Description:

I'M LUCKY TO BE ALIVE!


There is not much history on Joe as he was dumped on a 
farmer's land.  The farmer tried to keep him but the 
neighbors kept shooting the dog.  His wounds are healed 
and he is just a really good dog looking for a new forever 
home and family to love.

Update from foster home:
We call Joe, Mater. He is a good natured southern hound. 
He has a true hound's face.  He gets along wonderfully with
all the dogs he has been exposed to.  He loves people and 
children.  

Mater rarely barks/bays unless there is something that really
has his attention -like the skunk in our yard!  He has bursts of 
energy but for the most part he just wants to sleep in the sun

all day long.  Mater has been working on his leash skills and has

come a long way.


Mater is super loyal and loving. He is a bit proctective with 
children and becomes nervous around a lot of rough housing
especially if it is an adult rough housing with a child.  Mater
does not jump up on new people but that hound nose loves to

sniff them out :c)

He is a wonderful dog that would love to meet you! If you are

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.
