Searching for a home in MN.



TX Southern Belle looking to experience our MN nice. Bella is a very special little girl who was rescued in the nick of time by her guardian angel. Not only was Bella found in very bad shape, she was also facing euthanasia because of her breed. The shelter Bella was in is not too fond of any bully breed type dogs. Her rescuer took her home to her family and they nursed Bella back to health. Her loving foster family has truly enjoyed their time with " Bella Marie Princess " and are sending here to MN where bullies are appreciated and cherished to find a safe loving forever home for her, to make sure she does not end up in a TX non-bully friendly shelter ever again.

Bella enjoys playing with everyone of all ages. This little girl also enjoys water so much that will join you in the shower or bathtub if you don't close the door. Although Bella's foster mom has raised her with children, cats and dogs of all sizes from Chihuahua's to rotties she would like to see her placed in a home with medium to large sized dogs to help her wrestle some of her energy away. Bella is also a cuddle baby who will shower you with lot's of kisses daily.

FUNNY STORY FROM BELLA'S TEXAS FOSTER:The rat story... My darling 11yr old daughter decided to do a little rescue on her own with a pet rat from a home that did not want it anymore. She hid it in her room in a shoe box. We had no idea she was starting her own vermin rescue. I was in the kitchen and realized that there were no dogs or cats in sight which is highly unusual in my house since there always under foot. I went looking for the animals and found them to all be in the game room. All of them were surrounding Bella. As I made my way through the crowd I saw my little Bella curled up in a ball with the rat underneath her arm, and she was cleaning it. What a sweetheart ! She saved the RAT from the CAT.

P.S. Bella Marie does, in fact have two different colored eyes!

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.
