Description:

This gorgeus guy is coming to us from a rural impound facility, where his time was up! He was picked up as a stray, and never claimed by his owners.

We don't know much about him yet, except that he is a sweet, handsome and loving guy. He is estimated to be about 2-3 years old. He has been tested with other dogs, and does just fine. He also met the office cat and had no response; however, we don't know how we will react around cats once he is settled.

Why not take this opportunity to make a huge difference in the life of a sweet boy who needs some help?

Please feel free to fill out an Adoption Application on our main website, www.midwestanimalrescue.org by clicking on the Form/Applications link under Website Features.

Thank You!

UPDATE FROM XANDER'S ADOPTIVE HOME, JULY 24TH, 2011:

Xander is doing well.  We just got back from a road trip for two weeks and
he had a blast.  We are preparing to go backpacking for 3 weeks in
September.

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.
