Description:

Scout is a sweet, smart pup who loves to lick faces and go for walks. She enjoys puzzle treats, walks, being by her human, sniffing around the yard, lounging in the sun and most importantly, treats. She is potty trained, knows basic commands (come, sit, stay, shake, lay, off, speak, and up), walks well on a leash, and is very food motivated. She would do well in a home with no other dogs, no young children, and where she can go on daily walks. Scout does not like a kennel, but can be left out in the house with no issue. However, she is a counter-surfer and loves human food. She does well with cats in the house, although she does like to lick them.

She originally came to MARS from Texas as a puppy after being found in a barn with her 2 sisters. She was then adopted by a couple and was with them for almost 8 years. But they had a son who started walking and bothering Scout, and she responded by growling and lunging at him. She has never bit him but it was really stressful for Scout and the parents, so she needs to be in a home with no young children. She is great with adults and older kids who can respect her space.

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.
