I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, and good with dogs.
This incredibly gorgeous girl is Daisy Mae. She is easy-going, has a great personality and has one of the most beautiful doggie smiles we've ever seen! Daisy Me is housetrained and crate trained. She's not a fan of the crate but is fine once she gets in there. She gets along well with most dogs and has the time of her life playing with the two male dogs in her foster home. She can be a little sassy so it'd be best if she was the only dog in her forever home so she can be spoiled rotten. She is such a happy girl, very easy-going and she really enjoys being around people. She's slightly submissive when you first approach her but after a few moments, she's crawling into your lap and wondering when you're going to take her for a walk. Daisy Mae loves to snuggle and is so sweet and beautiful that it's fun to cuddle up with her. This pretty girl is smart and already knows how to sit and is doing really good with 'down.' She's versatile and will be easily trained and taught fun tricks! Daisy Mae loves to be taken for walks and is a good girl on the leash. She likes going for car rides and does really well as a passenger. She's very energetic & playful when she's outside but once she's inside, she's quite calm & docile. Daisy Mae attended a recent event that was really crowded and she did a great job with the noise and all the people that were there. She had fun meeting everyone and even smiled for some pictures. She is quite a character and will make you laugh with her goofy way of sitting like a bullfrog.

Rescue Group Info...
Gateway Pet Guardians is dedicated to rescuing homeless pets in the St. Louis area, getting them great veterinary care, and finding them forever homes. We are currently a virtual shelter with all of our pets waiting for adoption in the care of volunteer foster families, however we are working toward a facility.
Gateway Pet Guardians is a 501c(3) tax-exempt organization. Donations are always greatly appreciated and are used to provide veterinary care for our foster pets, some of whom have been badly injured by automobile accidents, cruelty, neglect, or life on the street.
Follow us on Facebook and join our mailing list to be updated about adoption events.

Once you find an animal that you are interested in, email us and we will send your information to the foster family. You will fill out an adoption application and provide us with references. Once we have reviewed the application and contacted your references, we set up a home visit. Adoption fees are $150 for adult dogs and $195 for puppies. This fee includes shots, a spay/neuter and microchipping, as well as any other treatment the animal may have needed upon being rescued from the streets.
PJ Hightower started feeding dogs in East St. Louis, a very impoverished neighborhood in Illinois, in 1995 on her way to her sister's house. She began going on a regular basis from there and has not missed one single day since 2001. The dogs rely on PJ, waiting for her car every morning. They come running at its sound and most come straight up to her car door as she stops. She not only feeds, but medicates, domesticates and rescues when we have a home that will take one in.
A small group of people decided to form Gateway Pet Guardians around PJ's efforts in 2004. Gateway is fast growing and excited about what the future holds for the stray dogs of the East side. Or hopefully lack there of.
When we pull a dog, we give it veterinary care and put it in a foster home where it can learn to live as a dog should live and be loved. We find that with our "virtual" shelter system, the dogs tend to have better outcomes in their forever homes. Although we are saving to build a shelter, we still plan to keep our dogs in foster homes as often as possible.
We are a small group of people devoted to solving the homeless dog population in East St. Louis through education/outreach and spay/neuter programs. We would love your involvement!
