Description:
Meet Faren! If you’re looking for a dog who is always ready to sit on your lap and give you kisses, Faren may be the dog for you.
She gets along with everyone in our household but has her favorites. Faren immediately bonded to my wife and happily follows her around all day, and is on the look-out for her when she is not home. Faren’s favorite actives are sitting on your lap, laying beside you in bed, being petted, sharing kisses, and tug-of-war.
Faren gets along well with dogs and is working on her behavior around cats (and chickens) as she sometimes gives into her urges and wants to chase them. She seems to be house trained, but does not ask to go outside and because of this has had a few accidents in our home. We expect this will improve as we get to know her better.
Overall, she is a quiet but can start barking while playing with our resident dog and will sometimes join in if he starts barking. Faren is also a very sensitive dog. If she gets confused in a new situation or does something wrong, she needs reassurance that all is forgiven, which only takes a few words of encouragement. It seems as if she knows the basic commands and is willing to go into her crate (and sometimes hides out inside it) but would much rather be in your lap.
*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.
