My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Flaco: Your Loyal and Loving Companion!

Age: Approx. 7 years old Weight: Around 12 lbs

Flaco is a charming little guy who forms deep bonds with his humans and will quickly become your shadow. He loves being petted and will gently remind you not to stop if you dare try! He's also housetrained and has a sweet, affectionate nature.

Flaco's Ideal Home:

  • Prefers Women: Flaco has a special fondness for women and may need some time to warm up to men. He may bark at new men initially, but with patience, he calms down and becomes friendly.

  • Not a Fan of Cats: Flaco isn't comfortable around cats, so a cat-free home would be best.

Fun Facts:

  • Snuggle Buddy: Once Flaco feels safe and starts to trust you, he'll become your ultimate snuggle buddy, often burrowing into your neck for extra comfort.

  • Zoomies Alert: He enjoys playful zoomies from time to time, adding a burst of energy to his otherwise calm demeanor.

  • Foodie and Blanket Lover: As a typical MinPin, Flaco loves food and has a special affinity for sleeping under covers.

Flaco's foster mom says he's a doll, especially after he gets over his initial stranger-danger barking. He's been wonderful with her female friends once he gets past the newness and just wants to be petted.

Are you ready to welcome this adorable, food-loving, blanket-snuggling MinPin into your home? Flaco is waiting for his forever lady (or family) to shower with love and companionship.

 

To help pay for vet bills and care (transportation, food, toys, etc..) a $300 donation is requested at the time of adoption. All of our adoptions are contingent upon an approved application, home visit, reference check, obedience training agreement, and signing of adoption contract. All our dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped before adoption. Our dogs are companion animals that live indoors as part of your family. Please do not apply if your plan is to have them as outside dogs, garage dogs, porch dogs or outside kennel dogs.  We do not ship dogs. 

 



All of our dogs are in private foster homes. We are not a shelter with hours. A visit can be arranged after an adoption questionnaire has been filled out and sent in. Please try to email first. We are all volunteers that work so we can not easily take or make phone calls.

Additional adoption info

The first step in our adoption process is filling out and an adoption questionnaire that helps up match the right dog with the right person. Then our group reviews the questionnaires, then one of our members contacts the person that seems to fit to talk more and meet the dog and family. We do have adoption fees that help cover the cost of spay and neutered and vaccinations. Our fees also go into a general fund that help us take care of some dogs come to us with health extra health needs.

More about this rescue

We are not a shelter but a small group foster homes. We rescue dogs from high kill shelters and puppymills. We also take owner surrenders. All of our dogs are spayed and neutered and have current vaccinations before being adopted.
We are a "network" of volunteer rescuers in the Midwest. Many of us have known one another for years from helping with various local rescue groups, shelters, and national breed rescue groups. All of us have had the experience of coming across a dog that needed help that didn’t have a rescue group that could take them into their program. We were finding that regardless of breed or whether a dog is "purebred", there are many of us out there who wanted to help these dogs and need a place to list them. Therefore, we decided to start Midwest Dog Rescue Network to help rescuers help dogs that would otherwise "fall through the cracks". We are a collection of rescuers and some good-hearted individuals, who are just trying to help as many good dogs find homes as possible.
