Description:

Always wanted a goofy guy in your life???? Then Tug is the man for YOU!!!!!

This big lug of a lover is what rescue is all about. His original owners kept Tug and a number of other dogs locked in a basement for months, until one day they broke a basement window open and got out onto the driveway. There they sat; starving, covered in feces and urine, waiting for someone to help them. Luckily, a neighbor spotted them and called police, who seized all the dogs from this neglectful owner. Tug weighed 66 pounds when he was saved. When he is fully back to health he will be about 90 pounds!!!

This boy is just soaking up the good life -- rolling in the grass, playing with his foster siblings (canine), and loving on his foster family (human). He loves to crawl into your lap to get pets, or roll onto his belly for scratches. He gets along with other dogs from tall to small, and tends to be submissive to any dog that wants to dominate. Good with people of all size, Tug will be great with children, keeping in mind his large stature!!! (90 pounds is a big boy)!

If you are interested in giving Tug the life he deserves from here on out, fill out an application, and tell us about yourselves. We'll see if you and Tug are a match made in heaven!!!

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.
