Her foster mom wants you to know:

Sassafras, we call her "Sassy", is a wild and crazy girl. She never stops moving. She is very affectionate. We are teaching her basic commands, Sit, Down, & Stay. We're also teaching her to retrieve a ball. We heard her bark for the first time yesterday, otherwise a very quiet girl. She does well with small children. Sassafras could be your very own if you please fill out the application to adopt her.

This girl is the friendliest! She could use a bit of a makeover and some TLC but is so willing to pay you back for your love! She's very gentle with food, good with cats and other dogs. She also enjoys some kick back time and playing with toys. She prefers no squeky toys thought... She thinks they're a bit weird. Loves belly rubs and Sassfras is even very good on the leash. She wants to spend time with her people and please them.

She's coming to Minnesota to start a new life and is looking for her New Forever Family.
In the mean time, she needs a Foster Home to care for her.

Won't you please give this diamond in the rough a place to stay and be the smiling face and hands of love that greet her when she arrives?

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.
