Description:

Rosie has a very, very sad story. At a young four months old, she was starved, beaten and left to die alongside the road. Fortunately an 83 year old angel rescued her and saved her life.

Rosie's angel has now had a stroke and has suffered partial paralysis. She is no longer able to care for her and unfortunately Rosie needs a new home. This is devastating to all parties involved.

Rosie was raised with a schnauzer so she is good with small dogs and cats. She has been around children as young as 12 and loved them madly. She is housetrained, fully vetted and loves people.

She is very timid around men and new situations; because of this, we are asking that Rosie go to a home with children over the age of 10. Rosie will need a patient but gentle leader to help her learn that no one will ever hurt or abandon her again. We would prefer a home experienced with shepherds and shy and timid behaviors.

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.
