Meet Abner
*playful*
*curious and inquisitive*
*good with cats and other dogs*
Abner had an unfortunate start in life as a breeder dog. He was surrendered to rescue where he now has a chance to live in a home and learn how to be a loving companion. Abner notices everything. He is always watching and has learned very quickly. His tail wags when people try to interact and he always needs to investigate if someone is near. He is learning that treats are awesome and that being held and scratched under the chin or behind the ears feels really good (that is once you catch him! He is still unsure about being picked up...although I'm suspecting he now enjoys the "catch me if you can" game!) The breeder shaved him so he doesn't have his beautiful coat, but it's already starting to grow back and is going to be a beautiful gold color. Abner is currently being fostered in a home with a fenced yard and he is doing really well with housetraining. He still needs more practice with walking on a leash. He would do best in a home with another dog that can continue to show him the ropes. Abner has started to play with the other dogs and toys. Give him a little more time and his playful nature and great personality will fully blossom!

(and spam box if you have not received one) 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.
