Description:
Meet Bugsy! Bugsy had to come back to MARS after being adopted for over 2 years due to changes in his humans life. They loved him dearly but did what they think is best for him. HE WILL NEED A FENCED IN AREA! He will not walk on a leash or use a harness and will "gator roll" every time you put it on him so a fenced in area is a must. He is terrified of strangers and will need time to adjust to any new people around your home. He has had a lot of change in his life and he will need a patient adopter that will give him time to adjust. When he is in a kennel or cornered he will snap at you. He is easily scared and you need to go very slow with him. He does not like to sleep under the covers but if you have a dog bed at your feet he loves it there. He does get grumpy if another dog tries to sleep with him :) I am also looking for a home that has only 1 other dog in it. The dog needs to be low key and not in your face type dog. Bugsy will play with one of the dogs in my house but other than that seems to want to be a loner right now. He has been trained to pee pads but we will also be working on his potty training skills outside. He will seek out a pee pad if one is available. Right now he has a "summer cut" and his hair is pretty short. Normally he has a long beautiful double coat that will need regular grooming. He use to love to be brushed so I do not think that will be an issue. Bugsy looks forward to finding a forever home. * Good with dogs, cats, and birds. * Great in a crate. * FENCED YARD ONLY.

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.
