Description:

Quint is a 5 year old black and tan min pin who has a natural tail and natural ears. He weighs about 17 lbs and is a total sweetheart. He gets along with people and enjoys other dogs. He is coming from a high kill shelter and needs a forever home....can you help him??

He doesn't really know how to play with toys yet, but loves to be chased around by people. Also he loves trying to play with his foster brother but is good about leaving him alone when he doesn't want to play. He needs some practice with walking on a leash and is working on that with a harness so he doesn't pull his foster mom around. Doesn't seem he's had much leash experience before. He loves to jump up and put his arms around you to give you a hug and loves his belly scratched. He has been friendly to every stranger he's met, even will jump in their lap if they let him. He seems to be potty trained...we haven't had any accidents in the house yet. He also seems to be crate trained but he certainly doesn't like to be in it as it took me 5 minutes to coerce him to go in it this morning. (which isn't easy because he's really strong for his breed) He keeps his crate dry when I'm at work. He's very calm most of the time and just wants a comfy place to nap.

*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.
