Description:
Alona is a sweet and pretty girl. She came into the shelter with some significant injuries after another dog attacked her. The medical team in Texas has done a great job getting her the care she needs and her wounds are healing. Unfortunately upon their exam they found that she does have some degenerate changes to her back known as ventral spondylosis. Alona also did test positive for heartworm. She won't be ready for adoption for some time so we are seeking a foster that can help by providing her a stable home and ability to drive her to and from vet appointments as needed. *A dog with Heartworms is not directly contagious to other animals. Heartworms are transmitted by an infected mosquito.
URGENT: needs a temporary foster home, while we work to find a forever home. We cover all authorized medical expenses.
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. How to learn more about a pet: Complete the application (click on the button above) to start our process for adopting or fostering a MARS Pet. 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.
