Description:
Josie is an all around great pup! She is super loving, loyal, tolerant, and trains very quickly. She's potty-trained, and already knows several commands (Come, Sit, Down, Shake). She always stays near, never attempting to run off and comes easily when called. 

Josie is a bit timid around strangers, but improving with lots of socialization, both in public and at home. She warms up to kids the  easiest and comfortable with most other dogs right away. She's never aggressive; she just may hide behind someone who she is familiar with when a stranger comes near.  She would do well with another dog in the home. 
 

Josie is fabulous with kids and is a fantastic family dog. When out in public, people often comment about how cute and sweet she is and what a great demeanor she has. She stays close by, very loyal, and gentle. She thinks she's a bit of a lap dog, draping her front legs over your lap for a morning hello. While of course she needs exercise and room to run, she is surprisingly mellow and quiet for a Labrador puppy.

Thank You!

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.
