DICKENS is your dog!


Dickens came in to our rescue from an out of state animal control facility where his future was very grim. We couldn't let this beautiful boy die!!

Dickens ended up in the pound because his owners didn't want him anymore. Poor Dickens is just desperate for someone to love him! He is a very good dog and just wants to be appreciated.

Dickens knows basic commands, such as sit, down and stay (short term). He walks well on a leash, and is completely housebroken. He plays well with other dogs.



A note from his foster mom:


He is doing just great and is so funny
to have around. He loves being outside in the snow- running and playing. As you can see, after an afternoon of play he loves to curl up on a blanket and take a nap. I think he would do great with another dog and is really good with kids.We don't have any cats so I'm not sure how he would react to them. My niece and nephew (they are 4 and 2 yrs) were around him all Christmas and he was a perfect boy. His favorite thing above all else is being with people!

He is very smart and knows how to sit, shake, and lay down. He is very potty trained and hasn't had one accident in the house. He also rides really well in the car and loves to go on short trips.


Dickens would be a great addition to any family!

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.
