Description:
Kilo is a 7 year old doxie. He has been paralyzed since he was three years old. He is incontinent so he does need to have his bladder expressed. He was also badly bitten by another dog and had to have emergency surgery on his trachea but has fully recovered from this. Since he was attacked by another dog he is a little timid around new dogs. Kilo is good with other dogs and is fine with cats. He is a dog that loves to sit on your lap and gets happy when you come home. He is ready to find his forever home and I am sure that he will make you as happy as he will you. He has a lot of love to give!!!! Kilo is a sweet boy. He loves to cuddle, and be a part of all the action. He is able to use his back legs to scoot around the house. He does well with my other foster and resident dogs, and ignores cats. Kilo tolerates being crated when I am not home. He loves to burrow under a blanket or sheet when on his dog pillow. If his bladder is expressed every 5 hours or so, he does not need a diaper. At night Kilo is diapered so he can find his favorite spot under the bed covers. He would do well with older children. Foster Home Update 1/2015 DO YOU DISLIKE THE COLD? Maybe Kilo could be your new best friend? He has been with me for over a year. His foster dog buddies come and go and he also longs for a forever home. Kilo loves to play in the grass in the summer, but does not need to go outside in the winter. Expressing his bladder is also quick, painless, and easy to learn. He is a snuggler on these cold nights. See his new photo below with his resident dog buddy.
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.
