Description:

*Please let me know if you can help- the current owner would like to schedule their euth appointments ASAP if these girls cannot find rescues for this Sat*

If you can't help them, please keep them in your thoughts. They deserved to be remembered, even if they are not saved...

To some people... money is all that matters. Gemma spent 8 years as a breeder dog -her only purpose to deliver litter after litter of pups to make her owner money. Now...without rescue on Saturday she would have been euthanized. There is no happy retirement in the mills. If you stop producing... you are no longer needed.

Gemma is now in a foster home... and is turning out to be quite the character! Her tail never stops wagging and she loves being pet. Her favorite thing to do is find blankets or towels and drag them across the room -quite comical to watch!

Gemma is such a short little girl... almost looks like she has no legs! She is beautiful and will make a wonderful companion! She would do best in a home with older or no 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.
