Description:
This is Rocky and Rocky was hit by a car and left for dead. A rescue angel swooped him up and got him to an emergency vet. The vet thought there was no hope for poor Rocky and he was in pretty rough shape. After a couple days it was determined that they would be able to save Rocky's hip. He had to wear a cast and a sling but he is doing so well and is so grateful to everyone that saved him. To make matters worse he is heartworm positive. MARS is covering his treatment but will need a quiet environment that will allow him to heal. Please give this wonderful lab boy a chance. Now he is looking for a forever home that will love him the way he should be loved. He is such a good boy after everything he has gone through. He will still need some time to build the muscle back up in his leg. He will be back to a loveable lab in no time!
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.
