Bullet is a one-year-old, affectionate, German Shepard, who is good with other dogs, kids, and even strangers. This social butterfly loves to play and spend time with his people. Wanna play tug-of-war or fetch? Need a jogging partner? Bullet would love to join you! And please don't forget the pets and scratches. Those are favorites, too.

Unfortunately, Bullet's original owner worked very long hours and didn't have the time or energy that a young GSD needs. He often was left alone for 12 hours at a time and didn't get much exercise. He started chewing things and digging in an effort to burn off that puppy energy. He did well in his crate, but his owner rarely used it.

Can you help provide the happy ending to Bullet's story? With love, training, and regular exercise, he'll develop into a happy and well-mannered companion. He just needs a devoted family to call his own.

Update from Bullett's adoptive home, October 20th, 2011:

I just wanted to let you know how happy we are to have found Bullet (We changed the spelling to Bullitt). He is adjusting very well and is learning new things every day!

He's so eager to learn, and even tho it takes some patience, he picks up new things very quickly.

He loves to ride in the car and is a very courteous passenger. I took him to our local farm/pet store and his behavior was stellar.

Our 16+ year old dog enjoys having him around and even plays with him on occasion, plus she is eating more regularly now that he is here. I think she was lonesome for a pal. We do have to reign him in sometimes as he gets a little overly playful with her, but he is getting to be really good about leaving her be when she is not in the mood.

Thank you SO MUCH! We absolutely adore Bullitt, he has become a much-loved member of our family! I have attached a couple of photos of him in his new home.

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.
