Story
Meet Burger! Burger is an adorable 4-year-old male, who is eagerly searching for his home. This lovable guy is bursting with playfulness, making every day an adventure in his eyes. Burger is sure to bring a smile to your face and fill your home with joy. Burger thrives on interaction and loves to engage in activities with his human friends. He would be the perfect companion for an active person who enjoys spending time outdoors. While Burger is generally a social butterfly, he can be a bit timid and cautious in new situations. Patience and gentle encouragement will go a long way in helping him build up his confidence. Food is one of Burger's biggest motivators, which makes him the perfect pup for training. With positive reinforcement and a handful of treats, Burger is ready to learn all sorts of tricks and commands! In addition to his playful nature, Burger has a cozy side. He enjoys taking leisurely naps, right by your side! Burger would thrive in a home where someone has a flexible schedule and ample time to spend with him. An owner who can provide companionship and lots of love will be rewarded with a loyal and devoted furry friend. Quick Stats! -- Dogs: Does well with other dogs, with slow and appropriate introductions. -- Cats: Does not currently live with cats. Will require training if joining a home with a cat. -- Children: Does well with kids but do best in a home where he is the primary focus.

Story
Hello. I adopted Max a few months ago. He is well behaved, loveable, good with kids, potty trained, loves to play catch. As much as I want to keep him, I unfortunately cannot due to my youngest new allergy symptom to dog hair. This is something that I was not aware of. It’s a tough decision for me to make since Max has become part of our family. I would love to see him go to a loving home as he does not deserve to live in a shelter.

Story
Tot was rescued by Mutts of the Midway in late January. She is still a puppy at 6 months old and is currently 20 lbs (she will be a medium-sized dog when fully grown). Tot is a smart girl who thoroughly enjoys learning tricks and has been great at behavior training. She has gotten an A+ at house training and doesn't need potty breaks at night. She's a huge fan of being a couch potato and people-watching through the windows without needing to bark at those walking by. Food and treats are her weaknesses and is food/treat motivated. Quick stats! --Dogs: has not been introduced to dogs in the home --Cats: has not been introduced to cats --Children: has not been introduced to children in the home --Likes: people watching on the couch, food/treats, and learning new tricks If Tot sounds like the right fit for your home, fill out an adoption application today! muttsofthemidway.org/adopt
