Take a chance on me,
You are my only Hope!


Hi my name is Rusty,
Im a seasoned family companion who is a victim of todays economy. The family that I have faithfully loved for the last 12 yr of my life has fallen of very hard times and are no longer able to care for me. Due to the situation, they are split up staying with various relatives just to have a roof over their head. No one can afford to feed an extra mouth as they are full to the brim with children and other family members. I am living with my dad in his semi truck while he tries to make ends meet. My family is devastated to know that I now need to look for another family to love me, but they know its what they need to do.

I promise to love your children as if they were my own. I will be a good role model to your other pets. I love dogs and cats and Im sure any other pets you may have. Im a small guy and wont take up too much space. I will even work for my food. I will keep your spot on the couch warm for you so after work you can just come home, relax and tell me all about your day. I will shower you with kisses on your worst days and laugh with you on your best. If we dont sound compatible, please tell your family and friends where to find me. I am terrified to go to the pound becasue I know an older guy like me wont stand a chance. You are my last hope. Thank you for caring!

Hugs and Kisses,
Rusty


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!

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.
