Description:

Hello, I'm a one-year old Mexican girl named Maya.

I'm very sweet, affectionate, and, of course, as beautiful as a Mayan princess.

I'm house-trained and, after a few days in a foster home, have found my routine.

I love going for walks. I also like naps and treats. I like playing with my toys, too.

What I really like (since it's cold outside) is to sit by the sliding door and watch all the birds at

the feeders and all the people and animals walking the trail outside.

I'm still a bit skittish about meeting other dogs and people, but it's getting easier. I am very comfortable

with my foster family.

I have not met any cats or children yet, so I'm not sure how I would react, but I like to play, so I'm sure I

would get along with them or any other dogs.

I am a very quiet young lady and have only barked twice in four days and that was to let my foster mom

know that she had spent too much time on the computer with her back to me. Yes, I'm shy, but I like

attention and a nice rub now and then.

I am happy to be here in Minnesota and have already developed a trusting bond with the people around me,

so if you would consider giving me my "forever home", I would be your most devoted friend.

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.
