Mars is a playful 2-year-old boy who is in desperate need of a permanent home after spending over 300 days at AAWL. Mars would appreciate a home where he is used to dogs and is given space and patience before opening up. Mars would prefer a home with older, well-behaved children, such as adults or high school students, so that new things can be scary but they can understand Mars' boundaries. Don't worry, you'll know Mars thinks you're special when he gets those super zoomies. Mars is an active boy who is always up for a long walk or hike. He's a favorite of staff and volunteers, and it's rumored that he gets the best cuddles, especially when he's being cuddled by Mars. Mars is picky with his dog friends, so he needs to meet his potential sibling (or foster sibling) before he goes home, not his cat sibling. If you'd like to give this sweet boy a chance, stop by AAWL's main shelter at 40th and Washington to meet him. Plus, his adoption fees are currently being waived, so you can bring him home for free.AAWL
