Meet Barkley!
Barkley is arriving soon from a rural MN breeder. He was the last remaining puppy from a litter that hadn't been adopted. Although it appears the dogs with this breeder are more socialized than with other breeders, this guy is on the shy side. The breeders want him to go to a good home because he is very lonely in a kennel by himself, and know he will benefit from a loving home.

Barkley is sweet once he warms up to you, but is VERY shy at first. Because he is a bit scared right now and because he is a hound, he will require a fenced yard. He would not do well off leash. It will take him a while to get comfortable in his new surroundings.

Barkley will be transported to Minneapolis on 9/13. He is a very happy puppy but is very shy. He will come over to be petted after a few minutes. Do you have room in your heart for this little guy?

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.
