Description:

Hi My name is Zelda!

I know, I am beautiful, but I am also very loving and really want to be somebody’s girl.

I have been at the local impound in Minnesota, I was once someone’s dog, even microchipped. But sadly, I sat in impound and my people never came for me.

See, I am what they call a Senior girl. I am 8 years young, gorgeous big brown eyes, beautiful temperament, and all I want to do is spend my last years in a warm home with someone who will love me no matter how “old” I get.

MARS took one look at me, and came and got me from the pound. I have a foster home who is going to take good care of me, but it's just not the same, is NOT my home.

Won’t you consider giving this old/young girl a chance? I promise to be faithful and to love you and lay by your feet and let you pet me for as long as you want.

Here is an update from Zelda's foster home:

Zelda is a great dog. She is calm and gentle, very friendly and sweet. She loves being around you, and will follow you around the house. She is super cute; her pictures don’t do her justice. Just wait until you see her trot and her ears bouncing!

Zelda loves to be petted, and will occasionally lick your face in return! She has very soft fur, and likes to be brushed. Zelda greets visitors and her foster parents at the door, but she doesn’t jump on them or bark – she is very well behaved. Zelda comes in when called (unless a neighbor is walking by and she just has to say hello!) and listens to the command sit when her food is being prepared.

We have truly loved having Zelda around and are excited for her to find her forever home. Don’t miss this wonderful dog.

*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.
