Story
Meet Copper! This handsome chocolate-colored Chi mix is proof that the cutest dogs don’t always have a perfect smile! Copper’s adorable crooked teefs and little underbite give him a face you simply can’t resist. Copper is friendly with people and other dogs, and so far he’s been a well-behaved little guy. He’s got a beautiful chocolate coat, although it’s a little thin along his back from a flea problem. With some TLC, that gorgeous coat should fill back in before long! If you’re looking for a sweet, handsome little companion with a whole lot of personality and a smile all his own, Copper would love to meet you! ❤️ Interested in making Copper part of your family? Don’t wait — send in an adoption application today! Copper’s adoption fee is $300.00 which includes all shots, neuter, microchip and 1 month of heartworm preventative. If you are interested, please complete the Adoption Application on our website at a4apetpantry.org Disclaimer: Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most of our dogs, we are only guessing at breed mix.  September 28, 2026, 10:10 am

Story
Poor little Rebel was saved from someone giving her away at the age of approx 1 yr. Her household has changed alot and a new dog (much larger) started bullying her so her mom felt it best to find her a new home where she wouldn't be bothered by bigger dogs. She is shy with new people and really prefers if other dogs in the home they are her size and calm. We are told she is housetrained and a sweet cuddly girl once she trusts you. ##2825214##

Story
Biscuit was surrendered to animal control after his owner was incarcerated. He is a small dog and on the alpha side. He does ok with other dogs that are female or submissive netuered males. He has alot of energy and loves to tell you if something is bothering him haha. He does have an old injury as he was hit by a car last year and his prior owner took him to the vet but refused to have his leg set/surgery done. It does not affect his ability to be himself nor does it cause him any pain, however he may get arthritis when he is older because of the injury. We feel he would do best in a home with older kiddos over 10 years and adults. He is unsure about cats but does tolerate them well.  ##2428829##

Story
Little Chandler came from a divorce situation where he and his 31 friends and his human were living in a uhaul. She reached out for help and help we did. He is a bit of a tuff guy. Likes other dogs but is definitely a more dominant personality and will do best with female dogs or males that are submissive to him.  ##2683397##

Story
Meet Coco! (Also known as "Stud Muffin"... and occasionally "Cujo.")At a mighty 10 pounds, Coco has somehow convinced himself he's the toughest dog in the room.Strangers? Hard pass.He'll happily announce your arrival with barking, throw in a growl for dramatic effect, and if you ignore his very strongly worded opinions, he may decide his teeth need to join the conversation. Meeting Coco is less of a greeting and more of an interview and he's pretty selective about who gets the job.The funny thing is, once you're on the VIP list, "Cujo" magically becomes "Stud Muffin." He's just convinced that trust should be earned, not given away for free.Coco has successfully lived with both dogs and cats, proving he's capable of making friends... just maybe not with the mail carrier.Coco is looking for an adult home that appreciates a dog with opinions, respects his boundaries, and understands that the best relationships take a little work.After all, anybody can adopt a nice dog. It takes a special person to appreciate a little 10-pound menace with a secret sweet sideIf you've ever uttered the phrase, "I don't care if he growls, all dogs love me," Coco would like to wish you the best...with a different dog.Coco is currently in a foster home and can be seen by appointment only. If interested please fill out a preliminary and odas.org/canine and someone will contact you to schedule your visit.

Story
Silly Marvin Gardens has been waiting a long time to get his forever home ! This little guy ( 6 pounds ) was one of 5 chihuahuas in an trailer by themselves with the temperature inside about 115 degrees . He has come so far in our rescue and is just the funniest senior dog ever made . Marvin takes daily medication for a heart murmur and has had a major dental but has a few teeth left. Marvin needs time to decompress and needs lots of time to warm up to other pets. He loves his bed in his crate so we think its pretty easy to keep him apart at times This old guy loves a good nap , food and a few minutes of rowdy time with his people . Application is at stlsdp.org
