Princess, and her sister Dutchess, belonged to a very loving family who recently lost their home. They were raised around grandchildren and behave beautifully in a house or on a leash.

Princess is definetely the more submissive and will work well with any other large dog.

Both girls like to chase cats so a home with small dogs or cats will NOT be a good fit.

UPDATE FROM HER ADOPTER:
Hi Tracy,
Yes, things are going well now that she is familiar with the daily routine. I had just sent an update to Jennifer a couple weeks ago.

I have renamed her Stella. We completed school for shy dogs last week and they've given me some good tools to help her get over her shyness. I also take her shopping at PetSmart to get her used to being around strangers and she's improving. As soon as I signed the papers on her I got her up to date on her vaccinations and got her heartworm prevention started.

She has done well at the groomer and had a short stay at their kennel while I was out of town for a couple days and did fine.

She is able to have free run of the house while I am gone as long as I leave her with a Kong stuffed with treats and peanut butter.

She loves her stuffed toys and tennis balls. She really is a very sweet girl and I'm happy to have her here.

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.
