My story

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

Handsome Biscuit came from a tough situation. He and his siblings spent their whole lives in an outdoor pen on a reservation. But this sweet Australian shepherd mix has started a happy life and hasn’t looked back. He loves to play, thinks all toys are fantastic and will romp around with his canine buddies. But really, snuggling and cuddling are where it’s at.



Biscuit is about 8 months old. He is potty trained, sleeps in his crate all night, and is trustworthy hanging out in the house. He’s doing very well on the leash, even though he’s nervous about new things. His bravery grows by leaps and bounds every single day.



Biscuit is athletic and a quick learner. He would probably love agility where he could show off his speed and smarts. He’d prefer a home with a fenced-in yard so he could zoom around safely. Extra points to someone with herding dog experience who is around much of the day. He’d be fine without another dog, but a friendly buddy could help him learn and build more confidence.



Biscuit is the sweetest boy. His favorite times of the day are whenever he sees his human. He runs right into his person, jumps into their arms, snuggles them hard, and smothers them in kisses. Biscuit is being fostered in the St. Louis area.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The first step in adoption will be to fill out an application. Once the application is approved, we will contact you. We may also request a home visit which will be done by one of our volunteers. Our goal is to not only find our pups a safe home but ensure it is a good match for the adopter and the pup.

Our adoption donation fee is $350.00. This includes the spay/neuter and the pup being current on vaccinations, heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, and microchipped.
