Description:
Nuggett, you handsome boy! Nuggett's family left him at the shelter. How they could do that to this lovable dog we will never know. He has alot of love to give. Nuggett loves getting attention, and is very affectionate - cuddling is his favorite. Nuggett has playful energy and can be a big goof-ball. He loves his toys, and can entertain himself. He is totally housebroken and can be trusted loose in the house during the work day. He doesn't like the crate, but will go in if needed. He has no food agression and takes treats gently. He is a sweet soul and just needs someone to teach him the basics. He is learning obedience commands, and is treat motivated, so he is learning fast. He is learning to walk on a leash, and will benefit from an Easy Walk Harness, as he does tend to pull a little with just his collar. He has a beautiful, luxurious coat that has stunning colors. He is really quite a sweetie, and a very adoptable pooch. Please click on the ADOPTION APPLICATION found below. Thank you very much. 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.
