Description:

Meet Wicket!

Wicket has been a puppy mill breeding dog since birth... that's 9 years kept in a cage!  Wicket has never being someone's beloved pet.  Never lived in a home.  Never been treated with love and kindness.

 

To make matters worse, he was not even used for the last few years!  He was acquired by trade and kept in a cage that was too small for him, on the second row (closest to ceiling), under artificial light.  Because of his living conditions, this poor boy stays in a somewhat bent position and runs around in circular motions.

 

Wicket is looking for a kind and loving home that will give him time to learn to be with people and live in a home enviroment.  He will require another dog in the home and would do best in a quieter home with no young children.


To adopt Wicket, please complete one of our on-line applications by clicking on the adoption button below.  Thank you!

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.
