Cypress has an incredible zest for life and loves being included in whatever his person is doing! His big, bright smile has the power to turn any frown upside down. This good boy brings the fun no matter what the situation.
He loves to chase the ball around the yard and is so fast that none of his foster siblings comes remotely close to matching his speed! He LOVES going for car rides and does well in the car. Walks are another popular activity… what dog doesn’t like walks right? However, Cypress practically goes into orbit when his leash gets brought out! It’s a spectacle to behold for sure – truly amazing!
He RACES into his crate when it’s mealtime and is a pro at staying in his crate when he's left at home. He's over the puppy chewing stage though so he sometimes gets to stay out in the bedroom when his foster owners go out.
He sometimes needs a gradual introduction to new dogs because he gets so excited that he’s not sure if he should be afraid or be playful. He has had dogs gang up on him before so he’s unsure if he needs to defend himself at first. He has been introduced to several new dogs in his current foster home and gets used to new ones within a couple of days now. In his foster home, he has good doggie manners and doesn't try to play with the ones that tell him they'd rather not play at the moment.
He is pretty good at meeting strangers, although every once in a while he gets afraid of men. Doesn’t take long to change his mind though if treats are involved. He has met a handful of different aged kids and he seems to enjoy getting attention from them. He’s not very big but he is a ball of energy so he might be too bouncy for toddlers.
Whoever adopts this boy will have no choice but to smile every day when they look at his smiling face and see his wiggle butt!
*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.
