Description:

Meet Peanut

Peanut was brought to the shelter after his owner passed away unexpectedly. He was definitely loved and well-cared for.

When he arrived he walked like a little cowboy because of his knees. He has had his surgery and PT and aqua therapy. After all that, the pain was gone from his knees and a sweet little dog emerged. This little guy is ready for his forever home.

Peanut is housebroken. He can spend time in a crate although he is safe around the house and really would prefer a soft dog bed. He gets along with dogs and ignores cats. He does ok with kids, but is NOT a dog that would be suitable as a playmate for younger kids. Peanut might do best in a home where the people have had some experience with dogs.
As a senior, he needs someone who will take the time to get to know him.

Although he likes to go outside, he is a pretty low energy dog. A true housedog! He enjoys nap time and would be just fine with an owner who worked during the day. He is not a barker. He will give a shout if someone comes to the door, but he is easily quieted.

Peanut's foster people love him very much. They say "He may be timid, or a little shy at first, but he will tug your heart strings in no time."

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.
