Description:
Meet Shad Shadow is a pomeranian mixed with...Ewok? He is very cute and looks like a little stuffed animal as he trots around! Shadow gets very excited when it's time to eat or go outside and he'll dance and twirl in circles in front of you -it's adorable!
Shadow was seized from a hoarding situation where there were 36 dogs and he is ready to find a home where he can get more attention and love.
Shadow is a very quiet boy -I've yet to hear him bark. He LOVES his crate, but not as much as getting a good back scratch or pet behind the ears.
Shadow has the happiest personality! He looks like he is constantly smiling and he just loves to be near people. He walks great on a leash and would make a great walking buddy.
UPDATE: Shad has had quite the adventure since arriving in rescue! He had seemed tender in his abdomen area and would nip if picked up and FINALLY it was determined that he had a gall bladder mucocele and had surgery to remove it at the U of M -turns out they also removed his spleen and biopsied his liver too! This little boy is quite the trooper! He is now feeling GREAT and all tests came back negative and he is like a new dog! Shad has had some hair loss since day one and we have done a cushings test which came back negative. The cause of the hair loss has not been determined and could be lack of good nutrition in the past (he came from a hoarder home) and age, but he does have some patches of bald at this time and since his pictures were taken.
Shad is the forever puppy -everyone who sees him LOVES him and thinks he is just a little puppy and want to know what kind of dog he is -he was a favorite at the U. :-) He is a loving little boy and currently lives with 2 TINY poms so small dogs are just fine with him although he would much rather get attention from his people than play with other dogs. Shad is also great with cats.

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.
