Description:
LOVE ME TENDER!

This should be the theme song for Sitka! This sweet boy was picked up as a stray in a rural area, and was going to be shot! But together with local rescuers we rushed to save this beautiful guy. He came to us covered in ticks, underweight, and dirty, dirty dirty! But none of that could hide his sweet nature and loving attitude. He sat patiently through 3 hours of "tick-picking" and bathing, and now looks and feels much better!

Sitka adores all people, and follows his foster Mom everywhere. He gets along with all the dogs in the house (small and large). He does not harm the cat, but likes to be in "his face," sniffing and licking and nudging - so a cat who is not used to dogs may not like it so much! Sitka is a gentle guy - he will react timidly to a loud noise, word, or movement, so no harsh training methods allowed!

Whoever gets this guy will be the LUCKIEST pet owners ever!!!!

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.
