Description:
BIG SOFTY! LOOKING FOR HIS FOREVER HOME!!

Hi, my name is Rusty!

I was stuck at the pound for a really long time. Now, a nice person saved me, and I'm going to live at their house for a little while... I'm really excited!

I just want to be loved! I'm the biggest marshmallow you've ever met. And I really love belly rubs! I love them so much that I had to get at least one belly rub from each person before I would pose nicely for the pictures. I know, the blanket was kind of girly, but it was soooo soft! I also like to cuddle. I want to get as close to you as I can. I'm pretty sure I'm a lap dog!

I'm a very happy and submissive boy. My tail is always wagging. Even living in the pound can't get me down, as long as I get bellyrubs!! I'm about a year and a half old, and weigh around 55 pounds. But, yes, I'm sure I'm a lap dog.

I'd like to learn how to play with toys. I've heard there are stores where dogs can go shopping. I think I'd like to go there and pick out some toys!

I have a really pretty coat that has a slight bit of brindling on it. I'm rust colored with a little bit lighter brindle marks. I'm very cute and very sweet and am looking for my forever home.

I hope I can meet you soon! We can test out your belly-rubbing skills! And maybe we can go toy shopping!

Please feel free to fill out an Adoption Application on our main website, www.midwestanimalrescue.org, by clicking on the Form/Applications link under Website Features.

Thank you!!

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.
