Description:

6-12-2017 Update from foster: Ivy is a great dog. She has come a long way for the sick scared little runt that she was. Ivy loves other dogs, especially my 2 1/2 year old pit bull. She can still get a little scared of new things or fast things. Ivy is very treat motivated and her training is coming along. She is almost fully potty trained! She loves her morning walks, afternoon naps, and snuggling on the couch or sitting out by the bonfire at night.

Hi! My name is Poison Ivy, Ivy for short. They say I am a super hero - what ever that is. Foster mom says I am super at sitting and I try to be super at going potty outside. I know I am super at playing with my foster sister and brother. They are so big! I am super with the cat that doesn't like me but foster mom has to remind me to be gentle with the cat that thinks I am nice.

I am super when I meet stangers. Its was super-cool when foster mom took me to the patio at the coffee shop. I met some super nice people. I love walking in the woods with my foster family. It's super fun to roll in the leaves, chew on the sticks and run with the neighbor dogs.

It would be super if I had a family of my own, especially if they had another dog for me to play with. Even a hero needs a partner to rescue her sometimes!

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.
