Story
** SPECIAL NEEDS **  Level 4 Heart Murmur **  **REQUIRES FENCED YARD ** Meet 'Beans', an 8-1/2 yr old, 12 lb, Chihuahua Mix .  He's considered 'Special Needs' due to his Level 4 Heart Murmur, however, he's not on medication yet. He's housebroken and seems to ride well in a car curled up in a bed in the passenger seat. Not leash trained so he requires a Secure Fence Yard.  Beans is a "climber" using rocks/boards to jump up on. He's a Good Escape Artist and Door Darter whenever door is open.  He may enjoy a companion dog in the home to help him continue to thrive to be a great dog. At almost 9 yrs old, he's pretty much set in his ways. He also has a 'cloudy eye' but still sees okay.  Beans came from a very bad situation that included bitten by tons of fleas and ticks losing all his hair and he would love to find a family to give him a better life. If you are interested, 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. Bean’s adoption fee is $295.00, which 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
Welcome Mellie May to Needy Paws Rescue!  After her owner passed away, she was shuttled to a couple different homes before she came to NPR.  Mellie May is about 2 years old; potty trained with a short white coat.  She gets along great with cats but should probably be the only dog in the household.  She loves to play fetch and tug of war with her stuffy and go on walks although she is also content to lay on the couch.  She's a very easy dog.  She would make a great dog for a senior.  The last home said she was not good with small children but I don't know as I don't have any.  She's small to medium size.       If you are interested, 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. Mellie May’s adoption fee is $295.00, which includes up-to-date vaccinations, heartworm testing and preventative, spay/neuter and microchip.

Story
Peanut has a big dog personality and if he sees other dogs, he gets super excited, and the yipping sounds scary, but he just wants to play!! He's a nipper and he likes to jump on you out of excitement and although he LOVES kids, he should be in.a home with older kids Peanut is still young, and has plenty of energy to play and run.He has been known to be a runner- He will take off and think, it's a GAME and it will be hard to catch him, so careful at the doors nd fences ;) But smart sweet pup loves kisses and lay on your lap . He walks good on a leash i put 2 one on harness and collar since I don't want him to get loose. (harnesses are too easy to get out of, so a martingale collar is his best collar) He can upset a bigger or smaller dog if they don't have a tolerance for nippiness.In the face kinda of thing he loved to play and he runs super fast lol 😆 they would have to be extra careful that he never gets out of front.Door or takes off he laughing fast 😅 Poor little guy almost got run over on these big streets all alone, and we NEVER want that to happen to him again. So now you know more about the firecracker named Peanut. He is a doll!! ADOPT....DON'T SHOP!! Local adoption fee is $250 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes tranport to your area)

Story
Lotus 🌸 Named after the flower that rises and blooms beautifully despite the mud, Lotus is a quiet testament to resilience. Pulled from a rural shelter, she didn’t know at first that people could be kind. When she arrived at her foster home, she was unsure and fearful—but with patience, gentle care, and time, Lotus has started to trust and show her true self. Like her name, she is slowly but surely blooming. Lotus is good with other dogs, crate trained, and pee pad trained. She finds comfort in the presence of canine companions and would do well in a home that understands she may need a little extra time to feel safe. At this time, Lotus is not a cuddler, but as she continues to build trust, she may grow into enjoying that closeness. She is also not an apartment-type dog. Lotus will need a home where she can move at her own pace and feel secure before being introduced to things like walks and busier environments. Lotus is looking for a patient and understanding family—one willing to let her open up on her own timeline, just as her foster mom has done. With love and consistency, she will continue to grow into something truly beautiful. Local Only adoption fee is $200(in TX)

Hello I am Butters and I am fabulous! I am the sweetest guy once I get to know you. I am the biggest flirt ever! I would love to be the guardian of your home and yard. I take my warrior duties seriously 🤣. Do you need private security to escort you around your home? I am the guy for the job. I need to be in an adult only household, I promise to take my cuddle duties seriously. I do not like strangers so I do need time to get to know people. Once I know my people they are my entire world. Once I know you I love to be picked up, held, cuddled, naps ALL the things! I need to be in a household that doesn’t have a lot of people there or people coming and going because I am very protective of my home/people/yard. I am very smart and pick up on cues and words very quickly. I have not been cat tested. I am still working on my house training.
