Description:
Charity just arrived from a high kill shelter in Missouri. Her future was bleak at this shelter, because they do not adopt out dogs. If they are not claimed by their owners, they are put to sleep. MARS was able to rescue Hope just in the nick of time. She was scheduled to be euthanized on Sat, Aug 15th.

Charity is a very sweet, innocent dog and doesn't deserve a fate like that. She is definitely part sheltie, but is taller than most shelties. She is now in a loving foster home in Minnesota. Could you be her forever home? Please help if you can, there are many more dogs waiting at this same shelter for help, and we have a limited number of foster homes.

UPDATE FROM CHARITY'S FOSTER: Charity is a very sweet dog! Her activity level is good. She likes to be playful and loved (she loves attention) We took her to the dog park yesterday and she loved it and everyone that met her fell in love . She gets along well with other dogs, people including kids. She likes to be outside in the grass. We do not have a fenced yard but put her on a chain to go outside, but at the dog park she stayed by us. She is still learning her name so it is hard to get her back to us but she stays close :)

She is in her crate when we are gone and when she sleeps at night. I am still trying to figure if she is potty trained, as we have been outside a lot.

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.
