Meet Smurf

Smurf is a sweet, gentle little boy who loves hanging out with his people. He is completely housebroken and can be left alone in the house with other dogs when we are away. He is an excellent little walker and thoroughly enjoys going outside! He has the energy & stamina of a young dog, but the leash skills & composure of a more mature dog. Smurf sits politely for treats and takes them gently - check out his new video!

He is coming out of his shell and beginning to play fetch for a bit. Mostly, he enjoys curling up with a cozy blanket or comfy pillow near his people. At night he sleeps at the foot of the bed, with, you guessed it - a soft, snuggly blanket! He is not bothersome, and stays put all night.

Smurf is making great progress being around people & multiple dogs and overcoming timidness. While he may prefer to be an only dog, he is friendly towards the four other dogs in the home. The introduction of the newest dog has sparked the 'fun' in Smurf and has brought out his playful side.

Smurf is sure to make a wonderful companion in a home with only adults or older children (age 16 +)

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.
