Meet Moto!

Moto is a sweet, low-rider pup with short basset hound legs and a laid-back personality. He gets along great with other dogs and loves to follow his foster sibling around the yard—he can even walk right under her belly!

Moto is crate trained and settles in comfortably at night or when left alone. He often puts himself to bed in the evening and spends much of the day relaxing in his crate or nearby while his foster works from home.

While recovering from a minor limp, Moto is on a short rest period with medication, but he’s eager to explore and play when he’s up for it. He’s affectionate and regularly seeks out pets and attention.

He doesn’t seem to know basic commands like "sit" or "down" yet, but he’s a gentle, willing companion. His bark is deep and loud—used sparingly—but may not be ideal for apartment living.

Moto would thrive in a calm home where he can enjoy both quiet companionship and playtime with a dog friend.

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.
