Description:

URGENT: Milton is currently at a boarding facility and would love to get out and into a home where he can be with people more and lay in a nice warm dog bed!

Milton was found wandering a gravel road in the country with his friend Melinda. Their owner turned them loose to fend for themselves and then left town, abandoning the two dogs. An area vet clinic took the couple in and has asked MARS to help out with finding them another home. Melinda has now found her forever home... and it's now Milton's turn!

Milton is a very friendly little guy, but can be bossy with other dogs. He is looking for a foster or forever home where he can be an only dog and receive loads of love and attention from his people.

Milton is very independent and would be happiest in a home with older kids and adults. He wants a lot
of people attention and does need some obedience training. Milton walks well on a leash, sleeps well at night, and doesn't bark much. He really is a beautiful dog.

If you have room in your heart and home for a Basset buddy, please fill out a foster or adoption application by clicking on the link below. Thank you!

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.
