My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Introducing Kylie and Sidney, the 6yo dynamic duo of toy Australian Shepherds who bring joy and warmth wherever they go. Kylie, the outgoing one of the pair, is always the first to greet new friends with her wagging tail and infectious enthusiasm. Sidney, on the other hand, may be a bit more reserved, but her sweet and friendly nature shines through in every interaction. Weighing in at a petite 15 pounds apiece, these two pint-sized pups may be small in stature, but they make up for it with their big hearts and boundless energy. With their playful personalities, they will thrive in a securely fenced yard where they can run and romp to their hearts' content. While they may not be fans of walking on a leash just yet, they are making great strides with their potty training, proving themselves to be quick learners and eager to please. Together, Kylie and Sidney are the perfect pair, reminding us all of the joy that comes from the unconditional love and companionship of our furry friends.
These sweet girls are retired breeder dogs who spent their entire life in a kennel raising puppies for money. They are loving life in a real home. They get along fine with dogs their size, they initially bark at big dogs. They are fine with dog savvy cats too. While they are not in a home with children they would likely do fine with older dog respectful children.
They are best of friends and will only be adopted together.
They are being fostered in St Clair Mo.
Their joint adoption fee is $500.

Additional adoption info

We want to make this easy and we want to be sure that the dog you are interested in is a fit for you. Finding a dog or pup that works with your schedule and lifestyle is key to our placement. The questions on the application help us know if the dog you choose will do well in your home. Number of hours your dog is home alone, fenced yard, exercise plan, other family members – pets included; those are important things we want to discuss with you and your chosen canine.  We do require a vet reference.

The application is on our website: Istodaymydayrescue.org. Complete and send. You can expect a reply within 24-48 hours.  As all of our dogs are in foster care, we will then contact the foster home and arrange a meeting.  The foster home might want to do a home visit or you might meet at a convenient location. If it is a good fit, some adoptions can be completed at that time of the meeting.

If your pup is under 4 pounds or an extra large breed at the age we typically alter our dogs, she or he might need to wait to be altered until the pup reaches a more appropriate age. This is to ensure that the pup is large enough to undergo anesthesia and old enough to not stunt the puppy's growth. If so, we will ask you to sign a spay/neuter contract. We will refer you to a low cost spay neuter program in your area. Sixty dollars will be reimbursed when the procedure is completed. 

All of our dogs are micro chipped, wormed, heartworm tested if over 6 months, on heartworm preventative, treated for fleas, and have age appropriate vaccines. Pups under 16 weeks require ongoing vaccines every 2 to 3 weeks.

More about this rescue

“Is today my day?” That is what every shelter dog asks. “Is today the day that I find a home, get a family, discover that I am a best friend”? We want to tell those dogs: “Yes, it is!”

We are a foster based rescue who aims to serve south central Missouri, an area with a low human population and a high canine population. Our mission is to help dogs from this area find homes in the St. Louis area through adoptions and transfers. After covering spay/neuter costs, 20% of each adoption fee goes to our emergency medical fund so we can help canine accident victims, pay for emergency C-sections, and other health needs. The remainder of the adoption fee goes to the dogs.

We are foster based and do not have a facility. Moms and pups are our focus, but we will help any dog we can. We are only able to accept a dog when a foster home is available. All dogs and pups are current on vaccines, micro-chipped, heartworm tested, wormed, and treated for fleas and ticks. All dogs over 12 weeks have been altered; if too young for this procedure, a spay/neuter reimbursement is provided when the procedure is done.
