Description:

Meet Oscar!!

Oscar and his brother Oliver were surrendered to MARS by their owner. These two sweet boys were living with their father when he had to leave them with grandma and she could not care for them properly. She has decided that they would be better off in a home that can give them the attention they need.

We would love for Oscar and Oliver to be adopted together if at all possible but it is not required. They are wonderful little boys who would love nothing more than someone they can love.

An Updadte From Oscar's Foster Mom

Oscar is a great little dog. He takes a bit longer to warm up to you, but once he does he loves cuddling and being close. He gets along great with the other dogs in the house and loves exploring the back yard. He will go and hide downstairs or in the kennel when we have people over, he is a little more reserved that way, but comes right back out when they leave. He does well with my kids and even sleeps in my daughters bed sometimes. He likes running off leash at a park near my house and going for walks. He is potty trained on a schedule or with a doggy door. Sometimes he will stand by the door to let you know he needs to go out, but not consisitently yet. Like his brother he needs a securely fenced yard to help him burn off some of his energy and someone who will give him walks and playtime. It would be best for him to go to another house that has another dog he could play with and keep him company. We would love to place him with his brother Oliver, but we feel he would do fine if they don't get placed together.

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.
