Description:
Rudolph's Foster is allergic to him, so he needs a new foster home!
Rudolph's Foster dad wants you to know: Rudolph is a sweetheart. He is very good natured and loves people and attention. He's like my shadow. He has beautiful brown eyes, soft black fur with white patches on his chest and feet, and a beautiful long tail. He's adjusted really quickly to his new home. He didn't show any signs of stress that I noticed. He has a good disposition and will probably adapt well to whatever situation he finds himself in. He loves going for walks. He's already figured out that when we leave the house through the front door, going to the right is a walk and left is bathroom. He always wants to go right. We've had a few walks already, including a long hike at Afton State Park.He really seemed to enjoy the walks and the cold weather hasn't bothered him. He knows commands like "sit", "stay", and "come" but he's more likely to follow commands when a treat is involved. I worked with him on sitting politely before he would get his food. I also gave him a bath, he didn't enjoy the bath but he was good about it and didn't struggle to get away. He and I had fun playing in the snow today. I'm not sure he understands the game of fetch though. I'd toss a snowball for him and if he noticed it, which was about half the time, he would run to the snowball,put his mouth on it, and then seemed to think, "Now what?" Rudolph is well behaved on car rides, preferring to nap after watching the road for the first few minutes. He doesn't like his crate but he settles down when he's been in there for a few minutes. I've been giving him a treat when he goes in the crate so he associates that with good things. Rudolph has only been at his foster home a short while and already he has proven what a good boy he is.

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.
