My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Meet Joanie

 

Joanie spent her first four weeks of life in hiding  with her mother and siblings in the bedroom of a teenage boy that was determined to keep her safe.  Unfortunately after being discovered by his grandmother, she and the rest of her family found themselves homeless on a two lane highway right as summer was beginning.  Joanie bravely came out of hiding to a strange human, alerting her to the family’s plight.  After enjoying several months of love, snuggles, and good food, Joanie would really like to spread her wings and find a family of her own.  Joanie loves a good snuggle and is content to sit next to you on the sofa while you work or watch TV.  She loves pompoms and crinkle balls, and has a lifetime goal of catching the red dot from the laser light toy.  She loves the occasional treat, and will wait patiently wait for attention when you are busy.  Joanie is a gentle soul, and is growing up to be a beautiful companion.  She gets along with everyone in the house, including one very large dog.  You won’t regret making her a part of your family.

More about this rescue

Piedmont Pound Paws (PPP) began as a group of volunteers working together to find loving/responsible adopters or licensed rescues for animals that were unfortunate enough to find themselves in the city of Piedmont, MO kill pound. Over time, homeless pets in extended areas, often including the MO counties of Wayne, Reynolds, Iron, Butler, Carter, & Bollinger, were also helped. Today, we continue focused on the Piedmont area while educating the community and helping to find resources for low income families to responsibly care for their pets.
