Description:

Sky is approx 4 yrs old and came from a hoarder in southern, Mn. When we first met Sky she was shy and timid but now she has learned to love and trust people and will meet you with her tail wagging! She is affectionate, loving and always greats her rescue mom with lots of kisses!

She is kennel trained and great with other dogs and cats. She walks great on a leash and loves the exercise. She would prefer a quiet home with kids over the age of ten who are gentle and respectful of her space.

UPDATE FROM SKY'S ADOPTERS JULY 13, 2011:

Sky is doing WONDERFUL.  She now has put on about eight pounds.  I groom
her every day and we walk at least two to three miles a day.  She gets to
run off leash and has learned to just go on the path and not out to the
road.  She and Sasha are really starting to bond and when Sash is outside
she wants to be right with her.  She comes to me most of the time now.  I
give her really good treats everytime she comes in the house and she is so
grateful.  I know it will take some more time to gain her trust but she
has made big strides already.  We even gave her a bath one day and she was
so patient.  I truly just love her and she is such a good girl.  In a few
months I think she will really acclimated to everything and everyone
around here.  All our renters are so kind to her and she is starting to
lose the run away fear she had.  Little by little.  She eats good and her
coat is starting to shine up some.

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.
