Meet Franklin
*house trained
*mellow and well-mannered
*likes squeaky toys and cuddles
*good looking

Who could resist the face of this chunkalunk? Franklin is such a sweet boy. He likes to sit in the sun and relax get pets. He would make a great addition to any family. See his pics before his grooming below. He is a lot more comfortable now!

Franklin is a lovely boy who loves to cuddle & please.  He gets along well w/his Affenpincher Mix roommate.  His coat is coming back wonderfully and his nails have been trimmed. He walks well on a leash & comes when you call (sticks around, doesn't take off).  He eats his dog food, likes the occasional treat (will sit up pretty & beg),  but is not a scavenger. He barks when he needs to go out, and when he wants to come in (housebroken). He sleeps on floor on blankets in his Fosters bedroom at night, enjoys playing with squeaky toys, and only gets up on furniture when invited.  He is very mellow & would make a good companion for a household with adults  & older children.

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.
