Description:

From the foster:

This sweet 8-year-old is 10 lbs of pure affection. Lorrie is a low-energy lap dog who loves lounging, gentle walks, and spending time with her humans. She’s house-trained on a schedule, friendly with small dogs, and adores everyone she meets.

She’s not crate trained but sleeps through the night accident-free in a dog-proofed space. She’s working on her confidence and basic obedience and does great in the car and on leash.

Lorrie would thrive in a calm home—solo or with another small dog—and is ready to snuggle her way into your heart.



From the Vet: 

Lorax is a lovely lady with a few minor medical conditions going on.

She has very small cataracts in both eyes that are not causing any pain or significant vision loss but could progress as she ages and should be monitored. She also has a precipitant in one eye that can refer to several things, usually related to deposits or buildups of substances within the eye structure. The precipitant is not painful or significantly affecting her vision at this time so no further work up or treatment will be done but could be needed in the future.

She does have allergies and associated ear infections that will require lifelong management. She is doing well with the current management medication which is monthly cytopoint injections. She will be spayed, have her hernia repaired, and have a dental cleaning with multiple teeth extracted on 8/22.

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.
