Description:

Meet Rae!

Rae is a sweet girl. She has significant visual impairments (Vet said she is probably completely blind in the right eye and can see just shadows out of her left eye). Rae can be unsure in new situations and needs a little more time to adjust and get familiar with her environment.

Rae is doing really well. She’s acclimated well, has not had a single accident in the house, and seems to love being part of a “pack.” When there are other dogs in the room, she seems a little more gutsy and curious than when she’s alone. She seems to have taken to our bloodhound, Stella, and we sometimes find Rae following her a bit.

She absolutely loves the snow outside. It’s when she perks up the most and she will actually chase me around the yard. We call her “tiny prancer” because she has a dainty little prance!

She definitely has her nervous moments, but as she builds confidence, those moments lessen. I imagine they’ll always exist to some extent, but she’s come a long way in a short period. She’s at her most nervous when there are sudden light changes and lots of shadow movement. Because she can’t see well and light changes/big movements freak her out, I’d likely advise against her being in a house with young children (or at least making sure it is children that are gentle and understanding of leaving her be if needed).

She will make an absolutely lovely companion dog for someone who likes to go on walks or be outside.

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.

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.
