I NEED A NEW FOSTER HOME! 

EVEN THOUGH I AM THE BEST DOG IN THE WHOLE WORLD,
 MY FOSTER SISTER DOESN'T WANT TO SHARE HER HOME WITH ME. 

I KEEP TRYING TO WOO HER, BUT I JUST CAN'T AFFORD WINE AND ROSES!  :0)

CAN I COME LIVE AT YOUR HOUSE?


Meet Bolo!

Meet Bolo (affectionately called Sheldon by his foster parents).  Aside from his striking blue/brindle coat and beautiful green eyes, Bolo is a dog that wants nothing more than to please everybody he meets.   He has a bully smile and kisses waiting for everyone he meets.  He currently lives in a household with a 2-year old boy, several cats, and another Am Staff.  His foster parents are amazed at how gentle Bolo is around their son and how respectful he is of the cats in the household.     They have also noted that he has had no accidents in the house, plays very well with other dogs, loves to lie on the couch and watch T.V with you, and already knows how to sit.   His foster parents think he is very smart and in the course of a week have taught him "down" and "leave it" (which he is very good about).   A couple of other things his foster parents really like about Bolo:  He rarely ever barks, enjoys running errands in the car, likes sleeping under the covers with you (and being as close as possible to you in general), and usually rests his head on your lap when he is next to you.

         Bolo has also been trying very hard to become his foster sister's best friend.  She is an older female Am Staff who has decided she would like to be the only dog in the house.  Even though she isn't very friendly towards him during the day, that doesn't stop him from curling up next to her a night and giving her kisses while she sleeps.  Bolo's foster family is heartbroken that they can no longer take care of Bolo because of his sister's grumpy attitude.   They think he is the perfect dog and know that anyone who meets him will feel the same way.   

URGENT: Bolo needs a temporary foster home, while we work to find a forever home. We cover all authorized medical expenses.

You simply provide a safe, loving home!

Why not take this opportunity to make a huge difference in the life of a sweet dog 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.
