Description:

Note from the Foster: We have had Pumpkin for over 10 weeks now. Pumpkin is a unique pug: she is at a good weight, no skin or ear problems, snores very little, and loves to play with other dogs her size. She does like to chase the cats, but it is more of a game than a drive. She also is very bonded to her person and been known to stray from home to find her person, so a diligent owner is a must. Pumpkin would do well in a household where the dog to person ratio is 1:1 as she want to be with her person all the time and only her. She is fine with other dogs receiving attention from her person, but isn’t thrilled either.

She has NEVER pottyed in the house and I brought her to work with me for the first few weeks I had her and she did great. In fact, a forever home where her person is home all day, or can bring her to work every day would be ideal for her. She LOVES to go to work with me. We have never kenneled her. She does so good in the house, we just restrict her to a single room of her choice when we leave for work.

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.
