Description:
Hi, my name is Austin!!

I just moved to Minnesota recently. I used to live in another state, along with my brothers and sisters. Somehow, we ended up at the animal shelter there. I don't really know what happened. The place was so terrible, they didn't let us go outside to potty, and they didn't clean our kennels! Can you believe that? I ended up getting sores from sitting in my own potty. And, then the sores got infected, and they really itched and hurt.

Then suddenly one day, we were scheduled to be put to sleep! We were just babies! Fortunately, the nice people at MARS found out about it and rescued us just in the nick of time! Boy, were we happy to be out of there!

Once I arrived in Minnesota, I spent a week at the vet, so I could they could help with my sores. I'm glad to say I'm feeling much better now. I'm ready to find my forever home! Will it be with you?

I hope we can meet soon!
Love,
Austin

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.
