Description:

Goose is a sweet dog with a lot of energy. He housetrained very quickly at his foster home and has not had issues as long as he gets let out regularly to do his business. He goes into his kennel nicely at night to sleep and when we have to leave the house for short periods of time. We have also been recently leaving him out of his kennel at night, just putting him in our bedroom with us and he sleeps thru the night on a dog bed on the floor. He is learning to walk on a gentle leader and is doing a great job.

When he is excited, he will jump up and may bowl you over with his enthusiasm! He is learning not to jump up and nip at your fingers and ankles, but will need more training on this. He is smart and is definitely learning, but patience and consistency will be key. For this reason, we think he would do best in a home without small children as he is learning boundaries with chewing/nipping and jumping.

He gets along well with other dogs and loves to play. He enjoys wrestling, playing with toys (especially removing the stuffing), and chasing his foster brother (and my ankles) around the fenced yard.

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.
