Description:
Meet Katrinka! She didn't get a fair start to life, so she does deal with anxiety/fear. She will need a home that will be patient while she takes her time to warm up to you and a new environment. When she does, be prepared as you just made a new best friend! She'll meet you at the door with a big goofy smile, a wagging tail and continue to follow you around the house! She is comfortable around kids in the home, currently living with a busy 4 & 7 year old at her foster home. Skip the fancy treats and toys, this girl likes the luxury of soft dog beds, plenty of naps and an abundance of belly rubs! Don't worry, she's figured out how to communicate, she wants a scratch. So, be prepared for her to give you her paw followed by her big brown eyes begging "pleeease"! She has good house manners to add to her resume. Katrinka is working on continuing to build up her confidence on the leash. Her current favorite thing to do (after naps and scratches of course!) is hanging out on the deck to peacefully watch people in the sun.
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.
