Description:
Meet Sparky!

Sparky has been in impound before. This time the owner doesn't want him back and has left him to be euthanized.

We at MARS offered him a home.

Please help us help him feel secure, finally!!! He is well mannered, housebroken, loves other dogs and thinks people are pretty cool too.

UPDATE FROM FOSTER:

Sparky is awesome! He is well mannered and loves to cuddle! Sparky gets along well with my dog and is curious about the cat, but does not chase him. He wants to be with people and is terrific with all my friend's children, no matter the age. There have been no potty accidents, he is able to hold it up to 10 hours if I get caught in winter weather traffic. I have been taking him to the members only indoor dog park and he loves to run and play. At the dog park he goes up to all the humans for a pet or cuddle, he is very popular. He is gentle with the little dogs and will follow puppies or small dogs around in curiousity. Overall he would make anyone a great dog!

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.

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.
