Description:

Meet Charlie

Charlie is one of the most well mannered dogs I have met. He does not bark, unless he is really excited. He likes to meet new people and other pets. Very curious but, does not get into things.

He likes to be with people, but tolerates being by himself. He does prefer to sleep in bed with people versus a carrier. He sleeps all night. Only one accident his first day here since then no problems. He is very sweet and will make a great addition to any family.

This poor guy was previously covered in fleas and had a terrible reaction. He lost most of his hair but now with care and love he is growing it back beautifully.

Charlie much prefers sunny days, riding around the cities with the car windows down, and walking around the lakes. He thinks there's lots of good dog and people watching there! He is a happy little fellow and seems to like everyone, except mosquitoes!

Another update:

Charlie is so excited the heat wave has ended so he can go walking and visiting more often! Today he went to a birthday party with foster Mom's grandkids, age 2 and 5. He had a great time! He was very popular. The hostess kept sneaking him Sloppy Joes under the table because he is "so cute". The two year old kept giving Charlie kisses, which Charlie didn't mind at all. (Probably because the little boy's face and fingers were covered with frosting from the cake!)

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.
