Description:
This is "BEN"

Hey everyone, my name is Ben. I am a big goofy old boy who loves people of all heights, sizes, and ages. I love other dogs too. I am not the kind of dog who should live with cats. They are way to fun to chase.

Now don't get me wrong, I am not by any means a rambunctious boy. I am happy to play fetch in the yard and go for walks and lay by your feet while you do most of the work. Oh I do love barbeques. I can lay by that grill all day long.

I just really want a home of my own, with a family and a yard to play ball in. I will be forever grateful and I promise to be a good boy. I am housebroken and well mannered in the house.

Please won't you let me come home???

My original owner passed away and the rest of the family was not able to care for me, I guess. I really am not that hard to take care of. Just love me, pet me, feed me and I will give you unconditional loyalty and love for the rest of my life.

Why not take this opportunity to make a huge difference in the life of a sweet boy who needs some help?

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.
