Description:
Hi there, 

I just wanted to check in and let everyone know how good I'm doing!
My foster mom is the best thing since sliced bread!  She has a big house and little fuzzy things that purr when they walk by.  Mom says thy are called bats...oh no wait...CATS, that's what it is...CATS! I think they're weird so I just ignore them.  One of them likes to hang over the edge of the table and bat at my tail! Annoying little things I say.  I'm not sure why anyone would want one ;)  when they could have someone as wonderful, playful and cuddly as ME!

My foster mom also has this great yard with a fence so I can run around outside.  Boy do I love to be outside, especially in the snow!  I am starting to to the hang of playing, but not sure why you people throw my toy so far away if you want me to play with it.

I respect my foster moms stuff and I have never chewed on anything that wasn't mine...even the cats toys!  I get along with everyone I meet, others, even kids!  My foster mom brought another dog home to stay with us.  She's pretty shy so I spent a couple days hanging out near her so she would feel better.  But I still prefer cuddling with my foster mom on the couch.

It's pretty swell here but I'm ready to show off all my skills with my forever family.

Love,
Dori

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.
