Description:
If you're looking for a best bud to go on adventures, then Chilly's ready to tag along!
Chilly is a pretty smart pup. He already knows basic commands like sit, down, stay, drop (can't be bringing sticks into the house!), and he has great recall. Chilly is very attentive to his people and quickly picks up on their cues. Keep in mind, though, he's still just a pup, so sometimes he forgets his manners when he gets overly excited to see you.
Chilly's been learning to "dog" from his two foster brothers and has been great with other pups—wrestling and playing and chasing tails and sniffing around our local dog park. And if there's not another dog around, he'll likely bring you a toy to play tug or fetch with. He's shown no aggression (just curiosity) toward cats, but he can be timid around new people, so needs calm introductions and time to get to know them.
Chilly's a big happy and playful boy, so would probably be best with older kids (not infants or toddlers), and also being intelligent and rambunctious, he would greatly benefit from walks and getting out—he's great riding in the car—to go adventuring
If you have previously applied with us please email adoptionatmars@gmail.com to reactivate your application with new interest. 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.
