Story
Meet Weston    Looking for a loyal shadow who will love you with his whole heart? Weston is your guy.   This sweet, affectionate boy loves being close to his people. He'll happily lean in for hugs, rest his head in your lap, and follow you from room to room as your devoted sidekick.   Weston is at the tail end of puppyhood, so you get the best of both worlds: he's fully potty trained but still has that fun, playful energy. He enjoys walks, chasing a ball in the yard, and relaxing nearby while his people work or watch TV. He sleeps soundly all night next to his people and can be left home alone for a few hours without any trouble.   Weston can be a little cautious with new people and new places, but once he trusts you, he's incredibly loving and loyal.   He enjoys other dogs but does best with clear boundaries around food, toys, and high-energy play. Because of this, he'd thrive either as the only dog in the home or with a calm, compatible canine companion. Weston would do best in a home with older children.   His ideal family is looking for more than a pet — they're looking for a best friend. If that's you, Weston is ready to love you for life.   If interested, please  complete the  Adoption Application  on our website at  www.NeedyPaws.org  and we will contact you.  Adopters must live within an hour’s drive of St. Louis, MO. Our $295 adoption fee includes up-to-date vaccinations, heartworm testing and preventative, spay/neuter and microchip. We are a 100% foster-based rescue and all of our dogs live in approved foster homes. We are dedicated to finding the best Forever Homes, and will perform home visits and conduct veterinarian and reference checks for each potential adopter.

Story
Brandi is a 2 year old Boxer mix fueled by zoomies, snacks, and pure chaotic optimism. She’s got unlimited energy, a nose that can detect treats from approximately three zip codes away, and a playful personality that keeps life entertaining. Brandi is still working on some basic training, but she’s eager, smart, and with a little time and consistency, she’ll catch on quickly. Beneath all that bouncy energy is a sweet girl who just wants someone to have fun with and love her forever. 🐾💨

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org 🐾🥧 Well hello y'all — I’m Moon Pie! 🥧🐾 (2 Years • 70 lbs • Male • Big Goof Energy Included) Yep, Moon Pie — like the sweet treat and like Sheldon’s Meemaw calls him on The Big Bang Theory. Because when you’re this lovable, wiggly, and impossible not to adore, you deserve a name that sounds like a hug. And let me tell you… I am a hug in dog form. I’m a big, lanky, floppy, happy boy with a giant heart and zero shame about belly rubs. I will dramatically roll over, squirm, wiggle, and grin while you rub my belly like it’s my full-time job (spoiler: it is). My foster dad calls me a total goof — and honestly, I take that as a compliment. I’m fully house trained (very proud of this accomplishment) and I’m doggie-door certified. If the door is ever locked, I politely wait like the gentleman I am instead of panicking or causing chaos. On walks, I usually stroll along nicely on a loose leash… unless a squirrel appears, or a potential new friend crosses my path, in which case I briefly but only briefly, forget my professionalism 😅 🐾 Moon Pie’s Fun Facts & Credentials: ✔️ House trained & crate trained (I relax quietly when you leave) ✔️ Uses the dog door like a pro ✔️ Walks well on leash — excitement moments included ✔️ Quiet at home — not much of a barker ✔️ Loves toys and can entertain himself like a one-dog circus ✔️ Knows “sit” and “stay” and takes treats gently ✔️ Super smart, eager to learn, and very trainable I’ve lived with a senior dog and we got along great — though I’ll admit, sometimes I forget not everyone wants to play as much as I do. I’d love a dog buddy who enjoys some playtime or a human who’s happy to help me keep polishing my manners. I really want to be the best boy. Oh — and if you’re into running or biking? Congratulations, you’ve just found your new workout partner. I love keeping pace and cruising alongside you like it’s no big deal. At the end of the day, I’m sweet, affectionate, goofy, active, and full of potential. I’m the kind of dog who brings laughter to your yard, calm to your home, and loyalty to your heart. If you’re looking for a loving, slightly ridiculous, incredibly charming companion with sweetness galore and is Meemaw-level approval… I think we might be a perfect match. 👉 Apply today at haydudeequine.org and bring home Moon Pie — the snack-sized name with the full-sized heart. 🖤🤍🥧🐾
