Story
Cosmo is such a sweetheart! He is said to be a Husky and Akita mix and is around 2 years old. This poor baby was part of a cruelty case, as he was starved nearly to death. You wouldn't know it in his demeanor, and his doing great and putting on weight. All he needs now is a loving home. Midwest Animal ResQ offers a 30-day adjustment period within which you can evaluate the pet's progress and your adoption decision. If, within those 30 days, you determine your recently adopted pet isn't a good fit, you may return the animal and receive a MARQ credit that can be used toward the adoption of another animal. Our biggest priority is finding the very best match for you, and Completing Families one Tail at a Time! All dogs are spayed or neutered, microchipped, Heartworm tested, and current on vaccinations and preventions prior to adoption.

Story
Dutch has captured the hearts of our vet clinic. He has spent time there recovering after coming in with an injury to his eye. This doesn't slow him down at all. He is loving and affectionate and recently went on a Dog Day Out where he enjoyed nice walks and being outside.He participates in playgroups and would need to meet any potential dogs prior to going home. Dutch is a wonderful pet that wants nothing more than a home of his own.

Independence, MO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Lucy is an approximately 6 month old Husky mix. She is 33 pounds and is fully vetted, spayed and microchipped. Lucy is not yet potty-trained, but in all other ways is a good girl. Potty training would be easier with a crate and a fenced in yard. She has some normal puppy behaviors like chewing and jumping up. She is pretty good at sit and stay. She walks well on a leash. She gets along with kids, dogs and cats. Lucy is a sweetheart. She has tons of energy, loves to run and fetch and go for walks, but is also very mellow and will just lay and love you. Lucy loves to have the bridge of her nose scratched and to rest her little chin on your lap for pets. Lucy has great potential to be a wonderful dog for someone who has the time and desire to commit to teaching her to be her best self.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained,
Story
Skye is a sweetheart, with lots of energy. She thrives when she gets to go run in an open field or in a path in the woods, off leash. She has a beeping collar and responds well to it. She is a free spirit, and stays true to Husky roots. She is very vocal, but not at all aggressive. She is a pro at the Husky howl. We have had her since she was 3 months old. She is very we trained annd was raised with three small children- 3 yrs old, 2 yrs old, and 1 yr old. We love her so much; unfortunately, she requires more attention and exercise than we are currently able to give. She is AKC registered and we have her pedigree. She is not spayed, but is microchipped. If you are interested in adopting our lovable girl, we would love to talk with you more.

Story
We rescued Chichi in November from her previous owner, who was going to take her to a shelter. She mostly gets along with our 1 year old Husky mix but sometimes their play gets too rough and we need to separate them. We are rehoming her mostly because she chases, traps and tries to bite our cats. It has been something that we have been trying to work with on but nothing seems to help. She is very cuddly and gets along well with our kids. She is house trained but we do crate her when we are not home. She loves to snuggle and can sit and shake. She loves toys and water.
