Notes from Matty's Heart & Soul Animal Rescue

Midnight Lagoon found himself unwanted in a high kill shelter in West Texas. He is good with other low-key dogs and kids. He is allergic to cats. All dogs and puppies require supervision and training.

Middy is a sweet and loving boy with a big heart and an even bigger personality! He loves attention and has come a long way since arriving in Minnesota. Middy is playful and energetic, often showing his enthusiasm with lots of vocal play. He especially enjoys lying in the sun and spending time near trailers—he’s a unique boy with a lot of charm!

Good With: People: Yes, after proper introductions. He has stranger danger and doesn't like direct eye contact with strangers. Once you are in his bubble he has no personal space and the pitty lean is perfected and made even better if you add a hinny scratch for him. Other Dogs: Good with most dogs as long as they are calmer and not dominant but can be selective initially. He doesn't like nose to nose meets initially. Cats: Good with cats, but he is allergic to them. So those are a hard pass to keep him feeling his best. Training: Middy is crate-trained and leash-trained, making him a great companion for daily walks and adventures. He enjoys car rides. Ideal Home: Middy would thrive in a home with: A fenced yard where he can bask in the sun. Older kids who can match his energy and playful nature after time. A family willing to provide daily walks and lots of love. Notes: "Middy is a total sweetie pie! He has made incredible progress since he first came to us and is ready to find his forever home. He has so much love to give and truly deserves to be loved in return."

Food allergies: Carrots, Sweet Potatoes, Flaxseed and Barley
