Description:

I’m writing this bio as I lay on the beach, where I like to do this odd prancing
act between the lake (no swimming for me though, yuck) and the beach.  I’ve
enjoyed the long weekends this summer playing with the neighbor pups 
and all the kids.  

I listened fairly well to my mom and dad, but I do like to exert my 
independence by ignoring their calls every once in a while.  The runs
with my mom are quite enjoyable too, and I’ve learned quickly how to walk
properly on a leash.  

I also LOVE to play, but don’t realize how strong I am, so
I can quickly knock you over and lick you.  My mom and dad brought me to their
body shop where I warmed up immediately to all of the men and was great with the
customers.  I guess I'm not as shy as I thought!  What’s not to love?!  I know. 
I sound like quite the perfect pup, right?!  

As much as it pains me to think about leaving my foster home, I’m sure 
there’s a family just dying to bring me home with them.

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.
