Description:

Hi, I'm Jaxon!

I am crate trained , house trained , LOVE other dogs and teenagers!

My foster home rocks!! There is a big fenced yard to run in, sticks to drag around and dogs to play with! I know how to fetch so I get to do that outside too! I have been real good about going to the bathroom outside like I'm supposed to!

I am in a kennel during the work day and get let outside at lunchtime. They let me up on the furniture and in their beds - so when I need a nap or its time for bed I can snuggle with someone. I love to give kisses and might wake you up with one! My foster family doesn't seem to mind too much when I forget how big I am and that I'm still really just a big baby - I try hard not to run in to them or step on their feet - also I really like to go first so we're working on my manners.

I know how to "sit" but it's REALLY hard to "sit" for very long when there's so much to do! We are working really hard on not jumping up when I'm excited - I'm glad they're patient but you might need to watch me around little kids because I could accidentally knock them down. I know what "no" means even if I pretend like I don't hear you I don't really like to be yelled at - it scares me a little and hurts my feelings. I am a little bit timid and nervous around adult men but I will be working to get over my fears.

My foster mom says I'm hilarious and a goofball and I really like to follow around her 16 year old son.

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.
