Sweet, mellow older gal seeks forever home!

Meet Ashland!

Dog social
Housetrained
Walks good on a leash.

When she arrived into our foster care program poor Ashland was not only very overweight, but she had severe ear infections in both ears and skin problems that required medicated baths. She was on so many medicatons (including daily seziure medication) that our vet had to take her off of everything and start fresh to be able to better assess what her true medical needs are going forward. The vet put her on medications to help her ears and skin which she has used for the past month.

She has been eating healthy grain free food which has been helpful for her to start dropping a few extra pounds as well as helped her skin/coat. In the month that she's been at her foster home she has now begun to heal from all of her immediate health problems and will be visiting our vet soon for a recheck. At that time they will determine what medications (if any) she will need to take on a regular basis. She has been seizure free since going off her medication so it is possible this condition may be correcting itself now that her health is getting better, but only time will tell.

Now that she's adjusted to life in her foster home Ashland is doing very well. She and 1 of the 2 other resident dogs have even become best friends. Her foster mom simply adores her and says that she's just the sweetest dog ever.

Ashland will need an adoptive family that will love her and continue to take care of her health needs going into her senior years. If you give Ashland a chance, she will show you a ton of love and companionship in return.

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.

Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS. We do not transport to potential adopters.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. 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.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

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 without knowing a pet’s full history.
