Description:

Meet Betsy,

Betsy is a beautiful little girl with the softest fur I have ever felt. She loves to romp and play with the other dogs in the house and just ignores the cats. When she first came to our house, she was extremely timid but is really warming up to humans. Now she has figured out that we will scratch her ears and rub her belly if she comes and sits by us!

Any correction directed towards her has to be done in a very gentle manner. Something must have happened in her past, and if you raise your voice, she runs and hides for a bit of time. We are working on different methods so she doesn’t scare.

We also discovered she is quite the climber. We would come home to find her lounging on the couch instead of in her enclosure….nothing destroyed though! Because of this, she will need a 5ft or higher fence to keep her safe!

So give this beautiful girl a chance. She is just a gem!

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.
