Description:

Meet Whitaker!

Whitaker has come a long way since he first arrived in rescue! He was very shy and timid initially and now will follow his foster parents everywhere. He enjoys pets and will even roll over for belly rubs. He still needs time to adjust to new people and situations but once comfortable will make a great companion.

Whitaker is housetrained and does have free reign of the house while people are home...and seems fine left unkenneled when not supervised unless there are items left around that smell like food! He can't resist that temptation! He doesn't readily go into a kennel, but once inside he does not seem to have any issues with being in there.

Whitaker is a quiet little guy. He will bark at times in the house but it is very amusing in the way he does it. He will put his head down on the floor and turn his head so the side of his face in on the floor and then barks with his rear end in the air.

He enjoys being out in the back yard running from one end to the other and loves going for walks.

Whitaker would do best in a quieter home without young children. He would love the companionship of another dog but would be fine as an only dog if given time to settle in and get comfortable with his people.

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.

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.
