Description:

Vizzini has settled in, is learning his manners and his personality is coming out!

House training is going well - he only has accidents if we don't notice his pacing or that he's giving us a stare down. He rarely barks, although he whines a lot if he is separated from everyone. He definitely needs company. He tries to initiate play with our dogs, one does not "play" and the other is old and blind and just feels attacked by Vizzini's play approaches. He loves to cuddle and sleep in your personal space. He also loves routines and does not like when they get changed.

Vizzini wants to meet ALL THE PEOPLE and ALL THE ANIMALS. He is great on a walk, in fact my 5 year old walks him without a problem. He does get distracted by anyone he sees or any bird or squirrel in sight, but moves on without too much fight. He is also working on "sit" and "down" and has learned "no" - although his interpretation seems to be "drop whatever I have and run far far away!"

Vizzini is a very rambunctious, loving puppy who is just waiting for his family to take him home and teach him their routines!

*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! 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. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!

Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.

*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.

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.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. 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.
