update for Ben: Ben is doing great! He is playful and friendly.. after he gets to know you. It takes him a little while to trust new people. He is shy but not aggressive at all. He loves to cuddle up next to you and sleep while on the couch, in bed, etc. He loves playing with his foster sister and is good with all dogs and kids we have introduced him to so far. He likes playing with toys and laying down with a good chew bone. He would be great with a family with lots of love and attention to give him. He is medium energy. He has good manners and is a very quick learner. Ben will be a wonderful loving family pet. He has TONS of love to give. Meet Ben! Ben is being rescued from a shelter where his time was up. He is a sweet little guy who has been very scared in the shelter environment and cannot wait to find a loving home to call his own. Please feel free to fill out an ADOPTION APPLICATION on our main website, www.midwestanimalrescue.org, by clicking on the Form/Applications link under Website Features. Thank You! 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.
