VERY RARE BREED!

RED MERLE PIT BULL WITH ICE BLUE EYES!

SWEET, GENTLE "DOUGIE" HAS NOBODY!!



We received a plea to help Dougie and after reading his story and seeing this face- we simply had to find room in our rescue to help him!

Poor Dougie was found on a rural road as a stray. He was so thin and hungry. Clearly left to fend for himself for quite awhile, Dougie looked terrible!

He has been at a vet clinic for the past month being treated for demodex mange (non contagious) which can be brought on by stress and lack of proper nutrition but thankfully, due to the amazing care he has received, is almost entirely free and clear of this condition now! His skin is healthy, the bright pink hue he's been sporting is almost gone and his coat hair is all growing back!

Dougie is a young boy and it's believed that at one time, he was someone's pet as is evidenced in his highly social personality. He LOVES people!

He is beyond friendly and is the kind of dog who would try and turn himself inside out to please you! Dougie is amazing with other dogs as well; just wants to make friends and play! Dougie seems to ignore cats.

This boy is sweet natured, friendly and exhuberant and is ready to bond!
He has made such good friends with the entire staff at the vet clinic where he has been cared for- he is truly a favorite of theirs!

Dougie is what is known as a "Red Merle" - a rare find within the American Pit Bull breed. His coat is white with beautiful burnt orange markings and his stunning, ice blue eyes are sure to turn heads everywhere!

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.
