Just Arrived



Peaches camefrom a rural puppy mill. She had never lived a day of her life as a normal pet in a home, with the love and attention a pet deserves. She likely spent 24 hours a day in a crate, where she had to eat, sleep and potty. It is possible she had never even been petted in her life. Thank goodness she has been rescued from that life.

MARS has partnered up with a great facility, that used to be an impound facility and is now a rescue. Many puppy mill breeders bring their unwanted dogs to this facility. This rescue ensures every dog that leaves there is spayed or neutered and fully vetted. In addition, they spend time with each of the dogs to begin their socialization, and to get them used to human interaction. This extra care and attention gives these dogs a great jump start to becoming a beloved family pet. Now they need our help to find homes for these cuties so they have openings to help more dogs in need.

Peaches has a deformed front leg that curls under her body. She gets around just fine, and it does not require medical attention. She is a bit timid, but craves attention. She has begun working on potty training, but is not completely potty trained. She will continue to need help with socialization and adjusting to life in a home environment. Fenced yards and a home with other stable dogs to show them the ropes are best for dogs coming from this type of situation. We have secured a foster home to help this sweet girl adjust to normal home life.

Find out how rewarding it can be to teach this poor girl how to love and be loved.

A NOTE FROM HER FOSTER HOME:

From foster home:

Peaches is a total sweetheart. She loves to sit on my lap and follows me around the house. She is also coming along on her potty training but isn't eager to go out in the cold either. She gets along fine with the other dogs but doesn't seem too interested in interacting or playing with them. She loves bed time when she can sleep on my bed with me.

*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person!  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. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!

Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process. 

*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.

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. 

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. 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.
