Review for Midwest Animal Rescue & Services, Brooklyn Park, MN, USA
I have fostered 2 dogs for this organization, and there is clearly no situation that they consider to be "extreme". The first dog I fostered clearly had a behavior issue. I found out that subsequent to my returning him to be fostered by other people, he bit 3 different people - 2 of them were children. They still adopted him out to a family.
While fostering the second dog (thinking the first was a fluke), I was told I could take the dog to my vet for xrays, and MARS would reimburse my vet the normal fee they pay their affiliate. Should I be surprised they haven't followed through on this yet?
I came to Guidestar looking for their 990, and to confirm the name of the executive director.
If you want to donate to a rescue organization, there are many others that are better managed.
