is very experienced at rehabilitating dogs like me- ones that were not given the social exposure I should have gotten. He owns his business so I am able to come with him, all day everyday! I like this because then I don't have to be alone. His great dane/lab mix comes with too, who is currently my best friend! Unlike a lot of dogs, I do not require a ton of exercise. I am so very mild-mannered that a short walk a couple times a week will be enough for me. My IDEAL home would be someone who is home all day that is looking for a lap dog...maybe a retired couple looking to give a wonderful home to a deserving boy? Afterall, my foster dad says, "he would prefer to sit next to me than play in the yard." Ok, want to know a funny quirk about me? I lay down backwards! Most dogs go into a sit position and then lay down, but not me! I "bow" and then rest my rump! If you are looking for a quiet, petite companion go ahead and fill out an application, so you can meet (and fall in love with) me!!! Love, Milo Please feel free to fill out an Adoption application on our main website, www.midwestanimalrescue.org, by clicking on the Form/Applications link under Website Features. 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.
